Lyric

Ash on my sleeves

Iron in my teeth

I crossed the frozen fields

For the name you keep

Your castle burns low

Under wolf-black rain

I know the oath by heart

I wear your shame

Hear the drums

Hear them call

Old blood wakes

When banners fall

Crimson ronin bell

Crimson ronin bell

I will not kneel again

Crimson ronin bell (Bell)

Crimson ronin bell (Bell)

Break the gate

Take the head

Steel on the tatami

Footsteps in the snow

Your blade kissed silk once

Now it takes my throat

I left my father’s tomb

I left the monk’s prayer

I chose the empty road

I chose the fire there

Hear the drums

Hear them call

Old blood wakes

When banners fall

Crimson ronin bell

Crimson ronin bell

I will not kneel again

Crimson ronin bell (Bell)

Crimson ronin bell (Bell)

Break the gate

Take the head

Hush now

Moon over ash

One last breath

Then I strike back

Crimson ronin bell

Crimson ronin bell

I will not kneel again

Crimson ronin bell (Bell)

Crimson ronin bell (Bell)

Break the gate

Take the head

Crimson ronin bell

Crimson ronin bell

My name survives the red

Crimson ronin bell (Bell)

Crimson ronin bell (Bell)

I rise

I rise instead
