[Verse 1]
I wore the dusk like lace
Walked through the iron gate
Riley saint, hold your breath
I came to change the shape

Black velvet on my throat
Gold on a sharpened blade
Every step says my name
Every fear bows out of place

[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that low choir rise
Feel the floor go still
I was born in the dark
And I learned to rule it well

[Chorus]
The dark side, call my name
The dark side, burn in gold
Riley saint, rise again
Make the whole world fold
The dark side, in my veins
The dark side, cold and whole
I don’t kneel, I don’t break
I take the throne

[Verse 2]
Glass crowns in shattered halls
Fallen saints in a row
I can read their hungry eyes
I know what they want to know

No mercy in my hands
No mercy in my stare
I can make the silence kneel
I can make the lions scared

[Pre-Chorus]
Hear that low choir rise
Feel the shadow breathe
What they called their curse
Now it’s dressed in me

[Chorus]
The dark side, call my name
The dark side, burn in gold
Riley saint, rise again
Make the whole world fold
The dark side, in my veins
The dark side, cold and whole
I don’t kneel, I don’t break
I take the throne

[Bridge]
Step by step, I cross the line
No saint survives this fire
If the crown is made of war
Then I wear it higher

[Final Chorus]
The dark side, call my name
The dark side, burn in gold
Riley saint, rise again
Make the whole world fold
The dark side, in my veins
The dark side, cold and whole
I don’t kneel, I don’t break
I take the throne
