(Verse 1)
In the grand hall where the candles flicker,
Stood a mighty orc, her heart growing thicker.
Guarding the noble, her love shining bright,
But fate had a twist, in the midst of the night.
(Chorus)
Oh, guardian of shadows, fierce and true,
When love turns to terror, what will you do?
A caught breath in silence, a moment so brief,
The weight of the past brings impossible grief.
(Verse 2)
Cheese on the platter, a smile on her face,
But the laughter turned choking, a perilous place.
Time stood still as she gasped for her breath,
The guardian's heart raced, a whisper of death.
(Chorus)
Oh, guardian of shadows, fierce and true,
When love turns to terror, what will you do?
A caught breath in silence, a moment so brief,
The weight of the past brings impossible grief.
(Bridge)
She ran from the room, the walls closed in tight,
Memories crashing, eclipsing the light.
The screams of the past echoed in her head,
Each furniture throw, another word left unsaid.
(Verse 3)
Broken tables and chairs, chaos unfurled,
In the dark night, she fought with her world.
Shadows of laughter now turning to pain,
A guardian lost in a tempest of rain.
(Chorus)
Oh, guardian of shadows, fierce and true,
When love turns to terror, what will you do?
A caught breath in silence, a moment so brief,
The weight of the past brings impossible grief.
(Outro)
As the silence fell, she found her way back,
To the noblewoman’s side, in the still, she unpacked.
With strength now renewed, she vowed to defend,
For love is a battle that will never end.
