Two Graves and a Promise
TitanChord
I dug one grave with steady hands,
For the oath I swore, for the broken lands
The other waits, cold and wide,
For the man who swore and lied
Two graves and a promise made—
One for the past, one for the blade
You can’t outrun what the earth will keep,
Two graves whisper where the sinners sleep
The vow I made was carved in stone,
Not in the church, but in marrow and bone
I’ll walk this trail ’til the vow is fed,
’Til silence speaks and the dust turns red
Two graves and a promise made—
One for the vow, one for the shade
No man cheats the dirt too long,
Two graves wait where the weak grow strong
They say revenge won’t set you free…
But the grave don’t ask, and neither do we.
Two graves and a promise made—
One for the oath, one for the blade
The night will know, the dust will see,
Two graves dug… and one is for me.

Lyrics
I dug one grave with steady hands, For the oath I swore, for the broken lands The other waits, cold and wide, For the man who swore and lied
Two graves and a promise made— One for the past, one for the blade You can’t outrun what the earth will keep, Two graves whisper where the sinners sleep
The vow I made was carved in stone, Not in the church, but in marrow and bone I’ll walk this trail ’til the vow is fed, ’Til silence speaks and the dust turns red
Two graves and a promise made— One for the vow, one for the shade No man cheats the dirt too long, Two graves wait where the weak grow strong
They say revenge won’t set you free… But the grave don’t ask, and neither do we.
Two graves and a promise made— One for the oath, one for the blade The night will know, the dust will see, Two graves dug… and one is for me.
