They stand, some divided
This wall is frozen sided
It stretches far along and
Keeps the others out of seven lands
Dressed all in black and
Hardened by lives forgotten
Guilty or not they’ll find life
So when the night gathers
My watch begins
It won’t end until my demise
I might be a criminal
Who still protects you
To live is to die by my post
A vow condemns me
I pledged all my honour, I swore to the wall
A sword in the darkness, I stay till it falls
I’m the light that brings the dawn
Through darkened nights
Valiant, we wait for the storm
A watcher on walls
Winter is coming, I feel it
I’m the fire that burns
The heat that will ward off the bite of the cold
I will die on the wall
The nights feel much colder
My lungs sting as I breathe
I’ve seen the dead walk and
I fear what might be coming soon for me
While strings are pulled in
This game of thrones that steals
Attention away from what’s real
We need more men to fight them
What lies beyond the wall
These wild threats are calling
Seeking the other side for home
For this night and all the nights to come
Only three keeps remaining
You know I’ll be here waiting
Abandoned empty halls
I’ll never father children
Have no wife, hold no lands
The summer soon is over
I might be looked down upon
But still I serve you
A shield to the realms of men
A horn for the sleeping
What’s left of my honour I gave to the black
An evil returning, the dead are back
