- Iron LyricsThe silence breaks the ground
A shadow is riding the horizon
An arcane man arrives to town
Remorseless and condemned
Tasted the snake's poison
Broken every bone
Twelve thousand gunshot wounds
But there's nothing that whiskey can't cure, oh
Ride through the crossfire
Ride through the flames
Like a predator in the night
The eagles fly into eternal sunset
The heroes die, dying for their pride
Awoken to heavy galloping
I heard the blasting whiplash
Eyes are filled with lust to kill
Beware, he's crying out your name
Now the time has come
When the iron tears the heart
And the trumpets will ring loudly
As the stars are painted with blood
A blazing fire under the moon
Burning taste of lead
We'll ride forever
'Cause the iron is stronger than death
A blazing fire under the moon
Burning taste of lead
We'll ride forever
'Cause the iron is stronger than death
A shadow is riding the horizon
An arcane man arrives to town
Remorseless and condemned
Tasted the snake's poison
Broken every bone
Twelve thousand gunshot wounds
But there's nothing that whiskey can't cure, oh
Ride through the crossfire
Ride through the flames
Like a predator in the night
The eagles fly into eternal sunset
The heroes die, dying for their pride
Awoken to heavy galloping
I heard the blasting whiplash
Beware, he's crying out your name
Now the time has come
When the iron tears the heart
And the trumpets will ring loudly
As the stars are painted with blood
A blazing fire under the moon
Burning taste of lead
We'll ride forever
'Cause the iron is stronger than death
A blazing fire under the moon
Burning taste of lead
We'll ride forever
'Cause the iron is stronger than death

The lyrics brought forth images like the last rays of the setting sun casting eagles flying into it and the dying of heroes because of their pride to express the concepts of iron's, death's and life's strength, determination and the unstoppable nature of iron. Iron lyrics basically revolve around the cycle of emotions such as anger, angst, despair, empowerment and adventure.
