Iron Warriors | Warhammer 40K

Blueprint scars etched in a cortex of steel
Every wall a cadaver, every bastion a tomb
We don’t storm fortresses we teach them to kneel
Equations of ruin, artillery’s gloom
“IRON WITHIN… IRON WITHOUT…”
Forged for wars no soul would claim
Disposable engines in flesh’s disguise
While zealots basked in the Emperor’s flame
We drowned in trenches, smothered by lies
“NO HOPE. NO MERCY.”
Bitterness welded, marrow to bone
A siege engine doesn’t weep
it moans.

Iron within… iron without…
Reduce the world to fractured stone
Iron within… iron without…
War is the only truth we’ve ever known
Iron within… iron without…
No hope. No mercy. No atonement shown
“IRON WITHIN… IRON WITHOUT… IRON WITHIN… IRON WITHOUT…”

We dissect the battlefield, surgeons of decay
Stress lines, fault seams, fractures of fate
We calculate the hour a city will obey
Dragged into the dirt by a thousand tons of hate

“ATTRITION IS SCRIPTURE.”
Trenches gape like wounds in the crust
Minefields throb with a heartbeat of doom
Mortars chant in a dialect of dust
Our barrage turns daylight into funeral gloom
“IRON WITHIN… IRON WITHOUT…”
We were the Emperor’s discarded fists—
the silence beneath His perfect war.
Now we return that silence
in fire.

Iron within… iron without…
Fortifications buckle under the storm
Iron within… iron without…
Attrition is scripture, cold and worn
Iron within… iron without…
In siege and sorrow, we are reborn
“NO HEROES. NO SALVATION.”

Medrengard dreams in iron nightmares
Citadels rise like condemned giants
Daemon-forges shriek forgotten prayers
To a primarch hollowed by defiance
“IRON WITHIN… IRON WITHOUT…”
We are chained to the wars we perfected
Forever besieging, forever besieged
The cycle of hate once rejected
Is now the creed we preach
“WE BREAK EVERYTHING BECAUSE EVERYTHING BROKE US FIRST.”

IRON WITHIN… IRON WITHOUT…
Let artillery judge the living and the dead
IRON WITHIN… IRON WITHOUT…
Leave cities screaming in rivers of red
IRON WITHIN… IRON WITHOUT…
We are the siege that never ends
IRON WITHOUT.
