An original song created by EJ Moir and inspired by 'The Last Hours' series by Cassandra Clare.
So...
WHO'S READY FOR CHAIN OF THORNSSSSS
I wrote this on a whim and I'm not totally happy with how it turned out but meh I'm no pro. I based the lyrics around James and Cordelia's relationship in Chain of Iron, but I'm sure they're dynamic will have changed by the end of CoT. Still, once I got this melody into my head I just HAD to give them a song 😭 Should I do more Shadowhunter themes?
Also, for those who don't know, I'm part of the Bookish Songs Collective! We're a group of bookish songwriters currently working on a Folk of the Air inspired album, and have recently released two Throne of Glass inspired songs. If you'd like to hear more, check us out on our socials: [ Ссылка ]

Lyrics:
V1 (Cordelia):
Sometimes
I think your smiles are real
That you feel what I feel
Sometimes
You act as if you know
That my heart is yours to own
Chorus:
I’m by your side
But you’re forever blind
Can’t you see
What we could be
Why are we pretending?
V2 (James):
Sometimes
That mask fades away
And a fire burns inside
For a moment
We fall into a dream
And I never want to wake without you
Chorus:
I wish I could open my eyes
Why am I forever blind?
It’s real to me
So painfully
Why are we pretending?
You’re on my mind / You are my light
You are my constant star / We’re written in the stars
When I hold you / when you hold me
Suddenly, you are my world / Everything’s right in the world
Bridge:
There’s so much you need to know
I’d give you everything
If only
If only
Final Chorus:
I could open my eyes / I could open your eyes
Why am I forever blind? / But you’re forever blind
It’s real to me / Why can’t you see
So painfully / What we could be
Why are we pretending? / Why are we pretending?
I wish I could open my eyes /There’s so much I have to say
Why am I forever blind? /You’re with me but you're worlds away
Where you are
Is where I’ll stay
Why are we pretending?
Outro:
There’s so much you’ll never say
So I’m leaving
It’s the only way
