Thirty Heartbeats to Dawn | Steampunk Folk-Metal & D&D Artificer Song (Lyrics Video)

#FolkMetal #SteampunkMusic #DnDMusic "Thirty Heartbeats to Dawn" is an upbeat steampunk folk-metal song about a poisoned artificer counting down the Morrowvein's final thirty heartbeats. The machine once strained the corruption from her blood, but as its copper shell fails, she grieves the inventions she will never finish and entrusts her blueprints to younger makers who may build the healthier world she cannot live to see. ⚙️ Made for Dungeons & Dragons artificers, visionary inventors, and heroes whose greatest creation is a future they will never live to see. Welcome to Lyra Vesperi, where progress can outlive the heart that first set it in motion. 🎵 Lyrics: The silver valve begins its final chime (Thirty) I built the "Morrowvein" to purchase time (Twenty-nine) It strained the creeping shadow from my blood (Twenty-eight) And built a copper dam against the flood (Twenty-seven) But every turning wheel must find an end (Twenty-six) I feel the heavy metal start to bend (Twenty-five) I drafted every blueprint in the dark (Twenty-four) To give a broken world a brighter spark (Twenty-three) I smile and build through agony and flame (Twenty-two) So other hands can build upon my name (Twenty-one) Click by click, keep time, keep time Spark by spark, the gears align No loose gear, no wasted flame Every tool must earn its name I take my fee, new roads serve humankind Thirty heartbeats buy the dawn by design! Young makers soon will outrun what I know (Twenty) Their finer gears will make the cities glow (Nineteen) They'll build the silver lungs I drew in pain (Eighteen) And laugh in healthy bodies free of stain (Seventeen) I'll miss the copper marvels still untold (Sixteen) Yet smile to know new minds are growing bold (Fifteen) The poison pushes past the failing seal (Fourteen) I smile and trade my future for the steel (Thirteen) New architects will finish what I drew (Twelve) And build a shining world I never knew (Eleven) Click by click, keep time, keep time Spark by spark, the gears align No loose gear, no wasted flame Every tool must earn its name I take my fee, new roads serve humankind Thirty heartbeats buy the dawn by design! The "Morrowvein" is cracking at the seam (Ten) I gave my only life to feed the dream (Nine) The tainted blood is boiling in my chest (Eight) I lay my heavy alchemy to rest (Seven) The pressure fails, the copper shell gives way (Six) I knew I would not live to see the day (Five) I weep for all the things I'll never be (Four) I smile for all the progress born from me (Three) The ticking stops, the metal tears apart (Two) Why couldn't all my genius save my heart? (One) Click by click, keep time, keep time Spark by spark, the gears align No loose gear, no wasted flame Every tool must earn its name I take my fee, new roads serve humankind Thirty heartbeats buy the dawn by design! --- 🎚️ Audio Mix: BandLab 🎨 Visuals: Vizzy + Image 2.0 🎶 Music: Suno AI 📜 Concept & Lyrics: Lyra Vesperi --- 🛡️ Continue the Adventure: ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfrZ6tmrmxqQB40yNdvItaaCSvJjxJXor ➡️ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfrZ6tmrmxqRk44eRYqC1izOLOchs63Z2 🎶 Stream the music everywhere: https://map.lyravesperi.com 💎 Join the Guild for exclusive perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyKMXQn_Wd43N8mU9Nb7-5w/join
