1. IN FIELDS OF MORNING FROST

Revel in angst, Through grey, I've faced away
For all that I've fought
For all that I've Tried
But this darkness still stems inside, right behind my eyes

Shadows, the suns awoken
And the autumn moon, beckons me, no longer
There was flashes of blue light,
And the aura flows through these dead, autumn woods

There is a way, Away, from everything here
And all this is withered
Left, soon to be gone
But the memory of agony will surely carry on

Shadows, the suns awoken
And the autumn moon, beckons me, no longer
There was flashes of blue light,
And the aura flows through these dead, autumn woods

It brings a silence
To all that is within
And you see I remember
But the feeling is hallowed
Time has passed so slow
Now the seasons change
And you see I remember
At the end of October

This is to never be again
But the pain is never forgotten

And I wait inside of my mind
Looking for a way to escape

Where can I go now
After all is broken and gone
And I still remember
The manifesting damage That forced me to see
Something that I once denied
And I still remember
At the end of October

At the end of October in fields of morning frost
A shadow crept behind my eyes and a fire fueled my heart
A rapture ended as harmony began the sun
Rose higher and higher
The scenery faded, and turned to grey ending itself
Like a withering fire
To be one with the light of the sunrise
To be one with the oak and the earth
A wish, no it shouldn't come to this
But reality never changes its course
Some things never change, some things never change
Some things refuse to stay the same, stay the same
At the end of October I can only go so far
As to find myself in the same place with a shroud
Around my darkening heart
And I return from where
I came the scenery familiar though its not the same
This corrodes my hope of serenity
As the present and future stare into the past
I've lived in this whim of existence
And met eyes with autumnal twilight
And now that light is seen in the distance, even from here
I've walked threw a ethereal forest
It struck deep within my heart and soul
Some things never change,
Some things refuse to stay the same

Stay the same, Stay the same
This is to never be again
But the pain is never forgotten
Stay the same, Stay the same, stay the same
And I wait inside of my mind
Looking for a way to escape…. To escape….


2. WHERE THE OAK AND SKYLINE MEET

Incantations
Under the hollowed sky
With the light of harvest moon

In the depths, the aura of eternal light
Is Like a funeral pyre
Blazing of red, the cold of death that slowly comes
In the dead of Fall
Covered by dusk, swept into a silent night
With seas roaring
One last sigh, a placid look among the skies
Coming to an end

The path that bends, the path only thickens and ends
In a autumn cataract
Finding itself, lost and bewildered by fate
In the eastward winds
A rhapsody, bestowed under the northern stars
Drowning in the sea
Without a glance, forward and beyond the oaks
Guided by the moonlight

Beckoning the haunted to follow
Amongst the grieving, dying trees
Where the oak and skyline meet
Waves crash through existence
Tranquil to pass but never again
The moon folds over
To bring about another day

Flashes of white light
Falling of the moon
A prophecy
Known by none
To be revealed
One by one
incantations
Under the hollowed sky
With the light, of harvest moon
The incandescent rays of life
Set just as the sun
The autumn moon reveals itself
As the day is done
Sorrow be thy bane
As fog to rain
What is now known
Known to be true

Beckoning the haunted to follow
Amongst the grieving, dying trees
Where the oak and skyline meet
The waves crash through existence
Tranquil to pass but never again
The moon folds over
To bring about another day


3. SOARING THROUGH WAYWARD WINDS

(Instrumental)


4. THEY CAME WITH THE FOG

The sun slowly covers as it creeps within the distance
And breaks through the frozen night (night)
Dusk soon releases its grasp of the woods
And gives way to the morning light (light)

Like once before I return from the hunt
Through woodland paths and valleys
All that I know And what I feel inside
Is within these ancient mountains

The shadow surrounds
Cast from the withering mist to the ground
And under its haze
Blood soaks the earth leading onwards through deeper woods
Disdained by the sounds
Chaos has swarmed now war born I am bound

Am I bound to this fate Will it be my time
To rise and give fight
Out of the woods, and quickly through the fields
Where the flames scorch the earth to my home (home)
Bodies lay twisted in terror and death
And me knees soon give way to the woe(that cuts to the soul)

Now nothing left
Nothing left from before
Only this vile hatred
For your kind With your malice and fire

The shadow surrounds
Cast from the withering mist to the ground
And under its haze
Blood soaks the earth leading onwards through deeper woods
Disdained by the sounds
Chaos has swarmed now war born I am bound

They came with the fog

With an axe
With a bow once used for the hunt,
I’m against you
Ohh,
My mind wont give way to the pain,
I’ll go through you!

Never oppressed
Never have bowed
Never will serve a man with a crown
Within these forests faint echoes of war
Strike within silence and leave with the dawn

The shadow surrounds
Cast from the withering mist to the ground
And under its haze
Blood soaks the earth leading onwards through deeper woods
Disdained by the sounds
Chaos has swarmed now war born I am bound
Never oppressed
Never have bowed
Never will serve a man with a crown
Within these forests faint echoes of war
Strike within silence and leave with the dawn


5. FORESIGHT OF A WANDERER

Hours have passed within silence
The howl of wind has taken the night
In a ravenous wilderness on these peaks
From the west the sky’s cast a shadow
As the tides bellow in from the east
The scenery beneath me turns to black

I have felt this in the air
As it tonight
Through these times of woe
Yet winds beckon tidings of fortune
with the will of the gods

Gaze into the burning horizon
Dimly lit in the distance beneath
Through barren wastelands, is their keep
Faint voices whisper me closer
So close to their kingdom and sea
Within these walls we will siege

Grieving, there is no time
Only today
And our fate is stone
To be amongst hatred and bloodshed
With the will of the gods

And within these woods
We will last another day
The grey wolf watches all
And will lead through these frays
And within these woods Reckoning will begin
Their malevolent grasp Has grown to weak and thin

Now the wanderer’s biddings erupt in my eyes
Within a haunting vision, he reveals his foresight
In a shrouded haze of grief and blinding suffering
Soon all his wrath will be handed down upon them
“Enemies of honor thou are despised by Odhinn
For he will cast his hand down upon thee
A tyrant’s malevolence has no cover or shield
From the eye, and the disdain of the one”

Oh, the night
Sweeps then cloaks
The throe’s of these times
I cannot control your kind
I cannot control this pain
But my will soon, finds another way
I’ll fight another day again

I have felt this in the air
As it tonight
Through these times of woe
Yet winds beckon tidings of fortune
with the will of the gods
Grieving,there is no time
Only today
And our fate is stone
To be amongst hatred and bloodshed
With the will of the gods

And within these woods
We will last another day
The grey wolf watches all
And will lead through these frays
And within these woods
Reckoning will begin
Their malevolent grasp Has grown to weak and thin

And within his foresight I see my fate
In the end I become one with the sky
I see my fate In the end
I become one with the sky


6. CARVED INTO PALE TWILIGHT

Carved into pale twilight
This is the night
Where the skyline fell
Beyond
These fields of gray

This is the night
Where the fallen wait
Beyond These fields of gray

Where the skyline fell
Beyond
These fields of gray

Never have been here before
At mortalities bitter end
The frost line creeps closer to my ashen hands
I fear it’s the end, is this really the end?

Never have been here before
At mortalities bitter end

Triumph so far from my eyes and my heart
As I feel myself higher
May I never know, what becomes of my land and home
Will I be there as the battle slows

“So deep within, without fear, or pain
My eyes close beneath the weight of life
Through the horizon I leave this behind“
Carved into pale twilight

The frost line creeps closer to my ashen hands
I fear it’s the end, is this really the end?


7. THE SEIDKONA ORACLE


Pre Verse“One has died here before
His saga now lies within ages of frost”

The ground quakes beneath the battlefield
Our warrior king has fallen As was prophesized
A blade has sent him down to the raging earth
A death toll high, without victory
We now follow the grim of insanity
“Lets carve them out”“And leave an offering for the gods!”

“And leave an offering for the gods!”

The night flows above the scenery
Our leader, the wounded and fallen
As we set a fire
Forlorn, We send them on to the other-world
With the weight of many men lost
Only a will of revenge to carry on
“Lets carve them out”
“And leave an offering for the gods!”

“And leave an offering for the gods!”

Forward, avenge all this death and this loss
We must now go towards The crimson darkening horizon
And seek the one who speaks to the gods
And bring us back the fate of her prophetic vision

She speaks, with a hand across the earth
With a gaze of black and disdain A blank stare to the sky
She whispers of a battle that will soon unfurl
Convulsing near the frozen hörgr
Her voice starts with an incantation
“They’ll hunt you down!!”
“And wash their unclean hands of your blood!”

Well if their hands must be washed of blood
Let them hear my war-cry (Scream)
Upon this dismal vision

Possessed yet entranced by unknown powers
Her eyes glare towards the horizon
With her words of death
She whispers the fate foretold by the one
Carving patterns upon the ground
Her hand points towards the distance
“They’ll hunt you down!!”
“And wash their unclean hands of your blood!”

Well if their hands must be washed of blood
Let them hear my war-cry(Scream)
Upon this dismal vision

Forward,
Avenge all this death and this loss
We must now go towards The crimson darkening horizon
And seek the one who speaks to the gods
And bring us back the fate of her prophetic vision

Towards the frost
Towards the ice
Into the old forest path
Where much is dark and vastly unknown
Towards the frost
Towards the ice
Into the old forest path
Within the night with the last of our hoard

“The ground quakes beneath the battlefield
Our warrior king
Has fallen”
Fallen
Our warrior king has fallen”

Towards the frost
Towards the ice
Into the old forest path
Where much is dark and vastly unknown
Towards the frost
Towards the ice
Into the old forest path
Within the night with the last of our hoard

Pre Chorus Fade Out
“One has died here before
His saga now lies within ages of frost
now you must go to the woodlands
and seek out the wild that put fear into thought
This may in turn put fate in your hands
But if not for your skill and shield you will die
For although some receive times of favor from the gods
You must still watch the intentions within your enemies
Eye!


8. INTO THE BERSEKER FREY

Errrrrrrrrr Go!!!

The foreshadow of the end
Is a vibrant crimson sunset
There will be no one left
As we ride towards the slaughter

Raging,
With teeth to our shields
Through fields of ash and blood
We kill all who have come to oppress
This old foreboding land
Panic comes not with the sword
Fear of death comes from within
There’s no hope for the weak at heart
There's only hope for the the strong at hand
Many have not been here before
To the beginning of the end
With many clans held unified
With many warriors to send
The enemy seeks to convert our belief
Most of them will meet their bitter end
The hand of Odin is now upon them
The strength of our kind will never bend

The strength of our kind will never bend

Many have not been here before
To the beginning of the end
With many clans held unified
With many warriors to send
The enemy seeks to convert our belief
Most of them will meet their bitter end
The hand of Odin is now upon them
The strength of our kind will never bend

Of Suffering.
Yet,
if not for the scorn
If not for the pain
If not for the endless nights battling
This haze would cease within my mind

Raging, with teeth to our shields
Through woods of yew and oak
With many that have come to resist
The conquest of our lands
Hatred comes not with the sword
It dwells like a fire within
There’s no hope for the weak at heart
There’s only hope for the strong at hand

There’s only hope for the strong at hand

Now reinforced with maddened warriors
Come from the outskirts, are our kin
We begin to hack through our enemies
Their numbers become extremely thin
The blight of conversion is upon us
The blood of them is on our hands
The hand of Odin is now upon them
The strength of our kind will never
Bend
If not for the pain
If not for the scorn
If not for the endless nights battling
There would be no loss of suffering
Yet, if not for the scorn
If not for the pain
If not for the endless nights battling
This haze would cease within my mind

Into the fray

As the sound of men becomes a thunder
And the ground below us darkens red
A sight of death and such agony
Some fear that we have been mislead
As the sun slowly rises within the distance
The weight of the battle begins to change
Throughout an atrocious amount of loss
I hear the war cries of many men

Odin let our strength be silent
Let our spears reign from the sky
Brace us from this bitter onslaught
From those who wish your legend die
Throughout this vast and darkened forest
There come a foreign enemy
Who wishes to crush the ways of us
So never again may we be free

So never again may we be free

Odin let our strength be silent
Let our spears reign from the sky
Brace us from this bitter onslaught
From those who wish your legend die
Throughout this vast and darkened forest
There come a foreign enemy
Who wishes to crush the ways of us
So never again may we be

Free,
of suffering
Yet, if not for the scorn
If not for the pain
If not for the endless nights battling
This haze would cease within my mind


9. LUCID VISIONS OF FOLKVANGR

Suspended, flowing, aimlessly with the cold
A Gleaming sunset falls from the horizon
The sound of winds flowing away with the trees
My eyes slowly close as all around me fades

There is nothing left but a thought
And an undying thirst to be free
I feel my vision grow darker
As the sun slowly sets for the last time
As the sun slowly sets for the last time
For the last time
For the last time
