Lyrics


1. 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


2. FORESIGHT OF THE 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


3. 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?
