Once given oaths to break in vain,
we were made to own
all the torments we create
These are the hills,
cold lie the bones
we were charged to keep as whole
So thoughtless we are,
their memories harrowed
Auras spiral out to pull us in,
fraying our eternal bond
Clouded vision in oblivion:
craving existence beyond
Open your eyes…
Look to the east where broke the day
‘Neath the shadow cast,
withered souls to turn away
Once noble hopes,
champions scorned
drawn and quartered by the dawn
Breathless we watched
hate consuming
Auras spiral out to pull us in,
fraying our eternal bond
Clouded vision in oblivion,
craving existence beyond
Open your eyes,
though the winds sting
and snow doth blind
Light of the north,
guide us forward:
we are your chosen
Spirit away
to the sun
on a verdant plain,
and underneath,
the fertile seeds
alive and growing
Damn the hours at dusk
In the eventide our grief is thus
Hanging heads,
stains from fallen tears
Sorrow all that we can bear
Look ahead,
wandering pioneers,
shed the burden from your backs for it is time:
take back your lives
Open your eyes,
though the winds sting
and snow doth blind
Light of the north,
guide us forward:
we are your chosen
Spirit away
to the sun
on a verdant plain,
and underneath,
the fertile seeds
alive and growing
