COVENANT LYRICS
"Promo 1995" (1995 Demo)
1. Dragonstorms
2. Night of the Blackwinds
3. Through the Eyes of the Raven
1. Dragonstorms
Through the dark I storm with hate, ablaze with gruesome might
Again destruction walks my path as I battle for the night
Blackwinds come and lift my dragonwings into the sky
Carry me across domains, towards the night I fly
I spread my wings across the fields, forever growing cold
Lightning fills my heart like myths had once foretold
I prowl the woods for living blood, the reaper of the light
Again destruction walks my path, I conquer for the night
The dragonstorms flew away with the starwinds...
Towards the realm of nights... into the dark where dragons ride...
Come forth thou glorious night, embrace me in your triumphant grasp
I crave for darkness... I crave for the dragonstorms to come again
My eyes they gleam with victory under the blackening sun
Through the clouds I storm with pride, the battle has been won
Cravens of the light they flee as dragons ride again
Evil dominates the world... as I am unchained
See the firedragons they ride as fogwinds of decay...
The forevernight is here at last... the sun now fades away
Embraced by triumph I take the throne and crown myself the king
Eternal darkness veils the sky... Hear the dragons sing
The dragonstorms flew away with the starwinds...
Towards the realm of nights... into the dark... into the dragon realms
2. Night of the Blackwinds
Where the wind blew my soul
Through dark and dim moonbeams
Through landscapes forged by time
And enormous gloomy forces
Where the wolves howl my sorrow
Through forests and forgotten valleys
Towards the darkest my journey rode
Towards the darkest... towards the great
This is the night of the blackwinds
Where many a frozen soul finds way
And the sky is dark as coal
In the endless bitter night
This is the night of the lonley winds
Here the light no longer guards
and dhe darkest one sits high on his throne
In the endless bitter night
3. Through the Eyes of the Raven
Through the gloomy marshes
Of norselands ancient soil
Below me withering blizzard
Has melted with the snow
"My tears no longer turned to frost
My eyes they gleam no more
Triumphant pride forever lost
King winter... Where is thy cold?"
"Many a winters night I have longed
In solitude with my own reflection
Silently I spill a tear into the sea
Am I doomed to haunt this landscape forever?"
A colourless cascade of withering grey
Midnight slumber hides my pain
"In the gloominess of autumn dusk
I sat mesmerized, staring at the sky
Will you come to take me away
In your everlasting grasp?"
I long for thee... king winter
Make me frozen, cold as ice
I give to thee my blinded eyes
Make me chilled, as white as snow
I give to thee my lonely soul
Hear my longing, hear my cry
I give to thee my empty mind
Cast your winds upon my wings
I give to thee my hollow heart
Come... cold winter, blow me so far away
Swept into the night, end my sorrow and pain
Come... cold winter, blow me so far away
Swept into the night, never to be seen again
