ELVENPATH LYRICS
"Spyrol" (2007 Demo)
1. Burning Skies
2. Priests Of War
3. Northern Son
1. Burning Skies
In the dead of the night the sirens they cried
Waking up the world for the deadly sight
What happened in the darkness calm
They said that the air had turned to death’s lair
Two giant eagles without a care
Now watch out for the oncoming storm
The seven plagues came raining down, there was no place to flee
In darkest pain I watched my brother die
My family lay in their blood, pure horror I did see
The terror that came out of the sky
Beneath burning skies we’re running for our lives
Never will our days be the same
When flashes light the sky man and child will die
Watch out – the skies are aflame
What happened there high up in the air
No one could tell in their voice of despair
When the eagles had met in the night
Death to our world, they brought pain and hurt
Masters of evil by hellish winds stirred
What an unbearable sight
When the darkness of the night burned bright as the sun
Mercilessly death knocked on our door
Among the ruins I now stand, the last remaining one
The wound will pierce my heart forevermore
Music & Lyrics: Till Oberboßel
2. Priests Of War
A holy war is what you’d fight, you’d be the chosen one
Bringing peace to all the lands, but all I see is misery now
Who do you think that you are, a man or man made god
Deaf to all the words of warning, treachery works always somehow
Down glory road you rode in triumph in the name of liberty
You came to bring them peace and life and free these lands from all their sorrow
Fires burning to the sky, the monuments you gave the land
And if its children die today their fathers will love you tomorrow
And you can never feel a thing so far away
And you will never see until your dying day
Priests of war – tell me what is it for
For peace we yearned, you never learned
And now the fires of hate grow evermore
Priests of war – the black oath has been sworn
And in the darkest clouds of night
I see your death be born
How do you now sleep these days, how do you dream at night
Do you ever feel remorse for all the lies that you were telling
Not too long we will be waiting, not too long your reign will last
One of these days you’ll be pleased to meet the Coalition of the Killing
Don’t you know things in life ain’t always what they seem
Your victims’ funeral march shall be your dying scream
It matters not where you’ll be hiding
It matters not how long we’ll search
The price will be paid
You’ll pay with your hollow soul
Music & Lyrics: Till Oberboßel
3. Northern Son
The saddest day for all the world came in the Moon of Mead
When the heart of Nordland’s ever greatest son did cease to beat
The hordes gathered throughout the lands, fell to their knees in grief
And cried a thousand tears in agony and disbelief
Oh bitter came the mourning times, the sun gives no more light
For one who meant the world to me has passed into the night
So hordes of warriors in the world, this requiem be sung
For Nordland’s greatest warrior that died so very young
Forever be thy name remembered far and wide
The thirteen candles burn for you like for all those who died
The hall up high may welcome you, through blood by thunder ride
And on your quest for timeless life Valkyries be your guide
A burning ship of lifeless glory, to nowhere it must sail
I raise the horn and drink to thee, loud be called out thy hail
And though we know that life can’t last, all men must die the same
I know one thing which never dies, the honour of thy name
Valhalla’s gates now open wide for northern son
Now sits by the side of fathers long time gone
Called way up high by gods of thunder, wind and rain
You are in our hearts and ever will remain
The blood on ice is frozen in the home of those once brave
Under the runes the wheel of sun, a call from out (of) the grave
The wind of mayhem brings on day of wrath the dragon’s breath
The reaper sings an ode of war and blood and fire and death
When blood and soul on Vinland’s blooded shore have turned to grey
By the lake of fire the mourner’s clad in black in Asa Bay
And bearers of a hammerheart know when this world is gone
After his death they’ll see the resurrection of the northern son
And wherever I may ride I know you’re always there
And in the thick of fray and fight I know you’re always there
Into the dark the hammerheart shall send a shining light
So let this song of hail to you ring loud into the night
Valhalla’s gates now open wide for northern son
Now sits by the side of fathers long time gone
Forever in my heart your spirit will remain
And in the hall of fallen ones we’ll meet again
Music & Lyrics: Till Oberboßel
