BATTLORN LYRICS
"Long Way From The Dark" (2001 Demo)
1. Minotaur
2. Harper's Song
3. Deepest Cut
4. One Ring
1. Minotaur
The little freak opens his eyes to the world
In a dark corner of the maze
All alone since the day he was born
His breathless mother can never love
He could never understand the hate
And the blaze of anger within his heart
Breathing was the pain killing his mind
Tears in his veins instead of blood
Day after day another falling dream
Broken hopes and forgotten feelings
He must survive in this poor life
Life was a game – End of this game
Meaningless reasons – Unclear visions
Paradoxes in his mind
Maybe this are the reasons of his life
He’ll be rising through the shadows
Enemies hidden in the shadows
Endless hatred in their eyes
Just he wants a piece of freedom
And so he marches toward sunrise
With the hunchback of the past
Once he set off – No turning back
Long way to light – Long way from the dark
No place to hide – He must fight
Meaningless reasons – Unclear visions
Paradoxes in his mind
Maybe this are the reasons of his life
He’ll be rising through the shadows
Meaningless reasons – Unclear visions
Paradoxes in his mind
Maybe this are the reasons of his life
He’ll be rising through the shadows
2. Harper's Song
Heed the words of this one
Who sings wisdom of ancients
See Red Star's gleaming sign
Feel the omens in your veins
Bow to Pern's Dragonriders
Lords of forgotten past
Hold's ignorant foolish sons
Shall pay lifes for disrespect
Believe in our songs, sons of Pern
We are the keepers of lore
Hide under shadow of dragonfire
We watch you, our hearts sore
Brothers since the Impression
Rise from the weyr, Dragonriders
Fly through threads raining down
Burn Red Star's evil seeds
Listen to the Harpers, careless ones
The legendary Pass is real
Threadfall will eat your souls
See your fate and its seal
A trail of flame on the grass
See them race through the smoke
Tear the air, o mighty Dragonriders
You are our only hope
Rise
Clouds your home, mighty ones
Cross the skies
Burn the grass where evil lies
Wind of the wing on your face
Glorious fleet swims in the sky
Salute them! Pern's proud sons
With a battle-cry
Believed in our songs, sons of Pern
We are the keepers of lore
Hide under shadow of dragonfire
We watch! Your hearts fill with joy
3. Deepest Cut
Once I was a vine
Withering without a sun
Lifeless were the leafs of mine
But then blessed me your shine
You were my sun, you were my light
You gave the might I needed to fight
You were my life, you were my blood
Now you’re my wound, my deepest cut
Still sounding in my ears
Is your laughter noone hears
These hands wiped your streaming tears
As you cried out all your fears
You were my day, you were my night
You were the highest constellation so bright
You were my love, now you’re my blight
An accursed blade inflicting deepest cut
Hollow are all your words
From your tongue, poison drips
Truth shall make me free as
The ferryman of Styx on open seas
The oracle said with grin of a fey
(What) they don’t understand, fear do they
What they fear, hate do they
What they hate, destroy do they
Thus you destroyed me
Without a sign of pity
Ruins remain for travelers to see
A well of misery
Once queen of hearts I loved
And out of joy I cried
But now that's my lament
I mourn because my queen is dead
You were my day, you were my night
You were the highest constellation so bright
You were my love, now you’re my blight
An accursed blade inflicting deepest cut
You were my day, you were my night
You were the highest constellation so bright
You were my love, now you’re my blight
An accursed blade inflicting deepest cut
You were my deepest cut
You were mine
4. One Ring
“Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.”
The tale begins on Bilbo’s birthday
Spring is the Season year three thousand and one
In the end of the birthday he disappears from the Shire
Leaving his Magic Ring to young Frodo
Seventeen years later Gandalf tells the story
Of the One Ruling Ring
Lord of the Rings
Creator of Ring
He wants his One Ring
Lord of the Rings
The Black Riders look for the Ring
They come up to the Shire, Hobbits leave their home
In the town of Bree they meet the Strider
And they find the way to the House of Elrond
And there gathers the Fellowship of the Ring
To destroy one Ring
Lord of the Rings
Fellowship of Ring
They fight for they realms
Lord of the Rings
Fellowship scatters
Frodo and Sam flee
Orcs attack the others
Slay Boromir and capture Hobbits
Orcs are killed by Rohirrim
Hobbits escape and meet the Ents
Ents gather for the battle
And march on Isengard
Remainders of Fellowship
Come to Rohan and heal the King
Ents scatter Saruman’s army
And old friends meet in Isengard
Meanwhile Sam and Frodo
Go on their fateful quest
Encounter the Gollum
And follow him to a deadly trap
When Frodo falls
Sam cries and takes One Ring
Goes on then realizes
He’s alive but in trouble
Dark clouds come from Mordor-Slowly fill the sky
Aragorn has great power-It’s called Army of Dead
Theoden sets off to Gondor-Before it’s too late
Dead heads rain in Gondor-After the Minas Trith’s fall
Riders reach at last moment
Brave rider king King fights and falls
Army of dead scatters the enemy
And victorious armies march on Black Gate
Sam Rescues his master and Escapes (from) Cirith-Ungol
Last part of (their) fateful quest they meet Gollum again
On the ledge of Crack of Doom he attacks Ringbearer
He falls with (one) ruling ring perishes (in) enchanted fire
Lord of the Rings
Lord of the Rings
Lord of the Rings
Lord of the Rings
