Midwinter's Cruelty
03:00
|

|
Beneath the frozen moon
The hoarfrost holds domain
Skeletal trees writhe in silence
From a windswept land
Here winter's cruelty reigns
A kingdom harsh and cold
Where withered thrones wilt
Becoming barren graves
Corpses litter the landscape
The snow a funeral shroud
Stormwinds sing a dirge of winter
Merciless and unforgiving
Beset by dark and ice
Midwinter's ravaging hunger
The eternal primordial wrath
In the essence of nature
Frost and death stalk the night
The weak shall not praise the returning sun

Sylvan Shadows

The timeless woods beckon
Untainted by modern man
Wolves prowl and ravens spy
Where the ancient spirit dwells
Howling trees and weeping stars
I wander through the mist
Following the eternal path
Of wisdom and desolation
Chanted runes resound
And echo through ash and oak
The landspirits call me home
Among the sylvan shadows

|
Night of winter darkness
On steeds of icewind they ride
Spectral hunters of bygone days
Led by Fury's Wielder
Cries of war and rage
Cloaked in the black fog's veil
Echoes of iron and wrath
Strike terror in Northern hearts
Fear and mystery surround
Reflections of the dead
Whispers of restless warriors
Wandering between shreds in time
Tread lightly, ye who forsake tradition
Cold and cruel is the steel of old
