Lyrics

  • Song of the Aged Man


  • Song of the Black Guardian

Under the city, deep in the caves

He awaits for us, the Black Guardian

No one whoe ever caught sight of him

Lived to tell about it


If the holy Verses are spoken

And you giggle and caper around

You'll soon wipe the smile right off your face

'Cause he ambushes you when you least expect


[Chorus]

Down in the deep, down in the dark

He awaits for us, the Black Guardian

If we stray from our Path, if we lose our way

He drags us down to the endless void below


If you search in ruins and tombs

For pathless writings and treasures

The earth opens up under your feet

And you find no gold but eternal grief


[Chorus]


If you are three sheets to the wind

And you stagger through the alleys of Ark

A manhole cover will open up

One more step and your life will be done


[Chorus]


Late in the night, when the pale moon shines

Over the roofs of Ark

You'll hear a screaming from deep below

A terrible spine-chilling cry


[Chorus]


  • Song of the Crimson Star


  • Song of the Last Sunset


  • Song of the Lost Ones


  • Song of the Vatyrs


  • Song of the Wayward Wanderer

Our ancient world seemed newborn in his eyes

No place could keep him, he yearned for the skies

He abandoned the way that Malphas foresaw

He followed a path of his own


And he strayed in the void as a wayward wanderer

Despising the path that was meant just for him

Yet the dreams that he sought in the deep red afterglow

Were as distant as ever before


He did find a home in the city below

Where a life neither purpose nor honor can hold

The woman who loved him held out her heart

And her suffering tore it apart


Cause he strayed in the void as a wayward wanderer

Despising the path that was meant just for him

Yet the dreams that he sought in the deep red afterglow

Were as distant as ever before


Our ancient world seemed as old as his eyes

He had lived his whole life under empty skies

When a little boy asked him for the guiding path

He said, do not risk Malphas' wrath


'Cause you'll stray in the void as a wayward wanderer

Despising the path that is meant just for you

Yet the dreams that you seek in the deep red afterglow

Are as distant as they'll ever be


  • Song of the Whisperwood


  • Song of the Wild Mages


  • Song of the Winter Sky

Hundred men they were

As they set out to fight

For their country's banner in distant, foreign lands


He bid her farewell

A love still young and green

She thought she'd soon be in his arms again


He told her:"Await my safe return.

Trust in this last promise and stand firm

Once moonlight shines red onto the seas

We shall return in victory."


They marched off, blue banners in the sky

And teardrops were running from her eyes

Yet she thought: "If only I believe,

Time will bring him safely back to me."


[Chorus]

When the red moon casts its light

His ghost travels through the night

Through the forests on wind's wings

Until he reaches the old hill

There she kneels before his grave

Where their love had once been born

And he caresses her face

Yet she feels not his embrace

Dark and red glows the winter sky

Two souls divided by the threads of time


Days turned into weeks

Moon for moon passed by

Yet no word from the battlefields arrived


Months turned into years

Peace now ruled the lands

Empty graves were dug under the sky


But never did she doubt his last oath

Each night she stepped out into the cold

She walked through the forest, climbed the hill

Where she had once sworn her love for him


And always, when summer bid goodbye

And moonlight blood-red fell from the sky

His ghost raised from dust-forgotten bones

Searching for what he had lost too soon


[Chorus]


[Voice Bridge]


Decades had gone by; her hair ashen and thin

Realms had fallen, war and dead forgotten

When she walked the streets, they said that she was damned

A victim to a past long gone and rotten


Yet still she did not care for their words

When night came she prayed for his return

Each fall, when cold winds haunted the lands

she hoped to once again hold his hand


And as her last sunset drew close by

She lingered forgotten in the night

The moon's light shines bright upon her face

She's waiting as her life fades away


When the red moon casts its light

His ghost travels through the night

Through the forests on wind's wings

Until he reaches the old hill

There she kneels before his grave

Where their love had once been born

And as she closes her eyes

A ray of light breaks through the sky

And her skin turns into dust

As her soul breaks from its shell

And she joins him in the sky:

Two shapes now freed from grief and time

Then the winds take them away

Through the woods, it's trees asway

And she takes him by his hand

At last, in peace they find their end

Dark and red glows the winter sky

Two souls divided by the threads of time


Dark and red glowed the winter sky

Two souls united by the threads of time
