When the raider came near
my mom told me to hide
It all was quite unclear
I ran over to the lakeside
From birth I was the wise
The one who shows the way
It's hard to verbalise
Even harder to unsay
As life exits my form
Eternal line I've crossed
The bad one now knows all
And the world we know is lost
Ref:
Raider asked a child
Who knows a bit too much
Where the last jotunn lies
And his words - how to touch
Bridge:
Slowly, gently, this is
how a life is taken

Just as snakes heading to dark
To safety of their burrows
Slithering under the stone arch
From seen to unseen terrors
Rain pierces his ears, his mind too
Thunder soothes his fear
He's trying to hide, but sense of doom
Always falls upon him
Cries of battle, smell of rage
Both reach his dull senses
Stone arch being as his cage
Dead bodies around - fences
Hair turns gray
All body shivers
His fear - such weight
Crushes the world, withers
The stone arch, ancient
Seems like it could fall
Wings of angel broken in hell
Weeping in raided hall
The cries grow much louder
The person dies of fear
His soul, now torn asunder
Forever by the frontier.

03. Berídan

There is a place, beneath those ancient stones
Where the ones with no goal are headed
Through dust, ghosts, skeletons and unknowns
For all we know, they should get shredded
Many fall in the face of time
Hidden man knows too well
He didn't intend any crime
Just hid himself and, then, fell.
The caves of berídan lie beneath
Raiders need those to cross the wasteland
With eyes wide, their weapons unsheathe
They advance, the one who knows now command
Ref:
I see the foolish mortal thugs
Walking in dungeon amongst the dead
Deep moaning all their senses floodes
Spirits try to charm them, the mislead
They see their goal, the beasts to find
Feared berídan - into wasteland ride.

04. Stormriders

However well you might lie down, the storm will be coming tonight
our horses will try to break out, free, to flee the invisible fright
However well you might build your walls, the storm will be coming tonight
to end our lives, to raid our halls, the stormriders - ready to fight
No stories remain of our petty fall, the raiders took all that was ours
all gold and all shine of the holy wall, the relics for them are just wars
No scrolls and no book will the scholars keep, for stromriders slew them all too
There's noone with time who might for us weep, the raiders could come for you soon

The ruins hide an artist
whose own crimson ink coats the stone,
boulders tarnished
as the head and body sink
Cold, inert wasteland
hides gruesome memories
buried deep below the sand
soldiers of wasted bravery
The rift open in world
here is stitched with will
only the wind has whirled
But stones, they won't stand still
The ghosts entrapped in dirt
may cry with silent voice
forever lost in desert
as if they had a choice.

06. Dreadwheels
06:42
|

A cloud of dust at the horizon
to cut down on a wasteland
the place to find their prize in
deep below the scorched sand
Ref:
Foreseeing the coming doom
Dreadwheels they have to race
The prize for lost - to get entombed
The winners knowledge embrace
Now embers shoot
into the sky
the darings' route
The earth's bone dry
We must ride fast
Or we will fall
into the past
once and for all
As we reach the summit
of another bone dry hill
Our head pulsate with drumming
The stone talks, yet is still.

One of the riders comes
To ask daring questions
The answer's only drums
Yet a full confession
The storm of beating
Now just makes sense
With names he's cheating
Gods' final defense
