In the Shadow of War Lyrics


Verse 1

Our twisted path has turned again, yet we’re still alive

Destroyed is the valley we called our home, now covered in blood, ash and bone

Find what’s left of your courage my men, a long ride awaits

Avenging one’s kind’s a task, no one wants

Pre-Chorus 1

But war, it tends to force the hand of fate

Terror, in the end we were too late

War, it tends to force the hand of fate

Terror, in the end we were too late

Verse 2

The night has always dimmed the light, the light of hope

In a weary man's heart and mind, there are dark clouds ahead

Now the moon is rising in the sky, coloring the shadows blue

The time has come for us to serve, you the justice of the gods

Pre-Chorus 2

But war, it tends to force the hand of fate

Terror, in the end we were too late

War, it tends to force the hand of fate

Terror, in the end we were too late

Chorus 1

With your backs turned we await our chance, to weed your kind

For thirteen days and nights we’ve quelled our rage

You’re as good as dead by nightfall, now the light is fading

Those thirteen days and nights will be remembered

Your gods look down upon you with great shame

And our people will rejoice

Chorus 2

With your backs turned we’ve caught up with you, we are still willful

For thirteen days and nights you’ve quelled your fear

You’re as good as dead by nightfall, now the dark is rising

Those thirteen days and nights have been your last

Your gods look down upon you with great shame

And our people will rejoice
