The Long Night Lyrics


As I gazed into the starless night,

The scent of death foretold a fight.

deeper and deeper into darkness I crept,

among the fallen I stepped.

This winter looks endless, the night seems too long

I am searching for where I belong

Yet I'll keep going, My hopes kept high

Facing death eye to eye

The souls they are sleeping, but slowly awake.

I will not fail and let your heart break.

Sword in my hand and shield clutched tight,

As I'm swallowed away from the light.

I hear the wailing cries of pain,

Echoing from the abyss

I must go on, not to die in vain

My sword, it will not miss

This winter looks endless, the night seems too long

I am searching for where I belong

Yet I'll keep going, My hopes kept high

Facing death eye to eye

I will find a way

I will fight my way

To another day

And the sun will rise again

When will that be?

Fear and hope engulf my soul

As I enter the beast's domain

Will I stand or will I fall?

So much to lose, so much to gain

A light fills my heart as I descend

Shielding me from foul scent.

And as fate has carved in stone

I don't have to fight alone

The earth shudders, the sky's ablaze

The beast, it dares to show its face

My mind screams to run, but I must resist

Does the end await in the mist?

The battle goes endlessly on and on

As I am broken and tired

Though my will to stand and fight

Will be greeted by morning light

The winter looked endless, the night seemed too long

I was searching for where I belong

Yet I kept going, My hopes still high

And death I did defy
