The Fall of the Elven Lord Lyrics


Gather around, a story I will tell:

Of how the elven lord fell

In the battle of sudden flame

When he chose death rather than shame

The elves came from over the sea

The dark lord was their enemy

They laid siege to his dark realm

The world from his evil to defend

Mountains shatter spewing forth smoke and lava red

The Dark Lord has risen his power all now must dread

Fire breathing dragons charged from the black gate

Demons wielding whips and swords are here to seal your fate

Creatures that once were elves that were twisted by dark spells

In plate armour charge from the gates of the dark realms

Against elves and men they fight to conquer Middle Earth

To enslave or kill they seek, turn cities into dirt

The elven host fell one by one

All around dead, all hope was gone

The elven lord then stepped forth

Slaying the demons he challenged their lord

I fear not death, I fear not pain

I will avenge all who were slain

I will not yield as long as I stand

Never your foot will stand on this land

In black armour the dark lord stepped forth

Through the black gate out from the north

The two lords charged: the dark and the light

To death the final fight

I fear not death: if that is the price

I’ll gladly pay Dark Lord of lies

If by my death, defeat you I can

Gladly I’ll fall to save elf and man

The dark lord brought down his hammer black

Broke the elf’s armour: blocked his attack

Crushed the elf struck a desperate stroke

And with his last breath spoke

Can you not see: of this world Dark Lord:

You can not win: always a sword

Will rise to challenge your evil might

Always a hero will rise you to fight

I die in peace; I’ve done my part

Forever you’ll hide, fear rules your dark heart!

So bring your blades: elves and men

Prepare our homes to defend

We have been called to fill the breach

So that our homes darkness won’t reach

And so he died: the elven lord

The warrior brave that all adored

Crushed under the dark lords heel

Wounding the dark lord with his steel

Never retreat; never give inn:

We’ll die as one to save our kin

Into the battle charge with drawn sword

We shall defeat the Dark Lord
