In a dim lit chamber in the iron tower

Crouched on an alter of stone

In a whorl of darkness like a living flame

Finding the heart of the throne

Burned houses jutting against the sky

Blood glistened out in the snow

Coals of blue fire

A gathering fear

From friend as well as from foe

We wear the hides of wolves

Race the steed of saxon knight

As they breed a race of kings

Drag the riders down to fight

A heart of thunder

A time of dread

I warn you now, you're

As good as dead

A heart of thunder

A time of dread

I warn you now, you're

As good as dead

I wish you good fortune in the war to come

The man strums his lyre and sings

He ground on his teeth like a dog gnaws a bone

Controlled by invisible strings

Lights blazed high from the keepers crypt

The walls made to keep people out

He rose and fled

Hurled his things in the sea

Jumped when he heard the guard shout

We wear the hides of wolves

Race the steed of saxon knight

As they breed a race of kings

Drag the riders down to fight

A heart of thunder

A time of dread

I warn you now, you're

As good as dead

A heart of thunder

A time of dread

I warn you now, you're

As good as dead

A heart of thunder

A time of dread

I warn you now, you're

As good as dead

A heart of thunder

A time of dread

I warn you now, you're

As good as dead

As good as dead

As good as dead

As good as dead

As good as dead
