The Nocturnal Winter Lyrics

Album: Unsunned

Manes of the wolves was gleaming like silver

The snow they tread sparkled in the frost

The meadows bathed in a haze of moonlight

It's beams caressed the mountains

An eerie wind swept through the frozen sky

Which the moon adorned with a calling blaze

A presence of evil froze the mortals blood

As Winter crept the realms

A whirling snowstorm was raging in the air

Like minds of fury it lacerated the earth

Against this cold spell no man could withstand

No sun longer graced the skies

The shadows ruled both day and night

The nocturnal ones thrived with delight

The night had never been like this before

Feeding from hatred pure

The old land was buried, the storm had just begun

For aeons it would rage as mortals slowly died

The moment was nigh for the time of revenge

As had been promised over thousand years ago

Many moons had passed since war had beed declared

The blood of his servants ran red upon the snow

A new land was rising that darkness made bright

A new king was ruling from a throne of bones

Lakes became frozen for centuries to come

There was no ground left without snow

Layers of frost surrounded the moon

Unlike any season this winter had no end

All that was mortal sank down in snow

Afflicted by the cold they could not prevail

Shadows silent rode through the frosty sky

The fifth of the seasons was the final one

A roar like thunder rolled across the skies

So loud and Mighty the ground began to crumble

The day had come, humanity was sentenced

Their kingdoms turned to grovel

Darkness rode the skies and graced the world with death

Where humanity had ended evil just begun

From that day forward there was only night

The nocturnal winter had arrived

All of the mortals laid dead in the snow

Their frozen bodies sparkled in the frost

There was a cry, an unhuman scream

As the ancient race returned

Their time had come again as they had always known

This time it would last for all eternity

The nocturnal winter ruled the frozen earth

The tyrant lived again
