Fen - As Buried Spirits Stir lyrics

rate me

And I watched the sun cross the sky<br />

A thousand thousand times, <br />

From within this tomb of earth, <br />

Waiting patiently for the sign, <br />

<br />

To be called by those who would summon us forth to wander once more, <br />

Under the waning moon across the bleakness of the fens.<br />

<br />

Once, many centuries ago, we were kings, <br />

Of an age now forgotten, <br />

Our dominion absolute, <br />

Our realms bound only by black seas and cliffs of ice.<br />

<br />

By sword and fire, blood and honour, we exacted our rule, <br />

Commanding the landscape with dread force, bereft of mercy.<br />

<br />

Now, we can hear the calling of desperate souls, <br />

Who have stood and watched these ancient fields raped, <br />

Scars run across what once was ours.<br />

Through the dust of ages, rage stirs us to walk once again.<br />

<br />

To stride unbound and unfettered under a shroud of twilight, <br />

Our pales eyes surveying the rotten remnants of a once-proud kingdom, <br />

The winds howl, the trees shiver, the harriers scream.<br />

As our deathmarch begins again.
