Vordr - Old Bark lyrics

rate me

The sun shares it's last rays<br />

A river bathes under the spell<br />

A piece of bark floats across the rocks<br />

As a starling bids farewell<br />

<br />

She sinks behind the tree tops<br />

And the starling takes his leave<br />

The piece of bark floats onwards<br />

'Til a lake so cool and deep<br />

<br />

Surrounded by a ghostly mist<br />

The old bark now stands still<br />

A choir of nightly birds<br />

Sing their lullaby until... <br />

<br />

A clan of men in iron<br />

Make their way along the shore<br />

Of steel and shining armour<br />

The trees stand still in awe<br />

<br />

Yet another human herd<br />

Their end this night shall meet<br />

But the piece of bark cares not<br />

When sinking into the deep<br />

<br />

The moon now appears<br />

In the sky above the woods<br />

The blood of weakling peasants<br />

Nourishes the roots<br />

<br />

An old pine at the river bank<br />

Once again his skin sheds<br />

A piece of old, dry bark<br />

Drops to the river bed<br />

<br />

The pale moon still glimmers<br />

The river bathes under the spell<br />

A piece of bark floats across the rocks<br />

As the night bids farewell<br />

As the night bids farewell
