Mourning Tide |
| n ice-cold wind |
| Chills to the bone |
| A mistswept veil |
| Clouds the shore |
| Horizons yield to pale light |
| Morning’s embrace, a bitter respite |
| Before the mounds of dead, we mourn |
| Thousands slain for glory forevermore |
| Three days have passed |
| Since we first gave battle |
| A hopeless task |
| Yet we proved our mettle |
| Afoot on foreign shores |
| (Without a hope, without a home) |
| Helms cleaved and shields torn |
| (Spears cracked and axes worn) |
| We few survived to see a new day |
| (And at this day’s end, we will fade away) |
| Into the tales of mortal men |
| (For none yearn to see the sun rise again) |
| We came, not alone |
| A king, a queen and an army |
| Victory, we tasted with our blades |
| Their blood, our blood, now one with the waves |
| Malice’s touch |
| An icy grasp |
| A cruel fate |
| Not to die |
| Bruised and bleeding |
| Exhausted and freezing |
| A cruel fate |
| Not to die |
| Tides, come forth and wash me clean |
| Of grief and loss and misery |
| Sweep the blood into the sea |
| And carry this burden so far from me |
| Free me of the memory |
| Of this blood red scene |
| So many dead as far as can see |
| All in the name of a land once free |
| The dead lie shattered |
| And soon too the dying |
| We few who still cling to life |
| Stumble forth into the tides |
| Our strength has left our bodies |
| As life seeps from our wounds |
| I welcome the cold darkness |
| The warm embrace of ice |
