Lyrics Shadowland - Vreid

Shadowland

Trees that have sheltered
Now cut to the ground
They no longer whisper
As they are dragged
Over ancestors' burial mound
Split and planed
Their beauty revealed
The nails bind the wood
A coffin complete
A casket for the body
A journey for the soul
In these landscapes of death
The return to home
Light and shadows
Move side by side
A life without shadows
Is a lifeless ride
All colours faded
A Kingdom in decay
The loved ons long gone
Their spirits chased away
The stars shine silent
The eagle circling prays
As pale as winter
Night has become day
The path has led way
Home to the ground
Echoes of animals screams
Natures mourning sound
The mountains grey of sorrow
The river runs dry
The shadows come full circle
Death embraced life
