LYRICS:
The age of the wolf is the age of the sword.
Son of the earth, farther of despair (lurking)
and ever searching to end his thirst
strength reborn in the streams of cold blood
son of the earth, farther of rage (hiding beneath)
and ever smiling when the seed is planted
hate paving the streets of gold.
Long gone is the golden grace
feeble beats from a frozen heart
now glowing eyes in the pale face
the blind man cries in vain.
Long gone is the light of day
searching the borders of sanity
the children of tomorrow they slay
their spirits entombed in rotten soil.
Son of the earth, farther of anxiety (amongst us)
and ever telling the tales of the righteous
licking drops of sorrow from the lake of tears
son of the earth, farther of treason (envy the beauty)
and ever embracing the desperation
hiding from the moonbeams, afraid to face the wrath.
Wandering down the icy path
the sun is dying
the mother is crying
no sadness found in the jester's face
the sun is dying
the mother is crying.
Long gone is the golden grace
feeble beats from a frozen heart
now glowing eyes in the pale face
the blind man cries in vain.
Long gone is the light of day
searching the borders of sanity
the children of tomorrow they slay
their spirits entombed in rotten soil.
The winter is closing in
like the grip of a war within
absence of light turning flesh to stone
a cosmic war and you stand alone.
The winter is closing in
like the grip of a war within
absence of light turning flesh to stone
a cosmic war and you stand alone.
Brother killing brother
tales of honor becoming myth
history written with axes and blood
the wolf is howling at the gate.

sefi of gleypir.
Wandering down the icy path
the sun is dying
silent tears won't bring him back
no sadness found in the jester's face
the mother is crying.
Breach the walls, relieve the pain
or be left in one thousand years of rain.
