Cirith Gorgor

Through Burning Wastelands

Cirith Gorgor


Passing fields where once was joy 
They felt the mighty emperor's wrath 
Through woods of eternal winter, wolves howl 
An everlasting serenade to praise the demonkind 

They know who I am, for they are damned for life 
Do they know me from a distant past, from ancient times 
Or have they seen me in a future in their dreams? 

All the innocent will be burned, for I kill and conquer 
The snow turns red, the lakes turn black 
The skies now stand ablaze and swords 
Are raised to hail thee, for thou art back 

Now the sun has failed, a waxing moon 
Now rules the sky, once ablaze, now grey and cold 
Wolves howl day and night, and the weak ones flee 
Where is their god as their end is now to see? 

All the innocent will be burned, for I kill and conquer 
The snow turns red, the lakes turn black 
The skies now stand ablaze and swords 
Are raised to hail thee, for thou art back 

Behold his throne, a majestic shade in the night 
Their screams are heard, but there's nothing they can do 
For we, stormrulers of the two-horned empire 
Now wander eternal and all the lands we rule
