Raventhrone

Eaters Of The Dead

Raventhrone


the midnight sun above the ruins 
darkness drapes the land 
a peaceful scene in the dark of night 
the carnival of souls 

far away lands of kings and queens 
in peril they now are 
a messenger sent to seek the brave 
to free the land enslaved... 
a violent creature in the mountain dwells 
and preys on the child of man 
the eaters of the dead they are 
a dread from ancient times 
fear the dark and the mist it brings 
from the hillsides roars are heard 
a battle rages to slay the beats 
a fight to free the land 

on nightfall of the 7th day 
battle cries were heard 
broken bodies the price they pay 
for a battle fought and won 

a broken beast lies conquered now 
as a land is freed at last 
a tyrant's rule now torn apart 
as the grendel's body breaks
