Mountain of Sorrows Lyrics

Days growing longer, the shadows must flee
They day when we must leave draws near
On the horizon the mountain I see
We’ll have to climb it without fear
Teyth, beloved twin brother, come take my hand
Ascenders born to learn the light
You’ll take the western road, I’ll choose the east
The book and the axe be our guide

When night conquers the daylight and winter calls our names
Our roads will differ, will fate be the same

Storms cross my pathways, pillars of stone
And many a strange sight I see
Puppets and demons, warriors and masks
They reveal the dark side to me

Cloisters of silence, houses of life
The mountain is standing, who knows what’s inside
Amazone warriors attack in the night
The hour has come when steel will shine bright

Mountain of sorrows, grown of fear and lies
I’ll climb you forever though blood be the price
Mountain of sorrows, made of doom and fraud
Beware the ascension of him who’ll be god

Teyth, beloved twin brother, close we have come
The mountain tip is right at hand
Verlinden, guardian of women at war
Tonight as one we will stand
Night after night will the sun light our minds
And all our past lives are gone
The killing may go on, yet we know at heart
The war will never be won

Maelir and Faemir on pillars of stone
All children, all siblings of the mountainside
So break all the rules and break all the laws
The guardian of secrets is with us tonight
