Warrior Lyrics

He heard the winds cry
On to the empty shores
To the crest of the waves
By the shadows of the woods
Following the horned runes
In the stone of secrets
To the perilous paths
Reaping the dark wisdom
Mastering the arts
Blasted by the icy breath
From black waters blowing
In the forest his fire
Spun the fatal ornaments
Of the forefather's sword
Sworn to their ancient soil
Oblivious to pain and war
Enduring the cruel life
To train and march, fight and kill
Into the demoniac heart of battle
This son of north, this child of darkness
Eyes forever upon the trail
Set upon the road of eagles
Towards the alien stars
Into the master's pagan kingdom
And as he drew the oaken bow
Remembering the fiery old nights
His arrow became the eye of death
Wreathed by the nocturnal storm
