Winterstorm - A Coming Storm lyrics



Tracks



01. A Coming Storm

The forgotten tale has begun
a legend of a never seen force
sleeping in the mystic mountains
a force to change the world
a power of icy winds, deepest fog
crashing thunder and flaming fire

Now come, come you six brave warriors
and bring together the lost artefact
Awake the frozen dragon
and see the unbent force

The force of the Winterstorm

02. The Final Rise

Forces of thunder awaking inside
I'm raising my sword to the sky
Feelings of glory will strengthen my pride
With hundreds of men at my side

Fight, with pride, the fire will rise in your eyes
Together we bleed. freedom we seek
We'll fight till the end of our lives

Fighting with power of majesty
The shadow will never return
Of thunder and lightning our hearts will be
The feeling of freedom burns
Ride on the power of purity
Like eagles we rush trough the sky
Together we'll face our destiny
The flame in our hearts never dies
Victory has come, this will be the final rise

Like waves in the sea. we step through their lines
The blood on our swords never dries
With fear in their faces, their end will rise
This will be their final fight

Fight, with pride, the fire will rise in your eyes
Together we stand, stand till the end
With blood they will pay our price

Fighting with power of majesty
The shadow will never return
Of thunder and lightning our hearts will be
The feeling of freedom burns
Ride on the power of purity
Like eagles we rush trough the sky
Together we'll face our destiny
The flame in our hearts never dies
Victory has come, this will be the final rise

03. A Wizard's War

Far from the land where the sunrise is born
I am walking in my dreams
To find the infant child still left all alone
I realize the war begins when it is too late
And neither steel nor stone can stop the dawning of my fate

They struck me down with a touch of the blade
I was caught on hostile ground
There was no shelter from their everlasting hate
My armour smashed to pieces now, my soul was torn apart
The question that remained: Could I have seen this from the start?

All on my own I'm fighting a wizard's war
I close my eyes to escape from reality
I never have shown that I'm fighting a wizard's war
For the existence of faith and of purity
Its a wizard's war for me

Still in my eyes see the thundering rage
You will never bring me down
Though on my knees I will be crawling back in place
A power greater than your hate, the strength to carry on
To rise again in all my pride, my victory has come

All on my own I'm fighting a wizard's war
I close my eyes to escape from reality
I never have shown that I'm fighting a wizard's war
For the existence of faith and of purity
It's a wizard's war for me

04. March On The Peaks

Instrumental

05. Winterheart

I have come with the winter sun - in my eyes
From the land of fire and snow - blood will rise
Far beyond the hills guided by the will
Of the one and what I've become
Is the archon of my tribe
So I'm marching on where no one has gone
Ever before me now
So I will lead the way

Oh, hear it in the oaken trees
Oh, feel it from the ground beneath
See what no one's eye can see
From the bottom of my winterheart

Say farewell to well-known shores - sword at hand
I set sail into the unknown - till my end
Out and on my own destiny has shown
What it has in mind for me now
And that I will prevail somehow

Plunge into the waves as I clench my blade
I remember that my success
Is the reason for your faith in me

Oh, hear it in the oaken trees
Oh, feel it from the ground beneath
See what no one's eye can see
From the bottom of my winterheart

06. Fortune's Blood

Silently the night has fallen
For hours on our knees we've been crawling
Bringing torture and dismay
With the dawning of the day

See what the elders told
Will prove to be our destiny
For the fortune's blood
Will rise in our sacred heart

Hear the battledrums at night
They are calling for the fight
That's what we are coming for
Its the power of the north

See what the elders told
Will prove to be our destiny
For the fortune's blood
Will rise in our sacred heart

07. Climb The Highest Mountains

Long ago, in a time filled with fear
Lived a very brave man
With his daughters, wife and sons
Then he simply disappeared

Time has come
War has begun
Death and hate
Shall be your fate
Coming home
All alone
No one knows

Life's so hard for me to begin
But my father told me to hope
In those days I lost all of you
But the light of heaven's shining through

And I climb the highest mountains
In my heart a flame still burns
And I'm flying like an eagle
To the skies of no return
And I fight against the shadows
Of the night and of the day
Too many battles left to fight
I should go on my knees and pray

Time goes by, you're old enough my son
To begin a new part of your life
Leave your home, leave your family
Take your sword and shield
Put the saddle on your horse

Day and night, dark and light
Fear and strength, life and death
Stop and go, sword or bow, no one know

Life's so hard for you to begin
But I've told you what you have done
On this day I say farewell to you
And the light of moon is shining through

And I climb the highest mountains
In my heart a flame still burns
And I'm flying like an eagle
To the skies of no return
And I fight against the shadows
Of the night and of the day
Too many battles left to fight
I should go on my knees and pray

Now l'm on the top of mountains
And the flames are never cold
I'm still flying like an eagle
As my father always told
And I won against the shadows
Of the day and of the night
And the only thing I can see
Is the everlasting light

08. Battlecry

Out of the darkness there comes a new foe
Hate and brutality is what they show
Marching in line and gathering up
That's what they do, they cannot be stopped

Awoken by greed that fills up your heart
They picture the hate you've had from the start
There is no way out as they're coming for you
They are the threat, you know what to do

They make no convicts that is their code
This is the destiny that you evoke
Can you see the deadly gaze in their eyes?
Your ears will hear their battlecries

Listen to what I have to say
Hear my words as I will lead the way
Follow me and well never be apart
Just stab your blade right into their hearts

They are the shadows that nobody knows
The annihilation that constantly grows
Merciless they are now seeking for blood
Lifeless bodies sink clown in the mud

There's no escape and you cannot hide
There is no cure, only one glimpse of light
You know that they are now ending your lies
The last thing you hear is their battlecries

Listen to what I have to say
Hear my words as I will lead the way
Follow me and we'll never be apart
Just stab your blade right into their hearts

All of your longing for power and gold
Is decaying, there's nothing to hold
They can soon fulfill their horrible quest
Until they've reached it, they will not rest

Look at your hands, they're bloody and red
Isn't that what the prophecy said?
You are the chosen one who ends their lives
Let them hear your battlecry

Listen to what I have to say
Hear my words as I will lead the way
Follow me and we'll never be apart
Just stab your blade right into their hearts

09. Winterhumppa

There is a sound of music, listen to the night
The moon is rising and the stars are shining bright
At the horizon is the everlasting light
And now we sing together, humppa through the night

Hey hey hey hey hey hey humppa humppa
Hey hey hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey hey Winterhumppa
Hey hey hey hey hey hey

So now you clap your hands and stamp your feet loud
Just to the Winterhumppa, let me hear your shout

I saw you dancing and the only thing could be
I saw you clap your hands and saw you stamp your feet
The night is long and this is good for me to see
You like the Winterhumppa, sing along with me

Hey hey hey hey hey hey humppa humppa
Hey hey hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey hey Winterhumppa
Hey hey hey hey hey hey

So now you clap your hands and stamp with your feet loud
Just to the Winterhumppa, let me hear your shout

10. Thirst Of Revenge

When the war is over
And there's silence all around
There's a sad time for everyone

And the corpses of our
Troops are lying on the ground
There's a bad time for everyone

There's a fire that is burning in our hearts
Only one thing that we pray for in that night
And we ask them tell us why
Our brothers had to die
On the other side we'll meet them again

In our hearts the flame is still burning
In our hearts their lives go on
And we cry out the pain and we pray that
This fight can be won

See the shimmering lights on our swords
Hold the banner deep in your hands
The revenge for our brothers is coming
The revenge for their death 'til the end

Now we march against the hordes
The moonlight shines upon the field
There's no right, there's no wrong for anything
And the sound of battlecries
That is howling through the night
We are fighting for everything

There's a fire that is burning in our hearts
Only one thing that we pray for in that night
And we ask them tell us why
Our brothers had to die
On the other side we'll meet them again

In our hearts the flame is still burning
In our hearts their lives go on
And we cry out the pain and we pray that
This fight can be won

See the shimmering lights on our swords
Hold the banner deep in your hands
The revenge for our brothers is coming
The revenge for their death 'til the end
