In the winter cold I see the blood Clotting slowly in the snow Unsung heroes cry in the night May they die before dawn Broken banners mourn fallen crowns Grieving swords lay all around As the swan song touches the mountainside Unseeing eyes look at you Can't you hear it Hear the sorrows wail Oh, you can't see it The newborn day Impaled hearts welcome the end of pain Black blood releasing warrior souls Vultures circle around the fields of grief Another graveyard, another tale
