Honor, Power, Glory

Without honor, without glory, we shall never return
Without power we shall rise and fall
Without honor, without glory, we shall never prevail
We shall heed the call of our kingdom again
Once we ruled the land, coast to coast and swords at hand
Bearing the crest of our house, clashing steel with no remorse
We, the bringer of light, riding down
Without fear we claimed it all, ignoring the portents of doom
Without honor, without glory, we shall never return
Without power we shall rise and fall
Without honor, without glory, we shall never prevail
We shall heed the call of our kingdom again
With our backs to the wall, darkness and fear take grip on our hearts
Watching our empire fall, losing sight of our will and our hope
We, the ghosts of the brave, lost and forlorn
Reaping all that we have sown, awaiting our time to return
Without honor, without glory, we shall never return
Without power we shall rise and fall
Without honor, without glory, we shall never prevail
We shall heed the call of our kingdom again
Freedom for us all, these were our fields, these were our shores
Bound and wrapped in chains, the fires of rage, burning our souls
Without honor, we will, never return
Without power, we will, never endure
Without glory, we will, never prevail
We shall rise once again!
Bound by honor, seeking glory we will never give in
Wielding power we will vanquish our foes
Bound by honor, seeking glory we will reclaim our throne
Our kingdom will rise once again
Bound by honor, seeking glory we will never give in
Wielding power we will vanquish our foes
Bound by honor, seeking glory we will reclaim our throne
Honor, power, glory rings out through the night
Out through the night! Glory rings out through the night

The frozen winter sky welcomes me home
Locked in a field of ice, my ancestral throne
Into the darkened light, I shall return
Feast in the torches' glare, they all will burn
Oh, though the sun is gone, we’ll march far and long
Over mountains and snow-capped hills we will stand
Reach out and claim this land by our hand
So we ride, and we fight, for our clan of iron and ice
To ignite the sacred flame that binds our swords to the light
And we ride, and we fight, for a graven power to wield
We hold up the ancient blade that sings our song through the night
On fearsome beasts we ride to southern lands
Off through the frozen wastes to save our clan
The gods will sing their songs of our tales
Cloaked in the battlemist, a howling gale
Oh, though the sun is gone, we’ll march far and long
Over mountains and snow-capped hills we will stand
Reach out and claim this land by our hand
So we ride, and we fight, for our clan of iron and ice
To ignite the sacred flame that binds our swords to the light
And we ride, and we fight, for a graven power to wield
We hold up the ancient blade that sings our song through the night
The sun is dying, and the world grows colder... A clan of warriors living
in a frigid mountain range decide the only way to save their people is to march south, into the hostile lands...
The March of the Northern Clan!
So we ride, and we fight, for our clan of iron and ice
To ignite the sacred flame that binds our swords to the light
So we ride, and we fight, for our clan of iron and ice
To ignite the sacred flame that binds our swords to the light
And we ride, and we fight, for a graven power to wield
We hold up the ancient blade that sings our song through the night
Ride! Die! Iron, bloody ice!

A Storm of Crimson Fire
03:29
|
|||
|
Look to the sky, the pounding of black wings
Blotting out the sunlight, in hunger they sing
The fear in your eyes, a chill within your soul
Descending upon us and taking our throne
Now it's time, they've arrived
A storm of crimson fire, behold the primal force
They roam the sky and see the rise of a dead sun shining forth
A storm of crimson fire, no fear of king or sword
With tooth and claw, defy the law, destroy our fabled shores
Dragon lords
Into the fray, our history erased
Turning kingdoms into ashes, a thunderous display
Run for your lives, and hear their battle cry
As the roaring flames lay painted 'cross the canvas of the sky
Rising high, they will fly, all your prayers have been in vain
The end is nigh, time to die
A storm of crimson fire, behold the primal force
They roam the sky and see the rise of a dead sun shining forth
A storm of crimson fire, no fear of king or sword
With tooth and claw, defy the law, destroy our fabled shores
Dragon lords
A storm of crimson fire, behold the primal force
They roam the sky and see the rise of a dead sun shining forth
A storm of crimson fire, no fear of king or sword
With tooth and claw, defy the law, destroy our fabled shores
Dragon lords
A storm of crimson fire
The tale of our destruction
A storm of crimson fire
Our homeworld reduced to blood and ash

When the World Was Young
04:06
|
|||
|
I’ve seen the power of cosmic ruin...
I’ve felt the fury that came before the doom...
The wars and horrors as empires rise and fall...
I heard the call of the storm!
When the world was young, where might and magic reigned
When the world was young, and free from all its pain
When the world was young, I wish I could remain
In the place I had known for so long
When the world was young
The works and wonders with powers yet unknown
Enchanting secrets of ancient legends gone
No creature great or small would ever come to harm
The hills would ring with the call of their song
But then the sky turned red
And all their majesty fell silent forevermore
When the world was young, where might and magic reigned
When the world was young, and free from all its pain
When the world was young, forget the inhumane
You must fight for the world, break it free from its chains
Remember all you have learned, if we are ever to survive
One day the world will return
When the world was young, where might and magic reigned
When the world was young, and free from all it’s pain
When the world was young, forget the inhumane
You must fight for the world, break it free from its chains
When the world was young, where might and magic reigned
When the world was young, and free from all it’s pain
When the world was young, I wish I could remain
In the place I had known for so long
When the world was young

Eldenfire

If I could ride the sky, I’d leave it all behind
Diving through the clouds, surpassing all space and time
Like seekers from the old, expanses untold
Fade into the darkness of our memory
Give me infinite light, glittering white
Gleaming and reflecting with the secrets of time
Unfolding my sails, catching the gale
Traversing the starlit trail
I’m searching for the Eldenfire
Unlock the way to celestial flight
I dream of the endless stars
Forging my path to the gateways of worlds beyond
What’s this, oh can it be? Some cruel fantasy
The mythic fire of legend or do my eyes deceive
I watch the sky turn gold, with powers foretold
My voyage of the cosmos, my galactic odyssey
Behold Infinite light, glittering white
Gleaming and reflecting with the secrets of time
Unfolding my sails, catching the gale
Traversing the starlit trail
I’m searching for the Eldenfire
Unlock the way to celestial flight
I dream of the endless stars
Forging my path to the gateways of worlds beyond
The land of old, a dream foretold...
I’m searching for the Eldenfire
Unlock the way to celestial flight
I dream of the endless stars
Forging my path to the gateways of worlds beyond
I’m searching for the Eldenfire
Unlock the way to celestial flight
I dream of the endless stars
Forging my path to the gateways of worlds beyond

Defy the Night
04:03
|
|||
|
We were born under dusk and the moonlight
In the eye of an infinite burning star, doomed to roam lands afar
Prophecy with the promise of birthright
Fighting strong with no fear we will carry on
Facing the great beyond
Flee the surface and take to the skies, fly before it’s too late
Charge the engines before we meet our fiery fate
Defy the night
Shoot for the starlight, traveling deeper into the unknown
Defy the night
Shoot for the starlight, seeking our home
Cast adrift in the shadows and darkness
Sacrificing the seeds that we have sown, cursed forever to roam
Destiny of the lost and helpless
Reaching out through the chaos of space and time
Rising we will shine
Pay no heed to the demons of doubt, know it’s never too late
Steel your heart and find the will to seize your fate
Defy the night
Shoot for the starlight, traveling deeper into the unknown
Defy the night
Shoot for the starlight, seeking our home
Defy the night
Shoot for the starlight, traveling deeper into the unknown
Defy the night
Shoot for the starlight, seeking our home
Defy the night
Fire at midnight, leaving our world for the horrors untold
Defy the night
Fire at midnight, seeking our home
Finding a light in the dark
Defy the night

Sign of the Dragonlord
04:33
|
|||
|
We’ve arrived, we’ve ridden through the night
Under starlit skies
Airborne kings, with thunder in our wings
Our metal beast bestride
Far and long, our vessel journeys on
Over the mountains we set our course beyond
Waging the wars of one thousand kingdoms cold
Wasted valleys, their riches we behold
We bear the sign of the Dragonlord, a crimson banner of fire and steel
We are knights of the sky-born horde
For death and glory we take flight, for death and glory we shall rise
Your fight is lost, you cannot bear the cost
Our flaming beacon strikes
Hoist our colors high, they know not who they fight
We own the sea and the sky
The dragon’s eye, great symbol lost in time
Her ancient alloy gleams in the night
Through wind and rain, her fire breathes again
Discharge her weapon of flame
We bear the sign of the Dragonlord, a crimson banner of fire and steel
We are knights of the sky-born horde
For death and glory we take flight, for death and glory we shall rise
Feeding the beast, the life-force that she needs
Within the ruins, bleeding
Ignite the core, O mechanist of yore
We ride on iron wings!
We bear the sign of the Dragonlord, a crimson banner of fire and steel
We are knights of the sky-born horde
For death and glory we take flight
For death and glory
We bear the sign of the Dragonlord, a crimson banner of fire and steel
We are knights of the sky-born horde
For death and glory we take flight, for death and glory we shall rise

Glorious
03:33
|

|
I’ve seen the light, I’ve seen the rising of our star
I’ve felt the power burning deep inside its core
Now stand with me and then you’ll see what we are fighting for
We’ve felt a guiding force with strength we can’t ignore
O, When the sun goes cold we’ll reap the just rewards
It’s glorious, the battle rages come and fight with us
Fight with us
It’s glorious, we’ll turn the tide and be victorious
In glory we’ll reshape the sky
Unsheathe the blade, it’s time to wet our swords with blood
You’ve heard the call, now we must rise before the flood
Let’s end the reign of this decay, you shall not fight alone
Reach out and take my hand, humanity atones
O, when the sun burns out we’ll shine our light anew
It’s glorious, the battle rages come and fight with us
Fight with us
It’s glorious, we’ll turn the tide and be victorious
In glory we’ll reshape the sky
It’s glorious, the dawn is rising and it shines on us
It shines on us...
It’s glorious, the battle rages come and fight with us
Fight with us
It’s glorious, we’ll turn the tide and be victorious
In glory we’ll reshape the sky

Volaråd
03:24

Volaråd, brewed from afar
On a journey to drink the galaxy
A substance lost to legend, created from the dark
The ultimate expression of science and of art
Through centuries of experiments, a taste of the unknown
Exciting all your senses... Body, mind, and soul
Target locked, none can stop us now!
Volaråd, drink of the gods
Search the universe, star to star
Volaråd, brewed from afar
Nectar celestial, legendary
Volaråd, drink of the gods
Feel the infinite cosmic spark
Volaråd, brewed from afar!
On a journey to tear apart
The fabric of reality, beginning to unwind
The flavor is a mystery, distorting space and time
Imbued with perfect harmony, the stars have all aligned
Defiant and almighty, the power is all mine
Fill your cups, we will savor every drop!
Volaråd, drink of the gods
Search the universe, star to star
Volaråd, brewed from afar
Nectar celestial, legendary
Volaråd, drink of the gods
Feel the infinite cosmic spark
Volaråd, brewed from afar
On a journey to drink the galaxy
Volaråd, curse of the gods
Heads are pounding and seeing stars
Volaråd, curse of the gods
Cosmic hangover, legendary
Volaråd, curse of the gods
Drain the bottle and hit the floor
Volaråd, curse of the gods
On a journey to do it all again
