Skalds And Shadows
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Would you believe in a night like this
A night like this, when visions come true?
Would you believe in a tale like this
A lay of bliss, a praise in the old lore?
Come to the blazing fire and
See me in the shadows
See me in the shadows
Songs I will sing
Of runes and rings
Just hand me my harp
This night turns into myth
Nothing seems real
You soon will feel
The world we live in is another skald's
Dream in the shadows
Dream in the shadows
Do you believe there is sense in it?
Is it truth or myth?
They're one in my rhymes
Nobody knows the meaning behind
The weaver's line
Well, nobody else but the Norns can
See through the blazing fires of time and
All things will proceed as the
Child of the hallowed
Will speak to you now
See me in the shadows
See me in the shadows
Songs I will sing of tribes and kings
The carrion bird and the hall of the slain
Nothing seems real
You soon will feel
The world we live in is another skald's
Dream in the shadows
Dream in the shadows
Do not fear for my reason
There's nothing to hide
How bitter your treason
How bitter the lie
Remember the runes and remember the light
All I ever want is to be at your side
We gladden the raven now I will
Run through the blazing fires
That's my choice
'Cause things shall procede as foreseen
