Guarding merchants moving 'cross the Druman plains Little did we know the dangers lurking down below Cracking earth and fins were warning signs Tell the drivers; "scatter out", keep them moving on We're drawing weapons, casting spells against a danger so great against an apex predator Gorum bless our swords (The earth trembles beneath us) Warriors evermore (The fight is at hand) Skyward Hoisting our standards, our steel and our might Fight on Striking them down, bringing peace to the night Earth demons rising Roaring loud, the beasts erupt up from their sprays of earth In the darkness screams of pain and startled oaths The captain yells to stand and fight them Guide my horse with just my knees, my greatsword Swings in an arc, connects, time to come around the creature wounded now and angry [bridge] [chorus] Weeks later as we're sipping ales in Highhelm, at the dwarven throne King Borogrim toasts the riches that we brought to the sky citadel Sudden noise at the iron gates, familiar roaring, we know well The mountanside cracks open Bulettes have followed us, now it's time to atone [bridge] [chorus]

Hey Be afraid Of the plants, of the beasts, of the birds Lo! You know that it is so Very much worse than you have heard From here I can hear The hammering of your heart We must be brave in the face of the coming dark Midnight The lich-queen of despair Comes to rein over our lives here We've got everything to fear Darkness Trees that drink the sun Steal your life away Darling You'll come to nothing good If you live your life in the woods Wait! You'll give yourself away! You must be small, and quiet, like a mouse. Slow! Be cautious as you go, Once you're caught, you're never getting out

Journey away No tracks to make, in the sea Silently we take our secrets to the east To the desert, to find, our fates We All Fall Down Far Fathoms to the abyss Prophecy of ancient waters Where we'll bow to the monarch so bold On the Westergale Through snow and wind and hail We'll journey far from home Island of death Fates cross again in this place Steal the jewels from off the coffin Off the ancient queen's final place of rest [pre-chorus] [chorus] And when we are becalmed The only waves we see Come from the powerful steps Of the ocean strider We'll send her forth The elven princess from the west Her vision has guided us this far And we are safe And we are questing for the safety of the land before we'll go home We have oh so many miles to go We have so many promises to keep [pre-chorus] [chorus 2x]
