Bathory - Blood on Ice lyrics
[Bathory - Blood on Ice lyrics]
The rumbling frozen ground the last
Hooves thundering on the three feet snow
The icy dawn yet to begin
"Bursting through the icy morning
Four times five black shadows ahorse
Steel glimmering in the awakening sun's light
And blood colours the white snow red
Cries echoes through the dark deep woods
Open wounds steam in the cold morning air
And the new day was greeted with a burden
Both raped and dead"
Long golden scalps hung by
The old twin headed beasts standard black
Women and children brought far north
Into the land of no turning back
The burning village spread by
The wind across the tundra
Cry old crow cry
Long tall beautiful people fallen
Lifeless to the ground
Headless scattered still graceful bodies
Blood coloured the white snow all around
Through the dark deep woods to the mountains
Towering to the sky
The wind carries the quest for revenge
And the tale of Blood on Ice
