lyrics

The birds were quiet when it arrived
Only the wind was rising
Through the woods where it would go
To finish what it started

Asking no direction it passed
Door and house by house
To give birth to the storm it came
Armed with a beautiful knife

And the waves crashed to the glades
Enlightened by the pale shaft of moon
Black as the great surges were
Steaming, salty mouth of sea

Where the sanity runs deep
Lie the homes of (the) forgotten
Full of past life memories, seen
Through the eye of the nightingale

Fearless was the goddess in white
Taunted by her visions
Sanctity of the dead in rows
Shades of gray at their harness

The blade was black and dripping with blood
The witch-king´s mouth was open
Necromancer´s prayers were calm
Silent were the towers

So he sank into the waves
Deeper in to the watery grave
Into the dark nothingness
Where The Nameless One sleeps

Where the sanity runs deep
Lie the homes of (the) forgotten
Full of past life memories, seen
Through the eye of the nightingale
