|
No sign of life did flicker |
|
In floods of tears she cried |
|
"All hope's lost it can't be undone |
|
They're wasted and gone" |
|
|
|
"Save me your speeches |
|
I know (They blinded us all) |
|
What you want |
|
You will take it away from me |
|
Take it and I know for sure |
|
The light she once brought in |
|
Is gone forevermore" |
|
|
|
Like sorrowful seaguls they sang |
|
"(We're) lost in the deep shades |
|
The misty cloud brought |
|
(A wailing when beauty was gone |
|
Come take a look at the sky) |
|
Monstrous it covered the shore |
|
Fearful into the unknown" |
|
Quietly it crept in new horror |
|
Insanity reigned |
|
And spilled the first blood |
|
When the old king was slain |
|
|
|
[chorus:] |
|
Nightfall |
|
Quietly crept in and changed us all |
|
Nightfall |
|
Quietly crept in and changed us all |
|
Nightfall |
|
Immortal land lies down in agony |
|
|
|
"How long shall we |
|
Mourn in the dark |
|
the bliss and the beauty |
|
Will not return |
|
Say farewell to sadness and grief |
|
Though long and hard the road may be" |
|
But even in silence I heard the words |
|
"An oath we shall swear |
|
By the name of the one |
|
Until the world's end |
|
It can't be broken" |
|
|
|
Just wondering how |
|
I can still hear these voices inside |
|
|
|
The doom of the Noldor drew near |
|
|
|
The words of a banished king |
|
"I swear revenge" |
|
Filled with anger aflamed our hearts |
|
Full of hate full of pride |
|
We screamed for revenge |
|
|
|
[chorus] |
|
|
|
"Vala he is that's what you said |
|
Then your oath's been sworn in vain |
|
(But) freely you came and |
|
You freely shall depart |
|
(So) never trust the northern winds |
|
Never turn your back on friends" |
|
|
|
"Oh I'm heir of the high lord!" |
|
"You better don't trust him" |
|
The enemy of mine |
|
Isn't he of your kind and |
|
Finally you may follow me |
|
Farewell |
|
He said |
|
|
|
[chorus] |
|
|
|
Back to where it all began |
