Lyrics

[00:15.45] No sign of life did flicker
[00:19.32] In floods of tears she cried
[00:23.25] "All hope's lost it can't be undone
[00:27.05] They're wasted and gone"
[00:29.74]
[00:30.61] Save me your speeches, I know
[00:33.54] They blinded us all
[00:34.92] What you want?
[00:35.92] You will take it away from me,
[00:38.34] take it and I know for sure
[00:41.04]
[00:41.66] The light she once brought in is gone forevermore
[00:45.72] Like sorrowful seagulls they sang
[00:48.43] Lost in the deep shades, the misty cloud brought
[00:53.23] Monstrous it covered the shore
[00:55.99]
[00:56.92] Fearful into the unknown,
[00:59.67]
[01:00.54] quietly it crept in new horror
[01:04.22] Insanity reigned and spilled the first blood
[01:12.21] When the old king was slain
[01:15.77] Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
[01:23.07] Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
[01:30.68] Nightfall, immortal land lies down in agony
[01:39.42]
[01:53.02] How long shall we mourn in the dark
[01:56.70] The bliss and the beauty will not return
[02:00.32] Say farewell to sadness and grief
[02:04.13] Though long and hard the road may be
[02:07.97] But even in silence I heard the words
[02:11.96] An oath we shall swear, by the name of the one
[02:15.20] Until the world's end it can't be broken
[02:21.80]
[02:22.93] The doom of the Noldor drew near
[02:25.87]
[02:26.73] The words of a banished king
[02:28.99] I swear revenge filled with anger aflamed our hearts
[02:35.35] Full of hate full of pride we screamed for revenge
[02:41.97] Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
[02:49.26] Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
[02:57.07] Nightfall, immortal land lies down in agony
[03:05.22]
[03:49.48] Vala he is that's what you said
[03:52.15] Then your oath's been sworn in vain
[03:56.06]
[03:57.87] Never trust the northern winds
[03:59.93]
[04:01.55] Never turn your back on friends
[04:03.89] Oh, I'm heir of the high Lord
[04:06.14] You better don't trust him
[04:07.82] The enemy of mine, isn't he of your kind and
[04:11.76] Finally you may follow me, farewell he said
[04:23.92]
[04:29.78] Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
[04:37.15] Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
[04:44.60] Nightfall, immortal land lies down in agony
[04:52.36] Back to where it all began Back to where it all began
