Lyrics

[00:00.74] The Essence Of The Ashes-Eluveitie
[00:28.85] And it came to pass
[00:32.18] In those leaden days
[00:34.21] That a plain, poor man
[00:37.84] Got sick of his yoke
[00:40.59] Of condemned soil
[00:43.32] And foreign empires hungry purse
[00:46.20] Time to replace
[00:48.69] Pitchfork with sword
[00:51.80] And sound the anthem
[00:54.67] Of sheer rebellion
[00:57.18] EnoughOnce too often
[01:02.42] EnoughIs enough
[01:08.22] We strive not for war
[01:10.95] We just crave to have our home
[01:13.75] We just seek to have the rights
[01:16.41] That our fathers used to have
[01:19.44] We strive not for war
[01:22.06] We just crave to have our home
[01:24.76] We just seek to have the rights
[01:27.62] That our fathers used to have
[01:33.27] We tasted grime and blood
[01:39.19] We know the essence of ashes
[01:43.04] A glowing spark
[01:45.46] Rising up from blazing flames
[01:48.15] To lead the forlorn and wrath
[01:50.08] The epitome of hope
[01:54.23] A daring venture
[01:56.78] A frantic attempt
[01:59.41] When Amandus was slain
[02:02.45] The Bagundae still sang
[02:04.48] We strive not for war
[02:07.19] We just crave to have our home
[02:10.00] We just seek to have the rights
[02:12.83] That our fathers used to have
[02:15.69] We strive not for war
[02:18.34] We just crave to have our home
[02:21.21] We just seek to have the rights
[02:23.94] That our fathers used to have
[03:01.02] EnoughOnce too often
[03:06.45] EnoughIs enough
[03:12.15] We strive not for war
[03:14.71] We just crave to have our home
[03:17.36] We just seek to have the rights
[03:20.24] That our fathers used to have
[03:23.19] We strive not for war
[03:25.83] We just crave to have our home
[03:28.48] We just seek to have the rights
[03:31.19] That our fathers used to have
[03:35.11] Ah~
[03:38.63] We tasted grime and blood
[03:43.43] We know the essence of ashes
