ELVENPATH LYRICS

1. The Land That Could Not Be

In the east where the sun would rise
I know a country in disguise
Can’t speak your word, can’t breathe without fear
For every minute death is near
For 20 years they’ve been fighting so hard
Fighting for justice, to live by their hearts
When the army of darkness came
To bring them hatred’s burning flame

Clouds of hate blacken the sky
Here’s no sun to watch them die
Death and terror for the free
In the land that could not be

Forbidden soil that must not exist
A million hands turning into fists
Forever they’ll fight for their honour and land
A million graves in the sand
What will you do if they carry on
They will come to you next after this land is gone
A hungry monster with greed for guilt
Until the last drop of blood is spilt

Tell me how much longer will it take
Until they can see the light
Still the world watches on
How much longer will they have to fight

2. Shade Of A Wolf's Face

He is following the path over mountains
His fellow’s with him and they’re following the sun
Their aim is not to walk just that straight on
Enjoying that time and everything around

Ordinary life – it seems to him
Like tunnel vision
Is it so hard to live right now
The two were about to find the answer

In slow motion and in silence
There is nothing to lose
He said: fellow shouldn’t we hurry
To get no sense of passing by the days

Whatever may come we don’t know if there’s one
Life after this one on earth
May someone have been and really have seen
It’s hard to believe in a world in “the beyond”
What I have seen is nothing else but my life
And I have been only on this one side
I know there’s no chance to live again
There is no chance to turn back time

He’s looking at the clouds up in the sky
Animating fantasies while they are passing by
Some animals laugh and some seem scary
The clouds on these photos he is watching now

Have the shape of the face of a wolf

Watching the photos it’s so hard lo believe
But this is pure reality
These photos are the last of his friend
He had followed this beautiful sunset

And got where he couldn’t get back

Whatever may come we don’t know if there’s one
Life after this one on earth
May someone have been and really have seen
It’s hard to believe in a world in “the beyond”
What he has seen is nothing else but his life
And he has been only on this one side
He knows there’s no chance to live again
There is no chance to turn back time

3. Amazone Queen

Figures of darkness, eternal night
Ruling this land, no sanctuary to find
Raping and killing, a murderous game
Legions of evil that no man can tame
This land knows no freedom, this land knows no peace
Just hunger and poverty, crime and disease
Praying for a saviour, they got no more power
As they kneel crying before the dark tower

Hooves sound like thunder, call for salvation
A voice of steel rings out for liberation

Over the mountains and down to the sea
The warrior princess rides
Fighting for glory, her heartland to free
Eyes of light, steel at her side
Amazone queen, no trace of fear
Face the evil, fight till death and freedom will be here
Amazone queen, before thee we kneel
Praise the bravest warrior ever seen

She gathers her warriors, she stands tall with pride
Draws now her sword, it is shimmering with light
Raises it high up into the air
Her pounding battlecry’s heard everywhere
The battle is raging, the stars they turn black
They who once were slaves now lead the attack
Breaking their chains and their tyrant’s dethroned
The mighty dark tower crumbling stone by stone

The warrior princess led us out of misery
The land is freed, gone are the days of slavery
Amazone warrior, princess we hail thee
Enthroned in triumph, crowned to be our queen

4. Winterland

The snow is falling, covering the land
A world in white that makes my heart freeze
There'll be no thaw today, there hasn't been for years
I wonder if the cold will ever cease

There's no one in the streets, no smiling face
The ice has conquered all the hearts
As long as I remember there's never been no green
The season has been winter from the start

Eternal darkness that nothing can destroy
In this cruel winterland
There's no love here, no freedom and no joy
In this evil winterland

I've heard a legend that there could be a sun
Though I have never felt her shine on my head
A world of endless snowfall, this place is hell
Men with zombie brains - the living dead

I can't bear this agony any more
But I'm tied to this land of ice
My chains are icy steel, the frost is in my blood
And I can feel my strength's demise

I can't take it any longer
Gathering all that's left inside me
And I take my fate in my own hands

Tonight I'm gonna break my chains
I bid farewell to all of this
Tonight I will escape from winterland

5. The Sacred Talisman

Your mother lies silently dying
But you cannot stay with her now
Listen son to what I’ve told you
The one choice you have is to go
Morgan of Orris is waiting
By treason the heir to the throne
The fate of a world that is trembling
Is placed now in your hands alone

Close your eyes and take a journey to the other side
In the shadows walk and from the claws of darkness hide

Ride on across the lands of hate
The queen lies dying in pain
Save the world from the evil one
Go and find the sacred talisman

The setting sun it keeps your secret
Be it true or just fantasy
The isle of dark nightmares awaits you
Challenging black forces unseen

Never let them take your strength and hold your head up high
And you’ll be crowned victorious when darkness’ fall is nigh

Darkest fears and unknown horrors they will pave your way
Our homes and heartlands in the shadows of decay
Territories of beyond shall not fall prey to sin
And we’ll see beloved queen Laura reign in light again
