RAM LYRICS

1. The Shadowwork

Veteran of a thousand wars
Rammer of a thousand walls
For your world I never had respect
A flock of sheep in ignorance deep
In your shadows I would creep
Adversary of your reality

I am the darkest king
My soul is my device
Lord of the world within
Devoid of all the lies

I leave this fight in victory
Nothing more for me to see
I have cracked the mirror that you used to be

Moving on from this trench
Moving on from the stench
Leaving you to blindly stumble on

Twilight is falling, I dose my eyes
I pass through the gate to beyond
My queen will guide me, enlighten the dark
Her scythe carves the walls and the vaults
Shadows are calling, calling my name
I embrace my crown and my reign
All from the inside, the dark within all
My power unlimited

The end is where it all begins
To wash away all the sins
To submerge into the purity of black

My soul will boundlessly expand
Here I create and I command
Destroying all to become all in one

I am the one, the chosen one, I have chosen to become one. No more of many. No more of the mass, all illusions, reflections are gone. I walk in the shadows, in perpetual night, to shine with the splendour of I. Beyond the shackles of the blinding light I create what never will die

[Lead MJ]
[Lead HG]

This is the art of shadow work
The awaken day, a veil of murk
One cannot find the light where all is bright

2. Blades of Betrayal

I felt a shadow fall, fall upon our holy bond
Was it in your eyes? Could I have even seen in time
Now you hide away, spineless and honourless
Was it worth the price that you will pay?

Walking behind me, my back the target was
Sharpening you knives, waiting in cold blood
To stab and steal and run, leave me writing in pain
Treachery stings far more than the wounds

Blades of betrayal glimmer in the dark
A trail of blood leads to the cursed gallows
Spirit of vengeance make the fallen stand
Treacherous one you are cursed and damned

[Lead MJ]
[Lead HG]

I gave you high command, marched with you into war
Back to back we fought, in loss and victory
But after all these years you revealed your true nature
Slithering and crawling through the dirt

Blades of betrayal glimmer in the dark
A trail of blood leads to the cursed gallows
Spirit of vengeance make the fallen stand
Treacherous one you are cursed and damned

3. Fang and Fur

With winter came cold death
The white Siberian breath
It howled across the plains
Freezing the blood inside your veins

I rip my way through flesh and bone to dominate
Unite the packs under my howl

Pale helpless prey
Will die today
Die in a storm of fang and fur
The super pack
It will attack
Kill under my command

They left the church with horse and sleigh
Bride and groom they led the way
Scared horses stopped in thin tracks
Before an unholy blood cloud of lack

[Lead MJ]
[Lead HG]

When the winters become to hard and all the prey dies
Then they unite the packs, into thousands of wolves
Hunger is the god of tundra and flesh must be hunted
So beware you soft humans, no one is safe
From upon the ridge we saw them come
In moments they were overrun

4. Violence (Is Golden)

The wheels must turn
Power demands it
The witch must burn
Heretic branded

Pay you're entitled
Work you're a slave
Beg for your own shackles

Oppression in concession
Overtaken by force
Protection of correction
Submit or remorse
The violent treachery
Embraced in infamy
Forgery the law

Tax on tax
To pay the system
The war machine
Employed to get killed
You vote for liars
Who you pay to rule you
Vote for protection
Of state, from the people

[Lead MJ]
[Lead HG]

Surrender your arms by authority
All men are evil it's easy to see
I do not trust you but I trust myself
And the extension of me is the almighty state

5. The Trap

All lances, passengers, pawns and drones
All in place to the make cogwheels run
The watchful eye always observing you
Supervising the game that you always lose

The play is rigged brother
Your bill is counterfeit
The ante is your brother

Don't look up, keep your eye on every step
You just don't want to know what's really up
Obey your papers, worship your TV
So much you've seen but you still can't see

You're walking on straight line into the trap
You're walking on straight line, ain't looking back
Can't you see the blood trails into the trap
The writings on the wall, get off the track

[Lead HG]
[Lead MJ]

Work all day, come home and say goodnight
Get up early to go feed the parasite

6. No Refuge

In the mists of mystification
At the borders of the undefined
Shrouded in the veils of Shaim
Shaping keys pf the rays of starlight
Speaking words that won't be heard
Weaving webs within the darkness

Its power is growing
For it was struck down
Spirit of defiance
Spreading its wings
The blood of dishonour
On burial ground
Powers the revival
Embodies the curse

There is no refuge from that which rising
Rising again
Oaths have been sworn over dagger and chalice
Rising again

The buried emerge restless
Shards of moon in their eyes
In the sign of the true cross
Horns upon the skull of Amon
Alpha to the omega
Pyramids beneath the silent sphinx

Well you know there is no refuge, no exit, no escape
It's rising

[Lead HG]
[Lead MJ]

The shedding of skin by the giant within
The knight of the staffs comes with flame
The halo vibrating with force

He can see what will be because all of it is his to reap
If you know what sow then all it is yours to keep

Never reacting to the world distracting
The light is the beacon and guide
Visions unfurling and omens returning
The magus controlling in might

Secret is the voice of power
That which must be found and won
Pen up the gates inverted, again and again
Hear the call from the void inside you
Step beyond and ascend

7. Spirit Reaper

In night side of the realm of dreams
In a glance in the hidden mirrors
Stares the eye that never rests and it sees every
Mover that you make
You don't believe in the supernatural world
You only fear what you see before you
But a gate has opened far beyond the frail ends of your mind

Oh darkness
Our mistress
Take the soul
Of the one we curse tonight

Spirit Reaper, the webs of woven fate ensnare you now
Spirit Reaper, invoked in darkest hate, it's on the prowl
Spirit Reaper, the end is near, you scream in fear but no one hears
Spirit Reaper, hex of eternal night, your soul it takes

In the mists that cloud your naive mind
Your subconscious house of horrors
Seeds are planted in the fertile soil of your ignorant bliss
Paranoia begins to dawn inside
All your dreams turn to nightmares
Every time you dose your tired eyes the darkness come alive

Your soul is now ripe and prepared for the taking
A cruel, haunting voice from beyond calls your name
The hunter has found its prey

[Lead HG]
[Lead MJ]

8. You All Leave

A wind of emptiness, whistles and howls within me
It whispers names that makes my weary heart freeze
All that you left is a shadow cast upon my life
A mirror in shards and it cuts deep like a knife

The sadness that you bore is now my oak to bear
You left it but it has not gone anywhere
At times I'm ready to take the same road as you did
But a fog veils that path, I can never come through

This world kills all of the souls that are true
Can you blame those who go before they are due?
Beneath the scar tissue you can see my black, battered heart
My pain is like yours but I just cannot depart

You all leave
You sought the end of the road
You all leave
At last you met your destiny
You all leave
No return, no words, no denial
You all leave
Leave for all eternity

[Lead MJ]

9. Ravnfell

In defiance of notion
Roosted beyond time
The mountain still stands like a dagger of stone
Disturbing the current, stabbing the order

The ravens they cry
Cry for sacrifice
Cry for the cold, sacred flesh to devour
The blood still runs red, still stains beyond denial

Oh darkness in the heart of the veil
Blood, blade and truth will prevail
I stand where men stood before me, dagger held high

The ancient force of bones and dust
Still flows in the veins of those who bear the call
The call from the grave
The voices of power

Trees and animals
Winds and star light
All synchronise to the flow of the night
Dark ecstasy, Invisible fire

A cold cry of death
A shadow on the crescent moon
Ancient spirits arise
Here on the top of Ravnfell

Unchained, unbroken, unbowed
My lineage whispers to me
Here the arts I perform
Here on the top of Ravnfell

Oh you are blind, poor children of the sensory
You cannot see this blight on your truth
Here in the heart if where you think it's safe to
Bet the ravens still caw in your dreams

Maybe one day when your world sinks into the sea
Maybe then you'll return to the mountain again
Return and stand trial for your ignorant treachery
Fall to your knees and repent
