As the daylight begins to fade away
And the ravens take to the wing
Silently I relive my memories
By torchlight within my halls
These hands wrought
Countless wrongs
In my plight
To take the throne
The righteous men of old
Forced upon me
Tasks untold
Innocent lives I've slayed
Long ago I took up my blade
Ashes of my woe
Fell upon me
On and on
And into the fray
My withered armour falls away
The crown placed upon my brow
And rule of the realm draped upon me
Robed in kingly garb, the masses set before me
Their hopes and fears are now my charge
Long ago I took up my blade
Ashes of my woe
Fell upon me
On and on
And into the fray
My withered armour falls away
Overcome
By blood and fire
My father's legacy
I now hold
Long ago I took up my blade
Ashes of my woe
Fell upon me
On and on
And into the fray
My withered armour falls away
Now I stand at the end of my days
Vanquished my foes
And remember the way
And the ravens take to the wing
Silently I relive my memories
By torchlight within my halls
These hands wrought
Countless wrongs
In my plight
To take the throne
The righteous men of old
Forced upon me
Tasks untold
Innocent lives I've slayed
Long ago I took up my blade
Ashes of my woe
Fell upon me
On and on
And into the fray
My withered armour falls away
The crown placed upon my brow
And rule of the realm draped upon me
Robed in kingly garb, the masses set before me
Their hopes and fears are now my charge
Long ago I took up my blade
Ashes of my woe
Fell upon me
On and on
And into the fray
My withered armour falls away
Overcome
By blood and fire
My father's legacy
I now hold
Long ago I took up my blade
Ashes of my woe
Fell upon me
On and on
And into the fray
My withered armour falls away
Now I stand at the end of my days
Vanquished my foes
And remember the way
