Caladan Brood - Book Of The Fallen lyrics

Still we ride, fight, and die Wayward path far beyond the pale We are lost, marching on Heavy hearts longing for those lands we once called home Emerald hills, sparking seas Fade to distant memory Horizons blaze in foreign land Ochre seas of scorching sand The fires of Y’Ghatan burn in the night The shadows of a fallen god Chains against light For weeks on end we journey on Weary and worn, the glory is gone All that’s left are tired souls Aching limbs and dreams of home The fires of Y’Ghatan burn in the night The shadows of a fallen god Chains against light Marching on as one as the ghosts of brothers sing Deep in the night where their faces haunt our dreams Halfway through the veil we are summoned to Hood’s gate Lands rimed in frost, they will damn us to our fate Push on through the din of the slaughter Flight through this perilous land To where our blades spring forth Soldiers of Empire Malazan We fight for the seat of the highborn Our fates were never our own Weathered skin is battered and broken Bloodstained dawn in a land unknown Stars reign in the sky of the desert Lost in the blistering sands A host now long forgotten Soldiers of Empire Malazan Far away from the hearths of our fathers We’re never returning home Weathered swords are a warrior’s burden Battles fought but our deeds will go untold Still we ride, fight, and die Wayward path far beyond the pale We are lost, marching on Heavy hearts longing for those lands we once called home Dawn has brought its cleansing light So we behold a mournful sight The fading sounds of clashing steel Bodies strewn across the field The fires of Y’Ghatan burn in the night The shadows of a fallen god Chains against light Buried seeds, scattered bones Blazing hearts by steel sent home Mortal screams, names unknown Shattered dreams by steel sent home Strap on your shields and raise your banners Hear the call of raging battle Beneath a hail of burning arrows Push ever forward, never surrender Siege weapons tolling out like thunder Ripping the city walls asunder Columns of flame reach ever skyward Horizons filled with burning pyres
