Elvenpath - Moria lyrics

No light in the darkness, we've opened the gate No chance to turn back, it's far too late Onward through blackness where eyes cannot see The ancient realm of the dwarves entered we Magic still lives where they carved for the gold Caves long forgotten yet great to behold The silence and dark fills our hearts full of gloom Welcome to the ancient realm of Khazad-Dûm Of these halls the bards still sing Balin, dwarflord, mountain king Once filled with life, now they're all gone Yet the spirits of Moria still live on Moria - with fearful eyes behold its gates Moria - behind the light the dark awaits Moria - where Lugburz prepares for attack Moria - on the bridge there's no turning back In the Chamber of Records we found Balin's tomb The mountain king stood brave until he met his doom Then silence was broken by drums in the deep And evil beyond measure awoke from its sleep Hunted by the demons of fire and pain We fled through the halls that gave darkness its name Until there was no way out and Mithrandir fell Beneath the great mountain just a taste of hell In brightest light the sun burns red We'd leave our dear friend there for dead Escaped from the darkness, our hearts in despair Our hope vanished in the fire demon's lair
