Fire And Ash 05:35
They came with no warning Dark and raging Their mouths roaring, blazing Burning everything Our men stood against their flames Our men were buried under their flames Time will not heal these scars Or rebuild our homes under the same stars That paled in dragon flames Our hearts will always long for this land That was taken from us by an iron hand Swallowed in dragon flames Flowers burned to ashes Our homes to ashes Our fields to ashes All gone Memories burned to ashes Love to ashes Burned by a horror unknown These memories we keep in our hearts Will carry to the other lands afar And we will never forget Our brave men who fought and fell Without ever saying their last farewell Their memory burned to ash and smoke The end of laughter End of love and end of hope A new dawn rises With an iron fist and iron heart 'They came one night They flew faster than the wind and the sky was painted red As they burned every village, every field, everything on their way The air was filled with screams as the people fled for their lives Taking whatever they could with them' No words are left to tell this tale That forced our people to run away Fields of ash under a fallen snow A dead land where nothing grows (End of love and end of hope) The road is long and leads us where we can build our lives again someday The fields under a fallen snow A dead land where nothing grows (They took our land They took our home) 'And as we turned back to look at our beloved land the one last time All we saw was ash and fire In a place where our homes used to stand And we stood there; silent, heartbroken, with tears in our eyes We turned our backs to our dearest homeland And we begun to wander'

A lost summer's day warmed my heart Until the snow fell down To the fields of forgotten hope And forgotten lust With you I learned how to fly away to set my heart and soul free But with the snow it all did fade and leave me here The wind still carries your name (In the air) A strange song from afar I still hold your hand (Oh my love) In my darkest dream This one memory only to light my way And the road is getting darker I must hide my face from the beasts of night That bite my skin in the dark A love without a name brought me here Without my lust my life revolves no more Without my pain I'm less than I hoped for All that I wished was just to feel loved All that I got was your ghost in my heart See my faith in falling stars The ones that leave no marks

Fëanor 07:52
They called him a king of the Three Stones that held the light of the moon and the sun The evil one played games with his mind But he's heart was true and he broke through We follow the light that lead you here We'll conquer the dark that came too near We'll stand we'll fight forever here by your side We'll brighten the sun, the moon, the stars Even with the cost of our own scars We'll stand and we'll fall forever here by your side Fëanor Born in Valinor In the land of Valar One to lead them all across the sea He grew up to become a king To serve his people And to fight against the dark with the light in his heart The strength in your heart will never fade We'll cherish all words you ever said We stand and we'll fight until death The light of the stars will sing your name Though the light of our trees won't shine again They stand in the dark with your shame Our brave king Fëanor He fell upon a balrog-blade that took his life and set his soul free His kin fought in his name 'til the end Against the beasts of dark in the land of Mithrim Creating the Three Stones Crystal shining The light of Laurelin and Telperion He fought and protected the elven treasure But Melkor got him first and took all the light We follow the light that lead you here We'll conquer the dark that came too near We'll stand we'll fight forever here by your side We'll brighten the sun, the moon, the stars Even with the cost of our own scars We'll stand and we'll fall forever here by your side Fëanor

Come hide under the stars That still whisper your name Through the seas and the skies Far beyond great dragon's eyes The journey awaits for you, for the brave The one who heals all the scars of the world The king will sail across the sea and come to a land where all the miracles await to be born The shadows will reveal all the things you dare not fear But the light of the day won't shine without a fight The Farthest Shore The Farthest Shore Awaits for you, Sparrowhawk The Farthest Shore The Farthest Shore Will be your faith Your road will take you away to the lands of the west Where the drakes rule the earth Where all life is veiled To the lands of the dead Where the hills have no name Where all that is dark awaits to come to life The wind will fill your sails once more And blow your boat to an unknown shore A last thing to do before you can leave this world behind The dawn will bring a new way to live And bring you again back home Fiery wings will carry you there And your name will live forever more

Wake up Can you see the world around you Open your eyes to the miracles we our bound to Will you write this tale Will you follow your way To the fields of life and wonders If you keep your eyes and your heart open wide You will find all that you desire Calm before the eye of a storm That will force us against all that we ignore The wind howling, breaking Crushing shields and armours Men falling like stones to water Sinking down in the great deep black Blood racing in their veins Each one stands alone Facing death like an old friend that has come to take you home All dead but us All gone but us We were born from the same flesh We grew up together and we left the same home we shared through the years of our childhood We became warriors Brave men who killed to live We saw the world, all its' wonders through the same eyes Don't give in My brother, we are one We fought together and we shall die as one Hear these words that'll keep you in life I pray all our gods to spare you from this one They're all dead but us All dead but you my brother All dead but us My brother Eagleheart

He was born when the fall brought down the rain And the clouds were black Thunder raged through the skies And they gave him a name that brought him fame When he grew up and left his home towards the unknown Facing the danger Facing the unknown His heart guided him through it all Towards new lands Towards new seas He found the magic in his soul The words untold He was called the Child of the Storm and through him all the magic was reborn reborn Embracing his shadows and he fought them down Sailing across the waters under the pale stars Healing his wounds Chasing the demons of the mankind Risking his life for all those poor souls Follow your heart Your heart Learning the magic The way to his inner soul He studied hard and found a way of his own Following his teacher, the man who raised him up They held the magic in their hearts no man could undo He was known as the Child of the Storm and through him all the magic was reborn reborn Preparing his boat for the one last time Sailing across the waters under the windy skies Saying his farewell Facing the demons for the one last time He spent all his powers and then he fell down The symbol laid on his forehead as they laid him down Towards the city of the dead And the white flowers filled the air and people stood there Letting their saviour go Change your stars Your stars He ruled the air, the seas, the earth He healed the injured, cleansed the dirt He walked the land of the dead Spoke the words none had ever said

Other Shore 06:41
It was a windy day when I stood by the sea My heart raging black the tears falling on my cheeks And I thought how could my heart beat without you here Only your ghost standing here next to me Holding my hand This death will not pull us two apart I will stand forever here And I will hear you calling my name Kissing my lips I will keep you forever near Two lives became as one And fell apart like trees in a storm I lied when I told you I would be brave and leave our love behind Only memories still keep you here I hold them in my heart and I know I would be brave if I could but my soul is weak and I need you here with me Rain falling cold like ice inside my soul A freezing breeze that shivers all my bones I hold my hands against the wind and I know you stand on the other shore Waiting for me This life is just a sea between us now In time I'll cross it like you somehow I hold your ghost tight though I still know you're still on the other shore Waiting for me And I will hear you calling my name Kissing my lips I will keep you forever near This death will not pull us two apart I will stand forever here And I will hear you calling my name Kissing my lips I will keep you forever near

We wander through the ice and snow And have left our home Far behind Our brave people will follow our king until the end We march towards whatever awaits We will fight to the death to find the light again of the falling stars and the jewels he forged to save the day from the night With our guide we'll find a home With our king we will revenge All the light the One took from us Trees that shine their light no longer All the light of our Valar We carried here from afar To light up distant star A sacred land we left behind for our doom A sacred land we'll never see again, touch the earth again of our precious home that lies afar The Dark One will follow our steps but we're not afraid of his doom 'cause we carry the light of our gods with us And though we know there's no way back our hearts are free with our king Who we'll follow until the end of days 'til the end of our world
