lyrics

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

End of love
and end of hope

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

A dawn for ash
A dawn for smoke

The road is long and leads us where
we can build our lives again someday
With broken hearts and broken shields
our journey goes on

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
