lyrics

Dark have been my dreams of late, thick with fear and doubt
Shadows lengthen in the east and the south
I hear the warhorns calling, see red serpents on black sails
The fires of Halifirien burn, Gondor calls for aid

Doom comes at day break (My lord, it's Théodred)
May the Fords run red (and the Fords ran red)
One grim morning, one more mound, one last host, oathbound
In three days time from Dunharrow, a winged shadow, a Red Arrow
Got youth to waste, with hope or without, got fuel to burn, got roads to ride

Alas these evil days
Alas such wicked ways
Alas these dying rays
All the world set ablaze

(Where now the horse and the rider?
Where is the horn that was blowing?
Where is the helm and the hauberk?
And the bright hair flowing?)

In the second between the saddle and the ground, I am overcome with peace
Assailing the siege of the Tower of Guard has avenged my line
The blade foretold, kin-wielded, strikes between crown and mantle
The shadow rolls away and I know no more

At last a new day (Lay me down to die)
At last to rest (Under silver fields of Evermind)
At last the Doorway (Without bit or bridle)
Another world awaits (The night sky's Starry Rider)
