"Fimbulvinter" lyrics

Deep are the fears, and loud are the cries
Dark is the night that is taking our lives
Dense are the ashes that fall on the snow
And heavy the metal surrounding my soul

Three years of death, shrouded in ice
Darkness is all that is left in our eyes
In the hour of the wolf
The bitter taste of your demise

Mighty winter, tearing through flesh
Mighty winter, the final rest
Powerless the gods will fear
The night has come, the end is near

Dawn of death
Silent as snow we are falling now
Failing and distant, the rays of the sun
Its glory forgotten
Hunger in the dark
The light betrays
Failing and distant, the rays of the sun
The end has begun

Storm without mercy, like iron the frost
Neighbours will turn over all that's been lost
Kinship is traded for fear and distrust
As brothers and sisters grow cold and unjust

Reaving hunger, ruthless cold
Sign of the prophecy, stories of old
Frozen calm before the storm
The night has come, the end is born

Mighty winter, tearing through flesh
Mighty winter, the final rest
Powerless the gods will fear
The night has come, the end is near

Dawn of death
Silent as snow we are falling now
Failing and distant, the rays of the sun
Its glory forgotten
Hunger in the dark
The light betrays
Failing and distant, the rays of the sun
The end has begun

As I wandered around in the ruins of my paradise
I realized that the gods were all gone
There was no hope, in this aftermath of winter's wrath
And I realized, the end, my friend, is nigh

Dawn of death
Silent as snow we are falling now
Failing and distant, the rays of the sun
Its glory forgotten
Hunger in the dark
The light betrays
Failing and distant, the rays of the sun
The end has begun
