"When Winter Comes" lyrics

"When Winter Comes"

When winter comes
When life is frozen
When the moors they hide away under the snow
Fingers of doom
Will clutch the chosen
All beasts will shiver, from the lion to the crow

When winter comes
When times are starkest
When the wailing of the wolves fades with the sun
The wilds are numb
The days are darkest
The fates of many cease to rest on only one

Walls will not hold the winter
Over and under crawl
Walls will not hold the winter
All in the way will fall

When winter comes
When thrones are idle
When the brave they cower under eyes of blue
The rising roar
The endless cycle
Turns the darkest myths of yesterday to truth

Walls will not hold the winter
Over and under crawl
Walls will not hold the winter
All in the way will fall

Walls will not hold the winter
Over and under crawl
Walls will not hold the winter
All in the way will fall
