about

The third and final single before the official release of upcoming debut album "Destruction of Ymir" on the 17th of January 2020.

lyrics

Midsummers twilight descends
upon the golden land
Cloaking the soil with burning embers
Merging reality and legend

Silence surrounds the circle of stones
Preserving legends from long ago
Ancient secrets from a kingdom once proud
Lies still within its mystical shroud

The whispers of the fallen echoes through the hills
Their spirits carried by the wind
Shadows cast by age long past
Sombre is the realm of ancient kings

Silence surrounds the circle of stones
Preserving legends from long ago
Soil, the guardian of ash and bones
All that remains is silence
And the shadows... of the stones

Twilight, the bridge between death and life
Ritual sacrifice, temple of the sun, casts
Shadows, upon the lonely graves
Forefathers of a land so great, their spirits still roam
For all eternity
