The snow falls silently 'cross the coomb The wind's howl echoing through the crags Alone I watch the season's throes Here at world's end where no life roams
North of sun's light Under a winter's moon In pale white night A blissful solitude
Far away from fear, love, hate Memories too faint to feel pain Alone, I, whisper to the cold Here, at one with soil and stone
[Chorus] These dead mountains I call home To these bleak woods I speak my woes Above barren lands, under godless skies Here I remain until I die
For days immemorial Reflecting on uncounted years Hearing the cries of friend and foe Watching the death of the world below
Shadows taunt my name Oathbreaker, exile, forsaken
Shade no longer my shelter Voices pull me from my slumber
I once looked upon the plains I once spoke the names of the world I once walked without fear I once knew love
Wandering far from here Away from this cursed gloom Returning to distant memories Flames that burn anew
Along frozen lakeshores Across seas of ice Daylight welcomes me home South of winter's bite
[Chorus] These dead mountains I call home To these bleak woods I speak my woes Above barren lands, under godless skies Here I return when I die
