Where the screams of the dying dead
Echoed in the mists of despair
We needed a hero to guide us beyond
But when he came along, he didn’t
Want to be the one who sacrificed all
For people he had never met
And from there we fell into darkness
Have you seen their haunted eyes?
These hollow shells of an ancient race
Our nightmares, how they shriek in triumph
Where was our savior when we needed him most?
He was losing what he loved most
To a monster from the depths of hell
Our once beautiful lands were gone
Shredded into strips of a barren wasteland
The air we breathed was such poison
And as we lost our final hope he emerged
Bloodied, lost, and with ice in his veins
I can still hear his cry of rage in the sky
It shattered the very fabric of our souls
And when he stepped from the shadows victorious
We wept at the loss we saw there
In the end it was so different from the beginning
Gone was our innocence we had clung to
We were free but bound by our grief
Our world had been wrought in fire
But it had been won by the destruction of ice
