Eaters Of The Dead
Album: Endless Conflict Theorem (2002)
[music: wells lyrics: based on beowulf]
the midnight sun above the ruins
darkness drapes the land
a peaceful scene in the dark of night
the carnival of souls
far away lands of kings and queens
in peril they now are
a messenger sent to seek the brave
to free the land enslaved...
a violent creature in the mountain dwells
and preys on the child of man
the eaters of the dead they are
a dread from ancient times
fear the dark and the mist it brings
from the hillsides roars are heard
a battle rages to slay the beats
a fight to free the land
on nightfall of the 7th day
battle cries were heard
broken bodies the price they pay
for a battle fought and won
a broken beast lies conquered now
as a land is freed at last
a tyrant's rule now torn apart
as the grendel's body breaks
