The Serpent and the Shadow
Darkest Era

On the crest of the night

Alone in the silence around me

Where the ravens that roam through the eyes of the storm

Circle above their prey


The beggars that mourn are

Sleeping through breaking of day

Caress every thought with the peace that you bought

Praying in silent scorn


Blood for blood

Soul for soul



The scream of death the pyre burning bright

The serpent and the shadow of the black light


The demons that crawl

The fury of nightmares unknown

From their severed tongues come the words of their songs

Poison the gods of old.

Lyrics by Darkest Era

  An Ancient Fire Burns   Beneath The Frozen Sky   Beyond the Grey Veil   Blood, Sand and Stone   Heathen Burial   Songs of Gods and Men   The Last Caress Of Light Before The Dark   The Morrigan   The Scavenger   To Face The Black Tide   Trapped in the Hourglass   Visions Of The Dawn
