Gabriel Cyphre - Middle Earth Song

War is a tragedy,
it uses man's best to do man's worst
War is brutality,
it's drawing blood for the power thirst

Power wrongly used
Defeats the oppressor as well as the oppressed
Power might be used
But easy to corrupt is the heart of man

So comes snow after fire
and even dragons have their endings
So comes the sun after the night
and even nightmares have their endings

Prepare your hearts for death's cold hand
Better to fight and die, than live for nothing
Prepare your bodies for the earth
May our blades sing always for justice

Dark lords throne
and the fears are never far,
but moonlight drowns out all
but the brightest stars

In the shadow of war
power blinds those who seek it
In the shadow of war
even heroes become evil beasts
