Dance of the Axes

Down, down, down where the sunlight will drown
And the runes are burning on the frozen crown
Down, so down in the heart of the stone
Is reliving a King sitting on the throne

Deep, deep, deep where the spirits reside
They forever are bound to the dwarven mine
Deep, so deep where the torches dim
They rejoin in the battle with a glorious hymn

We stand together, and raise the banners
We brace for battle with the dance of the axes!
It's now or never, we'll fight forever
And join together in the dance of the axes!

Far, far, far, way beyond in the dark
All the shades of the past showing off their mark
Far, so far from the surface revealed
They'll be dancing forever in black concealed

Long, long, long is the time they will wait
From the dawn of the eras to their journey made
Long, so long since they were all gone
And again like brothers they will be reborn

We stand together, and raise the banners
We brace for battle with the dance of the axes!
It's now or never, we'll fight forever
And join together in the dance of the axes!

When shadows fall
Together in the twilight we heed the call
The darkness shall not drive us away
When shadows fall
Together in the twilight we'll fight once more
The flame of war will show us the way forevermore!

Rise, rise, rise, from the ashes of old
In the glow of the flame where the story's told
Rise, so rise, like the winter awakes
With the voice of the heroes all the mountain shakes

Sing, sing, sing, in the mist of time
From a tale to a legend and again to rhymes
Sing, so sing, with this old magic song
All the spirits are coming from where they belong

In the dance of the axes!
In the dance of the axes!
In the dance of the axes!
In the dance of the axes!

When shadows fall
Together in the twilight we heed the call
The darkness shall not drive us away
When shadows fall
Together in the twilight we'll fight once more
The flame of war will show us the way forevermore!

And we're fighting forevermore

Long was the time before this moment arrived

Long was the time before this moment arrived
As we were looking far away, far was the day
When, reunited, again we'd fight once more

When shadows fall
Together in the twilight we heed the call
The darkness shall not drive us away
When shadows fall
Together in the twilight we'll fight once more
The flame of war will show us the way forevermore!
