Altars On Fire
From the land of the storm they departed
And the wind of the plague they became
When they sent off the shore
Turned to red by the blood of the fallen
On the force of the wild we are facing
Lindisfarne was taken by fate
Not our god nor a prayer could help
But our trust as we call our saints
With no mercy, they plundered and slaved
Tainted the crown of the holy isle
Burnt the abbey to ruins
Can't give up, stick tonight, altars on fire
Can't deny, living together the weapon tonight
Can't give up, come to life, altars on fire
Can't defy here up tonight
To defend what was holy and sacred
We stood up by our weakness and fear
All aware to be slaughtered and torn by the wild
By their sword and spear
By the dawn, all the fewer survivors
They were taken as slaves under will
And the altar was burned and despised by the horde
As the godless killed
They brought agony, thunder and hate
Unsainted the halls of the sacred child
Burnt the altar to ruins
Can't give up, stick tonight, altars on fire
Can't deny, living together the weapon tonight
Can't give up, come to life, altars on fire
Can't defy up tonight, forever and never to fight
Stand up and pray the night we rise
Can't give up, stick tonight, altars on fire
Can't deny the weapon tonight
Can't give up, come alive, altars on fire
Can't defy up, forever and never to fight
Stand up and pray the night we rise
And the wind of the plague they became
When they sent off the shore
Turned to red by the blood of the fallen
On the force of the wild we are facing
Lindisfarne was taken by fate
Not our god nor a prayer could help
But our trust as we call our saints
With no mercy, they plundered and slaved
Tainted the crown of the holy isle
Burnt the abbey to ruins
Can't give up, stick tonight, altars on fire
Can't deny, living together the weapon tonight
Can't give up, come to life, altars on fire
Can't defy here up tonight
To defend what was holy and sacred
We stood up by our weakness and fear
All aware to be slaughtered and torn by the wild
By their sword and spear
By the dawn, all the fewer survivors
They were taken as slaves under will
And the altar was burned and despised by the horde
As the godless killed
They brought agony, thunder and hate
Unsainted the halls of the sacred child
Burnt the altar to ruins
Can't give up, stick tonight, altars on fire
Can't deny, living together the weapon tonight
Can't give up, come to life, altars on fire
Can't defy up tonight, forever and never to fight
Stand up and pray the night we rise
Can't give up, stick tonight, altars on fire
Can't deny the weapon tonight
Can't give up, come alive, altars on fire
Can't defy up, forever and never to fight
Stand up and pray the night we rise
