White Mountain - Remastered 2008
Thin hung the web, like a trap in a cage
The fox lay asleep in his lair
Fang's frantic paws told the tale of his sin
Far off the chase shrieked revenge
Outcast, he trespassed where no wolf may tread
The last sacred haunt of the dead
He learnt of the truth which only one wolf may know
The scepter and crown of the king
Howling for blood, One-Eye leads on the pack
Plunging through forests and snow storm
Steep rose the ridge, ghostly peaks climbed the sky
Fang sped through jungles of ice
Hard on his trail, One-Eye drew from the pack
An old hero conquered by none
Steep, far too steep grew the pathway ahead
Descent was the only escape
A wolf never flees in the face of his foe
Fang knew the price he would pay
One-Eye stood before him with the crown upon his head
Scepter raised to deal the deadly blow
Fang, son of Great Fang, the traitor we seek
The laws of the brethren say this
That only the King sees the Crown of the Gods
And he, the usurper must die
Snarling, he tore at the throat of his foe
But Fang fought the hero in vain
Dawn saw the White Mountain tinted with red
Never would the crown leave again
One-Eye hid the crown and with laurels on his head
Returned amongst the tribe and dwelt in peace
The fox lay asleep in his lair
Fang's frantic paws told the tale of his sin
Far off the chase shrieked revenge
Outcast, he trespassed where no wolf may tread
The last sacred haunt of the dead
He learnt of the truth which only one wolf may know
The scepter and crown of the king
Howling for blood, One-Eye leads on the pack
Plunging through forests and snow storm
Steep rose the ridge, ghostly peaks climbed the sky
Fang sped through jungles of ice
Hard on his trail, One-Eye drew from the pack
An old hero conquered by none
Steep, far too steep grew the pathway ahead
Descent was the only escape
A wolf never flees in the face of his foe
Fang knew the price he would pay
One-Eye stood before him with the crown upon his head
Scepter raised to deal the deadly blow
Fang, son of Great Fang, the traitor we seek
The laws of the brethren say this
That only the King sees the Crown of the Gods
And he, the usurper must die
Snarling, he tore at the throat of his foe
But Fang fought the hero in vain
Dawn saw the White Mountain tinted with red
Never would the crown leave again
One-Eye hid the crown and with laurels on his head
Returned amongst the tribe and dwelt in peace
