When the Ravens Come

Cold is the wind Dark is the night Ravens are circling Black

in their flight

Iron and leather Blood on the shield Drums roll like thunder Over

the field

Hear our steps Feel the ground Hear the thunder Gathering now To

your walls To your gates Raise your swords And meet your fate

We are coming

Hear the war drums sound

We are coming

Feel them shake the ground

Raise your banners Bar the gates Call your soldiers Let them wait

Through the fire Through the rain Still we’re coming All the same

There stand your towers High on the hill

We see your watchmen Watching us still Smoke from your torches Burns

through the night We sharpen our steel And wait for first light

No road behind us

No turning home

We crossed the black water For blood and for stone

Hear our steps Feel the ground Hear the thunder Gathering now To

your walls To your gates Raise your swords And meet your fate

We are coming

Hear the war drums sound

We are coming

Feel them shake the ground

Raise your banners Bar the gates Call your soldiers Let them wait

Through the fire Through the rain Still we’re coming All the same

Beat the drum

Once for the living Beat the drum Twice for the dead Raise

the shields Stand as one

Sound the horns Here we come

Can you hear us?

Can you see us?

Can you feel the earth below?

Open your gates

Draw your steel

There is nowhere left to go

We have come now

Hear the war drums sound

We have come now

Feel them shake the ground

Raise your banners Break the gates Call your soldiers It's too late

Through the fire Through the rain Still we’re coming All the same

Shield to shield Side by side Shield to shield

Hold the line
