Vreid Wild North West 1. Wild North West The forest quiet Yet so alive Everlasting mountains Rivers of life Shadows from the spruces Cast over the farm Its natural beauty Guarded by darkness arms Slow and silent time marches on Deep into the wild north west There is a real world Then there is mine The wild north west untamed In these steep hills The bells of history tolls My red-blooded youthful spirit Urge to serve, fight and explore Slow and silent time marches on Deep into the wild north west There is a real world Then there is mine The wild north west untamed A journey without an end Chapters untold Driven by my ancestors Bloodlines in my soul Slow and silent time marches on Deep into the wild north west From these shores I travel to explore To seek what can be mine A kingdom left behind 2. Wolves at Sea The coastline is fading I drift to the open sea A universe endless A young soldier’s destiny Sirens rush the blood Blitzkrieg attack The fire from below Rolling waves of black Haunted by the wolves at sea Sailing under united flag A brotherhood of men A convey under the stars The black horizon Where sea and skyline blend Camouflaged by the dark of night The wolves sneak up out of sight These blindfolded endless games Bring thousands to nameless ocean graves Sirens rush the blood Blitzkrieg attack The fire from below Rolling waves of black Haunted by the wolves at sea Circles of oil Desperate screams Drawn into to the eternal ocean Comrades disappear My last image as I drift under sea The shadows of my destroyer over me 3. The Morning Red The morning red Colours the sea The morning red Shine behind black trees The morning red Breaks the dawn Night chased through death The morning red is calm The morning red Set fire to the skies The morning red Bring life back to my eyes The morning red Night-time dies Cold hands embrace me Dreamlike ghost comes alive A majestic sight of hope The castle in white Surrounded by the calm nature A primordial power beyond divine My pulse becomes at one with the mountains As I enter this runic rhyme All worries are gone The air stands still So does time 4. Shadows of Aurora Northern darkness lit on fire The magic night-sky dance A theatre of occult nature I swirl in a devilish green trance Under this mystic moon These walls drag me in Under the Shadows of Aurora Arcane lunacy begins Is this a safe haven Where nightmares fall to sleep Or is this a living hell Where demons reappear Under this mystic moon These walls drag me in Under the Shadows of Aurora Arcane lunacy begins Fighting the lightening I ride with fire Fight my way through my darkest hour The shadows in human form Arise from beneath Hell awaits Just leave me alone The walls are closing in Where have I gone Here I find no salvation This is the birth of my torment Behind closed doors 5. Spikes of God Strapped to a bed All freedom gone This horrid chamber Torture of my soul Trembling with fear I choke on my screams Eyes erupting of anxiety A nightmare beyond the sickest dreams The spikes of God No mercy in your eyes Pale faced anxiety Leave this world behind The spikes of God Fear, angst, pain and tears The gateways to my soul To see the darkness in light A new dimension unfolds The spikes of God No mercy in your eyes Pale faced anxiety Leave this world behind The spikes of God This figure with cold hands And evil lurking smile Brings overwhelming chill done my spines Electroshock is not enough The ice pick penetrates my mind The spikes of God 6. Dazed and Reduced The sound of emptiness With echo’s ringing in my head Lifeless dreams A living dead Through the broken windows I see trees move outside But I can’t hear the wind I am dead inside Dazed and reduced Alone and confused I scream but no one replies I see only the ghosts of my life Dazed and reduced Lonely and confused There is no anchor to my soul No harbour where I can stay I am back at the endless ocean Drifting further by each day No more dreams to chase It’s all been taken away If I were a man of faith I would kneel down and pray But I am a primal spirit Letting my instincts lead the way All the way 7. Into the Mountains Into the mountains I run but I cannot see The Shadows are haunting me The trees whisper But I can’t hear what they say The shadows are circling me like a pray Northbound I drift My compass is home The forest is alive and watching me Its trails lead to my destiny Into the mountains A silence overwhelming I can sense the wind of death in my neck The face of landscapes erased Millions of souls sing in the trees The voices of my ancestors Chanting in my head Northbound I drift My compass is home The forest is alive and watching me Its trails lead to my destiny Into the mountains The path was open But the Forest locked me in The only way out Is the rivers stream From these haunted mountains No man can descend Cold silence enfolds me At the journeys end 8. Shadowland Trees that have sheltered Now cut to the ground They no longer whisper As they are dragged Over ancestors’ burial mound Split and planed Their beauty revealed The nails bind the wood A coffin complete A casket for the body A journey for the soul In these landscapes of death The return to home Light and shadows Move side by side A life without shadows Is a lifeless ride All colours faded A Kingdome in decay The loved ones long gone Their spirits chased away The stars shine silent The eagle circling prays As pale as winter Night has become day The path has led way Home to the ground Echoes of animals screams Natures mourning sound The mountains grey of sorrow The river runs dry The shadows come full circle Death embraced life
