11. Noldor (Dead Winter Reigns)

Noldor

Blood is on your hands

Your bane's

A tearful destiny

Black clouds will carry

Rain of blood

I've seen it rain

We were lost

On grinding ice

In fear and hunger

Dead winter reigned

In Araman

Prebridge:

(You) can't escape

From my damnation

(Nor) run away

From isolation

Bridge:

Guilty spoke the one

This deed can't be undone

Hear my words

Fear my curse

Chorus:

I know where the stars glow

(And the) sky's unclouded

Sweet the water runs my friend

(But) Noldor

Blood is on your hands

Tears unnumbered

You will shet and dwell in pain

Your homeless souls

Shall come to me

There's no release

Slain you might be

Slain you will be

Slain you will be

And the lost

Who will not reach the

House of spirits

(Will) grow old and weary

Prebridge

Bridge

Chorus

I've seen this bitter end

As I've foreseen

The storm and ice

And I could see it

(How) a million died

And I?

The blame's on me

Cause I was not there

Prebridge

Bridge

Chorus

Dead winter reigns

And tomorrow's still unknown

Lies

Condemned and betrayed

Now everything is said

See my eyes

Are full of tears

And a cruel price

We've paid

But still I can't claim

That I'm innocent

Lost
