lyrics

Marked by the cross,
Old memory reappears
Then lignes are becoming blurred
Trapped between hope and hate

I asked Gods forever
They never answered and left me alone
Facing my fate
With the hope of finding answers

Fallen Ice, chained up to torments
Fallen Ice, slowed by this frozen wind
Fallen Ice, transcending that barrier
By shattering this ice,
I get a glimpse of light once again

I tried in vain to take revenge on the man with the fair hair,
Northen winds led me to Merovee's land
That i've crossed in ancient times
Far from those heathen
Far from their icons

Chorus

While Harald subjugated one by one the north kingdoms
I led my innermost revenge on this host country
Which was once more defiled

Leaving behind me
A torrent of blood
My new master realised
My real worth
Raised me by the strength of the blade
I served him under the mark of justice

At this moment, I heard the death knell
Rang for my former brother-in-arms

God had heard my prayers,
And had opened the possibility for me
To accomplish my revenge
Blinded by greed
And prom pted by their cowardice
Betrayers who dragged me down
In my abysmal fall
Were going to desecrate a sanctuary of the
Almighty

Chorus

Facing those scums the
Taste of blood got
Mixed with rage

My sword and my spirit became one
Left an amount
Of rotting corpses
Of those ungrateful
The ones with whom i've grown up
The ones with whom I Shared everything

Lifting up their Heads,
I looked at their faces
I saw in their eyes
I was once again alone
But with a road
Paved with hope
That this God
Will bring to me
