Lyrics Atlantean Kodex

Atlantean Kodex

Marching Homeward

Foreboding mountains, threatening skies

Beyond these walls of stone, our sacred homeland lies

Ten years have passed now, since we left home

The green hills of my country, soon my weary eyes shall see again

From the black mountain a cold wind blows

Standing stones along our path bear marks of ancient runes

Midst howling gales pounding of drums

Whisper turn to battlecries chaos soon will rise

Beneath the black mountain we're lead astray

Never to see our home again

Beneath the black mountain our journey ends

Never to see our home again

Black folk of the mountains, watching our flock

Dark shapes are moving twist trees and barren rock

Green feathered arrows take down the steeds

Thrown into the dust, we will journey to the island of the dead

Blessed be the old gods, sacred warrior hordes

Blue their painted faces, the clash of bronze swords

Dark invocations grant eldritch strength

Bloodshed for the blood god, we are dying in this godforsaken land

Led to black mountains into the caves

Never to see our home again

Living and captive die in decay

Those not sacrificed forever be enslaved

Unspoken terrors lurk in the night

Chaos, doom and sacrifice await

Grotesque idols out of times before the light

Torture, death and slavery our fate

Led to black mountains into the caves

Never to see our home again

Living and captive die in decay

Those not sacrificed forever be enslaved

Beneath the black mountain we're lead astray

Never to see our home again

Beneath the black mountain our journey ends

Never to see our home again
