TRACK LYRICS | THE SHINING COMPANY
Riding through the night, the shining company
Riding ‘Neath the sky, battle hound behind
Come the gathering, drinking horns of mead
The feast of brotherhood, northern high kings
Desolate days, shame and sorrow
Grave sods crumble, for the morrow
A winter wind, foredoomed we ride
Under the dragon, standard high
Into woodland winds, to realms of silent death
Baleful chaos rise, amid enkindled rage
Pallid hue of death, a mirthful end awaits
We go to our end below, the eternal abyss untrod
Shrilling arrows descend
Bestow the mangled dead
War gods guide our souls
Foredoomed we ride ahead
Life is made for sorrow
Leading to the tomb
In wretched war we wallow
To fade into the gloom
Under whispering stars
The shining company
Crimson torrents will flow
Through blood
Ravens soaring above
The shining company
Lightning swift our steeds
