Next album... Wyrd

Well I went to SD for the weekend, tis why I couldn't post yesterday.
One big thing that happened during Wyrd was that Elvenking lost their main vocalist, Damnagoras, due to many reasons the vocalist had lost his interest in the band and he preferred to concentrate on his temporary health problems leaving Elvenking permanently. In any case, the singer for this album, Kleid, has decent similarities to Damnagoras and knows how to sing.

Band: Elvenking
Song: Disappearing Sands
Album: Wyrd


At dawn the ships arrived, they sailed
through seas and foreign skies
To bring another age in lands
that needed no constraints
By the sign of the fire,
all pagan gods were bleeding
To dispossess thousands years
of wisdom and beliefs, oh

Think for a moment, fall astray
First step on sand, meant the last
of their old life
(now it's done, all is gone), so pure,
With dignity all was carried on
What's this fighting for?

Disappearing sands, familiar voices
Every time I stare at the night inside us
All the places I cherish darken
Past memories are the only
true consolation
For what my eyes are forced to see

The tears in her eyes were like rain
come from the gloomiest cloud
Pushed back from their own homes,
the germ of hate seized the heart
In a clear warm spring day,
his spirit left the body
Alone she stood while the ravens
flew away from ruins, oh

Far till sky unites with earth I'll hide you
They cannot dig what's inside of us
Far till sky unites with earth I'll hide you
They cannot dig what's inside of us

My life for you, despair on us,
despair on us

Think for a moment, fall astray
First step on sand, meant the last
of their old life
(now it's done, all is gone), so pure,
With dignity all was carried on
What's this fighting for?

Disappearing sands, familiar voices
Every time I stare at the night inside us
All the places I cherish darken
Past memories are the only
true consolation
For what my eyes are forced to see
