Amon Amarth - Coming of the Tide Lyrics

Racing 'cross the arctic lands
A mounted legion under my command
We're a brutal force no men can withstand
Total havoc is at hand

See the black crows circle high
Waiting for brave men to die
They sense the coming of the tide
When opposition's swept aside

The fateful message reached us months ago
That our home was under siege
And since that day we've been heading north
Our kinsmen needed our relief

As we near our fortress walls
Black smoke is rising to the sky
Burnt black ruins of our father's halls
And corpses greet our tired eyes

What madness led them to attack
Victory could not be won
They must've known there was no turning back
And now they all are gone
No woman, child or man was spared
Their bodies lying where they fell
Suffering, anguish and despair
As they went through living hell

So now we're on the ride again
And vengeance is our new found path
We draw our strength from grief and pain
These bastards shall know our endless wrath

See the black crows circle high
Waiting for brave men to die
They sense the coming of the tide
When opposition's swept aside
