lyrics

far beyond lost wood
over ancient mountain
enshrouded by ice
the lost temple
of forgotten gods
power of old
now reborn

place of power
carved runes
symbols of dread
to summon the sleeper
banished long ago
to eternal slumber
ritual now awakened
hooded, cloaked, and secret
disciples of the dark
gathered in the shadows

surrounding dark altar
the ritual begins

brought forth from
the ancient prison
breaking, magical chains
portal opened
at ancient temple
barrier, crossed between worlds

fury brought forth from
the deep

bow down to his glory

now brought forth
he brings his doom

deep in lost wood
beyond ancient mountain
a demon of ice
brought forth again
the bane of man
to ravage existence

sleeper now awakened
destroyer of ancient gods
cultists exalt their lord
bowing to his majesty
powered through old runes
hooded heads lowered in praise
temple defiled
ice cloaked shrine now serving the dark

long ago he ravaged this land
slaughtered the gods
hills frozen with blood

great northern realm
now his again
sleeping for ages
now awake once more
all bow to his fury

slayer of old
summoned again
his frozen realm reclaimed
feared by the ancients
banished from their time
now reborn again
