Verse 1]
From the land of the storm they departed
And the wind of the plague they became
When they sent off the shore
Turned to red by the blood of the fallen
[Verse 2]
On the force of the wild we are facing
In the son was mistaken by fate
Not a god nor a prayer could help
But our trust as we call our saints
[Pre-Chorus]
Without mercy they plundered and slaved
Tainted the crown of the holy isle
But turned it to ruins
[Chorus]
Can't give up
Stick tonight
Altars on fire
Can't deny
Living together the weapon tonight
Can't give up
Come to life
Altars on fire
Can't defy up tonight
Forever and ever to fight
[Verse 3]
To defend what was holy and sacred
We stood up by our weakness and fear
All aware to be slaughtered and torn
By the wild by the sudden spear
[Verse 4]
By the dawn hold the fewer survivors
Never taken as slaves under will
And the altar was burned and the spires
By the horn as the godless kill
[Pre-Chorus]
And by the thunder they came
Sancted the hearts of the sacred child
Burnt the altar to ruins
[Chorus]
Can't give up
Stick tonight
Altars on fire
Can't deny
Living together the weapon tonight
Can't give up
Come to life
Altars on fire
Can't defy up tonight
Forever and ever to fight
Stand up and pray the night we rise
[Outro]
Can't give up
Stick tonight
Altars on fire
Can't deny the weapon tonight
Can't give up
Come alive, altars on fire
Can't defy up tonight
Forever and ever to fight
Lyrics
The first is what Attila sings... the second one is what is written in the official lyrics in the cd book:
*First:
From the land of the storm they departed
and the wind of the plague they became
When the sand of the shore turned to red
by the blood of the fallen
All the force of the wild we are facing
Lindsfarne was taken by fate
not our god nor a prayer could help
but our trust as we call the saints
With no mercy they plundered and slayed
Tainted the ground of the holy isle
Burnt the abbey to ruins
Can’t give up
Stand tonight
Altars on fire
Can’t deny
Get up together to weather the night
Can’t give up
Came to life
Altars on fire
Can’t defy Get up tonight
To defend what was holy and sacred
we stood up by our weakness and fear
all aware to be slaughtered and torn by the wild,
by their sword and spear
By the dawn all the few of survivors
they were taken as slaves under will
and the altars was burnt and despised
by the horde, as the godless killed
They broungt agony, thunder and hate
unstained the halls of the sacred child
burnt the altar to ruins
Can’t give up
Stand tonight Altars on fire
Can’t deny
Get up together to weather the night
Can’t give up
Came to life
Altars on fire
Can’t defy
Born to forever or never to fight
Stand up and prey the night will rise
*Second:
From the land of the storm they departed
and the wind of the plague they became
When the sand of the shore turned to red
by the blood of the fallen
All the force of the wild we are facing
Lindsfarne was taken by fate
not our god nor a prayer could help
but our trust as we call the saints
With no mercy they plundered and slayed
Tainted the ground of the holy isle
Burnt the abbey to ruins
Can’t give up
Stand tonight
Altars on fire
Can’t deny
Get up together to weather the night
Can’t give up
Came to life
Friars to frontlines
Can’t defy
Born to forever or never to fight
Stand up and prey the night will rise
To defend what was holy and sacred
we stood up by our weakness and fear
all aware to be slaughtered and torn
by the wild, by their sword and spear
By the dawn all the few of survivors
they were taken as slaves under will
and the altars was burnt and despised
by the horde, as the godless killed
They broungt agony, thunder and hate
unstained the halls of the sacred child
burnt the altar to embers
Can’t give up
Stand tonight
Altars on fire
Can’t deny
Get up together to weather the night
Can’t give up
Came to life Friars to frontlines
Can’t defy
Born to forever or never to fight
Stand up and prey the night will rise
