Grendel

I. Heorot’s plea and Grendel’s awakening

Midnight sun bids moors farewell, retreats from charging duskMountain’s echo, curfews bell, signal ending tasksThey place their faith in oaken doors, cower in candlelightThe panic seeps through bloodstained floors as Grendel stalks the night

Earth rim walker seeks his mealsPrepare the funeral pyresThe Shaper’s songs no longer heal the fearWithin their eyes, their eyes, their eyes, their eyes, their eyes...

Wooden figures, pagan gods, stare blindly cross the seaAppeal for help from ocean fogs, for saviors born of dreamsThey know their lives are forfeit now, priestly heads they bow in shameThey cannot face the trembling crowd that flinch in Grendel’s name

Earth rim walker seeks his mealsPrepare the funeral pyresThe Shaper's songs no longer heal the fearWithin their eyes, their eyes, their eyes, their eyes, their eyes...

As Grendel leaves his mossy home beneath the stagnant mereAlong the forest path he roams to Hrothgar’s hall so clearHe knows that victory is secured, his charm will testifyHis claws will drip with mortal blood as moonbeams haunt the sky

Earth rim walker seeks his mealsPrepare the funeral pyresThe Shaper’s songs no longer heal the fearWithin their eyes, their eyes, their eyes, their eyes, their eyes...

II. Grendel’s Journey

Silken membranes span his path, fingerprints in dewDenizens of twilight lands humbly beg him throughMother nature’s bastard child shunned by leaf and streamAn alien in an alien land seeks solace within dreamsThe shaper’s lies his poisoned tongue malign with mocking harpBeguiling queen her innocence offends his icy heart

III. Lurker at the Threshold

Hounds freeze in silence bewitched by the reptile spellSulphurous essence pervades round the grassy dellHeorot awaits him like lamb to the butcher’s knifeStellular heavens ignore even children's cries

Screams are his music, lightning his guideRaping the darkness, death by his side

Chants rise in terror, free round the oaken beamsFlickering firelight portraying the grisly sceneWarriors advance, prepare for the nightmare foeFutile their sacrifice as even their hearts must know

Heroes delusions, with feet in the graveLurker at the threshold, he cares not for the brave, he cares not for the brave

So you thought that your bolts and your locks would keep me outYou should have known better after all this timeYou’re gonna pay in blood for all your vicious slanderWith your ugly pale skins and your putrid blue eyesWhy should I feel pity when you kill your own and feel no shameGod’s on my side, sure as hell, I’m gonna take no blameI’m gonna take no blame, I’m gonna take no blame

So you say you believe in all of Mother Nature’s lawsYou lust for gold with your sharpened knivesOh when your hoards are gathered and your enemies left to rotYou pray with your bloodstained hands at the feet of your pagan gods

Then you try to place the killer’s blade in my handsYou call for justice and distort the truthWell I’ve had enough of all your pretty, pretty speechesReceive your punishment! Expose your throats to my righteous clawsAnd let the blood flow, and let the blood flow, and let the blood flow.Flow, flow, flow, flow!Let the blood flow, and let the blood flow, and let the blood flow!Flow, flow, flow, flow, now!
