Raven And Blood (1999 Version) Lyrics - Burning The Shroud - Aeternus

high fathers - teaching 

knowledge - increasing 

wandering through lands 

listening - mysterious folk lore 

enchantment - through books 

desire - to learn the truth 

to seek the raven - and the blood 

travelling for many days 

i find the place - where the elves hide 

i must seek their knowledge 

elves of wisdom - knowledge of mystery 

faith growing - deeply 

raven and blood - await me 

time goes on - i have no longer guidance 

have i failed - is this folk lore 

confusion within my mind 

i look up - and in the tree i see 

the raven 

and i see the land - covered with blood 

raven and blood - they came to me 

finally - the eternity 

[spoken] 

...and the raven became my king 

...and the blood embraced me 

...and entered my veins 

...and provided me with the strength of 

ares 

the god war
