Lyrics to Heorot [Full Album 2023] by Burden Of Ymir

Tracklist: 01. 00:00 Hwæt 02. 01:34 Recounting On The Seas Enter a beast of pure murder, disrupting the peace of the hall Close the doors, sending across the sea for aid Warriors heeding the call, summoned to distant shore, protecting all Sail the great divide, soon comes the battle, no longer to hide Coursing the sea as we laugh at the past Long is the night while the monster still takes breath Tales keep us warm while exposed to the cold air Soon to arrive and the burden they will share Death lingers on, why are we so cursed? Counting the days until the lifting arrives A band of warriors bring aid to keep us alive Pulling ashore, the young soldiers embark Tension across the land soon to be cloaked by the dark Tales told, all are heroic battles and brawls Seeking the end, rallying heroes to defend the hall Now they march on, traveling forests to greet a king Battle will commence, an uplifting outlook the warriors bring 03. 08:46 The Great Mead Hall Step forth from the woods, the warriors of Geatland Set with a purpose bold, to bring warmth in the cold Blades and shields at hand, to fight at their lord's command Arriving at their destination, approaching the hall Like the great stag it stands proud, the great hall Enter among the thanes, welcomed by Hrothgar and all Light within, once joy in the fog, a peace now disturbed The king calls them forth to hear all that has been learned Gifted with horses adorned in gold The hall is welcoming, a feast is set Mead flows free for early celebration But the wise one cautions it's too early yet 04. 15:12 Revenge Found In The Night The monster is pained by their sound Planning to strike out at all in his path, crushing it all into the ground But new warriors now stand in his way Unknown to the beast blinded by rage Lying in wait, feigning a rest Refusing to wield a weapon, now put to the test Lurking is heard outside the hall then Grendel appears Beowulf leaps to action without sword or spear The battle commences, like titans clashing up high Loyal companions draw their own steel but the beast wouldn't die Skin like a rock, deflecting the blades left and right Though aiding their leader swords would not prevail this night The mightiest warrior grabs onto the monster's arm The creature thought himself impervious to harm Through sheer strength the beast was killed, its whole arm torn away Victory belongs to the warriors this day 05. 20:03 Monsters Of The Lake Mother of the creature lurks, out to seek revenge Slaying a loyal Dane, then escaping to her lair King and the Geats hunt the creature to a lake With new blade in hand, the warrior leaps into the deep At the furthest depths a cave comes into sight But monsters are surrounding, thus begins a furious fight Stabbing with Hrunting, clinging to breath, striving to sink further still Ending the threat, the hero makes his way forward through the depths Approaching the entrance, unsure of what waits within But soon another battle will begin 06. 25:36 The Ninth Hour Approaches Cavern deep in the lake Pulled inside, destiny awaits Combat starts and the creature looks to prevail The gifted sword fails The monster stabs with her sword but finds only armor Biting into defense The hero spots demise on the wall Blade of giants to take the beast's head Further into the cave lies the body of Grendel Decapitate it The blade melts under burning blood Beowulf completes his task Return to the surface, companions rejoice Victory Returning to the great hall with prize in hand King and subjects stand Presenting a head to the king Heorot is now safe, of this the bards shall sing 07. 34:49 Threat Of Fire The warriors return home and in time the hero becomes a king Decades pass and a dragon is burgled Raging like thunder, the dragon burns all around The hero intends to fight, tells his companions to step back Wait for the outcome at the barrow, I go to attack Beowulf, the warrior king, stands alone Climbing down to engage the beast or be dethroned The mighty one is outmatched, his companions fear for their lives But a lone man rushes forth, coming to his aid Together they defeat the dragon but now the king lies dead Beowulf is sent off by his people and many tears were shed 08. 40:14 Mourning Of The Geats
