Elivagar – Darkland lyrics

Once upon in Dark Age times
In a land where the sun didn't shine
Two tribes in a long time war
A history of blood and fight

Few streaks of light shone in the dark
The islands of prosperity
The clans fought for their existence
And violence was everywhere

Both sides fought for light
Living means enlighten fields
Dismal times tortured the land
Until a stranger came to them

The merchant came from far away
Shocked by the violence he tried to help
Within two months he had a plan
Polished iron is the way

And the first day came since thousand years ago
The mirrors spead the darkness away
For the first time they saw the morning light
And they saw what they had done

The melted iron got it's form
Together they were working for
United for a better future
A paradise under the sun

After a year the mirrors stood
Reflected light fulfilled the land
And what they saw that wasn't fine
The consequence of war is death.

And they saw the scars in the landscapes
The tribute of war shone in the light

And the first day came since thousand years ago
The mirrors spread the darkness away
For the first time they saw the morning light
And they saw what they had done.

The darkish times ended in history - but the time of rebuild began
