about

Inspired by Arnold Böcklin's painting of the same name. The funeral song of a warior-emperor, passing through the veil of death with conquest still in his unbeating heart.

lyrics

I was born in blood and cold
Took the sword and the arrow
Filled graves with crown and bone
Burned the mighty barrow throne

Rode the plains of agony
One hundred thousand men of war
Sail alone to twist and yaw
Reborn to conquer unknown shores

The Isle of the Dead
The Isle of the Dead
The Isle of the Dead
The Isle of the Dead

I was crowned in blood and gold
Ruled the land and the shadow
Cursed the priests of Maagar
Tore down the holy stone

I was burned in robes of blue
Armed with naught but will and mind
Crimson bier to stranger shores
Turn the wheel of fate once more

The Isle of the Dead
The Isle of the Dead
The Isle of the Dead
The Isle of the Dead
