hail to the victor

Singer:ensiferum

scarless man

mangled soul of a solitary

some fights that are fought in the mind

are not imaginary

blazing eyes

although the road has been long

all chains

ignorance and hate

no more

time is the dividend on ephemeral paths

longing of the fulfillment is carved in wolven hearts

time is the dividend on ephemeral paths

longing of the fulfillment is carved in wolven hearts

these times

these lives

in the hands of beasts of lies

man made gods

turning tides

unknown future

no hope in sight

foul beings

the ultimate sin

like fools

they charge to kill their kin

the legend tells

in the hearts of men

is the way

the power

to rise above this hell

hail to the victor!

once a castaway

hail to the victor!

but never astray

hail to the victor!

in the mirror we'll see the face

hail to the victor!

of the only god whom should be praised

time is the dividend on ephemeral paths

longing of the fulfillment is carved in wolven hearts

time is the dividend on ephemeral paths

all those

in the end

will merge in to one
