HULDRA LYRICS

1. Monuments

They call me a man 
A monument 
A dreamer 

An embodiment 
Of hope for those 
Who seek light 
When misery consumes 
The radiance of this world 
Countenance contends mass exodus 

Blot out the rays from the stars 
A beacon shines out shimmering brilliance 
A pillar of light to 

Guide the lost 
Back home 
Drive the sick 
Into healing arms 
Bring the weary 
Back from the brink

2. Twisted Tongues And Gnarled Roots

Luminescent orbs had kept us 
On course but 
Gnarled roots then lead us astray 

Their wisdom filled us with 
The strength to carry on 

But twisted tongues spat 
Poisonous words and the poison 

Took kindly to our veins 
A plague upon us all 

Standing on the shoulders of titans 
Lofty perch bears witness to travesty 
Stoney eyes gaze on 
Shadows encroach by the second 

Casting a dim light upon us 
Quickly fading wavering and weak 
Lay your weary head upon my hands 

This sickness stakes its claims 
On the lives of lesser men 
O dwindling light resurge 

Tired limbs begin to wither and 
Begin to quiver under the weight of 
The push and pull and sway of the storm 

Corrupted words had gotten the best of her 
Betrayal committed amongst the roots and leaves 
Once viewed as a savior, this man is but a ruse 
Leaving behind too many traces of his infidelity

3. Noctua

[Instrumental]

4. Ursidae

They weighed our hearts on sin alone 
A transformation that can never be undone 
Their soles will never again grace the waves 
The punishment borne by Callisto and her cub 

You took 
The light from the stars 
And soon 
The sun will follow 

Water would douse the fire 
In their hearts 
But the first fire is 
Flickering 
Tendrils of light from the 
Sky reach down 
Water to drown out the 
Hope they had 
Clouds swept in to make the 
Light recede 
Hurried off and kept at bay 
Scorned and betrayed by those in who 
They placed their trust 
A trust misplaced 
Amber eyes and claws 
Then the hunter 
Pierced a poison arrow 
Through the coat of fur and flesh 
They were scorned and left on their own 

Temet nosce, ursidae

5. Thousands Of Eyes

Be 
Wary of those 
That watch with malevolent 
Eyes 
Your every move 
Locked in 
Their 
Sights 
Their gaze at your 
Back 
Is 
Never-ending 

Do you feel it 
They are watching 
Do you feel it 
They are watching 

Do 
You sense that they 
Are upon us 
They are all-seeing 
They are plotting 

Do you feel it 
They are watching 
Do you feel it 
They are here with us now 

A figure stands 
Tall above 
The grain waves 
Piercing rays from 

Sun reach surface 
Rips hope 
From flesh 
And last lingerings of love 
From your bleak and empty heart 

We shield our eyes 
That we might see 
No features form 
Only broken limbs and blood 

Our 
Actions 
Beneath the 
Weight of idle hands 
Heavy like stones 
Immovable and dense 
Unable to escape 
Thousands of eyes are observing 

Do you feel it 
They are here with us now

6. Damnatio Ad Bestias

[Instrumental]

7. As Above, So Below

The dreamer closes it's eyes, it's mind 
The void consumes the stars 
Our monuments, and earth crumble 
And turn to dust 
As above, so below 
I am the dreamer 
I am the dream

8. Is This The End? This Is The End

Alone and adrift in the sea of stars 

Outcast and forgotten by all 
Nothing more than a distant memory 
This nameless wanderer lashes out 
In a desperate attempt to be remembered 

As he descends, fire rains down 
Darkness consumes, a cry rings out, 

"Is this the end? This is the end..."

9. Monoliths

The monolith rises 
Stretches far and wide into the sky 
Connecting the earth with the clouds 
Unifying stone mass extends into the expanse

10. Auctoritas Non Veritas Facit Legem

[Instrumental]

11. The City In The Sky

The city in the sky 
Is buried beneath a fog 
If we could pierce a light 
Through the clouds we would see 
Its citizens weep 
But as time wanes 
Everything is lost 
Within the wispy clutches 
And subtle sullied breaths 
Of the world above 

The city in the sky is left to 
Degenerate decay divide 
A plague of gods and men 
Submit surrender succumb 
Stars become a testament to their collapse 
Accept acquiesce allow 

Wraiths will writhe in the sky 
As times of yore are written 
Accented by gaseous light-bearing orbs 
In the city in the sky
