Norther - Darkest Time

Once there was a time, darker than the human mind, the old man told me If there was a light it cried a while before it died, it died away That night he told me of the darkest time With his own eyes he had witnessed this crime Once there was a place before it was a realm of grace, not far from here Ruined, raped and murdered, sunken deep to dark despair Sky covered in glowing clouds Lasting night and winter, fatal atmosphere MISERY IS THERE NO END TO THIS TRAGEDY, HOW MANY TEARS? THIS DARKEST TIME LAUGHS AT DIVINITY THIS DARKEST TIME LAUGHS AT YOUR FEARS Once there was a war of a kind never seen before, poor stupid mankind Brother killing brother rulers crying out for more always more From distant swords lands wet with blood Games of slaughter death the only goal
