Crown and Kingdom to Ash Lyrics

Rising forth, pitch becloaked, and in the still of night

My kingdom is the bane of the Arnorian kin

Seizing with an iron fist, face the Nazgul's might

For Amon Sûl shall fall and Arveleg shall follow

In Rhudaur, a fallen king, but still the palantír

Is taken to Fornost borne by the last of their sons

Now these walls so besieged will take their final spears

As Fornost whose allies are sundered to Gondor's aid

Setting sights on Arthedain, unseat the kingdom's throne

Muster battalions of orcs, in Sauron's name shall we fight

All shall fall to my black mace, interred in shattered stone

So lie the hopes of the north, crushed by the might of Angmar

This castle will rise over the wastes and the graves

Evil abounds til boats from Gondor arrive

And Prince Eärnur captains the charge of the knaves

Still taken aback, flanked by the boy's cavalry

So my troops laid to waste, facing with Eärnur

To challenge to mortal duel, still but a petulant child

And his horse flees the field before my hellish power

No man can end my life, roaring with mirth, I retreat

Dormant lies in Mordor's keep, and Gondor feels at peace

The Prince becomes their King, but word comes from Minas Morgul

Can you feel the disgrace, the sting of thy defeat?

Enter the dead city's gates, cast crown and kingdom to ash
