LYRICS

All hail the crownless kings
Redemption in the suffering
Fighting for my life
Darkest hour, overpower
I am free
Forged in the fire, I am remade
The sun goes down
Not who I was, but what I’ve become
Now I’m breathing, bleeding
caught in the storm
Fighting, feeling
I am reborn
Stay low, look high
I see the eye
Feel, breathe, fight, bleed
I am reborn
The roads go ever on
over rock and under tree
by caves where never sun has shone
by streams that never find the sea
Snow by winter sown
through flowers of June
over grass and over stone
under mountains in the moon
The roads go ever on
under cloud and under star
Yet feet that wandering have gone
turn at last to home afar
My eyes and sword have seen
terror in the halls of stone
Looking on the meadows green
the hills they long have known
Though here at journey's end I lie
in darkness buried deep
Beyond all towers strong and high
beyond all mountains steep
Above all shadows rides the sun
and stars forever dwell
I won’t say the day is done
nor bid the stars farewell

[BoketoMedia]

You guys can all read Sindarin, right?

[SkullObsessed]

You guys seriously did a whole lyric video in elvish? ... Is this even real life right now?

[virgilvalentine]

I can do this for karaoke because I can read spaghetti middle earth font.

[chloeb]

Next step now: singing this song in Sindarin.

[david]

This song is comprised of actual lines from the Hobbit and the Lotr book series. Good stuff my dudes.

[lizzyr.]

the title is enough to make me cry like a baby i loved that scene so much

[quintonis]

After listening to that Bring Me The Horizon album yesterday, its good to hear something with some screams.

[NoOne-qonb]

It's been a year, you can stop bowing to me.

[heavymetalmusichead]

"Beyond all towers strong and high,
Beyond all mountains steep
Above all shadows rides the sun
And stars forever dwell.
I won't say the day is done
nor bid the stars farewell."

This for me is the crux the pinnacle of the LOTR story... no matter how deep the darkness, it is a fleeting folly when compared to the goodness and glory that dwells above.

[baloneysoprano]

I'm gonna be upset if this band doesnt blow up, like for real i cant stress how much potential this band has

[davidsmith]

Just when I thought this band couldn't get any cooler, I find that they made a song based on LoTR...with TWO of Tolkien's poems put to metal...


AND THE LYRICS IN FREAKING ELVISH SCRIPT WHAT😱

As a both a fantasy nerd and a fan of hard rock, this is simply too epic😂

[TeraBrite]

Always love hearing a new song from you guys. Keep em coming!

[ghitantan]

My favorite out of the new album...let's

[eniplanimes]

That part when the music stops and the melody starts, and after it comes back, i instantly had a deja vu of chelsea smile

[Simrasil_]

this is super dope!
I have to say I stil kinda miss your comedic stuff on here.. but you're doing what you love and that is 100 times more important so keep rocking \m/

[mikegruits]

Her screams. My goodness. What a freaking voice. Absolutely incredible song.

[MirorRflction]

Ultimate Nerd Punk/Metal flex to have your lyric video entirely in Sindarin, love it! :D

[brianandrews]

I'm a year late to the party but discovering a sick metal band led by downright mind-blowing female vocals could only possibly have been topped by discovering that they too are Tolkien lovers. God bless this band.

[Whenvakattaks]

This song is an epic action/adventure film rolled into 6 minutes. It's incredible!

[jnperez]

Love Lauren's vocals, so much passion/emotion!
