Noldor ( Dead Winter Reigns ) Lyrics


Artist: Blind Guardian
Album: Nightfall In Middle-Earth



Noldor
Blood is on your hands
Your bane's
A tearful destiny

Black clouds will carry
Rain of blood
I've seen it rain

We were lost
On grinding ice
In fear and hunger
Dead winter reigned
In Araman

prebridge:
(You) can't escape
From my damnation
(Nor) run away
From isolation

bridge:
Guilty spoke the one
THis deed can't be undone
Hear my words
Fear my curse

chorus:
I know where the stars glow
(And the) sky's unclouded
Sweet the water runs my friend
(But) Noldor
Blood is on your hands
Tears unnumbered
You will shet and dwell in pain

Your homeless souls
Shall come to me
There's no release
Slain you might be
Slain you will be
Slain you will be
And the lost
Who will not reach the
House of spirits
(Will) grow old and weary

prebridge

bridge

chorus

I've seen this bitter end
As I've foreseen
The storm and ice
And I could see it
(How) a million died
And I?
The blame's on me
Cause I was not there

prebridge

bridge

chorus

Dead winter reigns
And tomorrow's still unknown
Lies
Condemned and betrayed
Now everything is said
See my eyes
Are full of tears
And a cruel price
We've paid
But still I can't claim
That I'm innocent

Lost

hell, its capable of evokin a great number of feelings, mostly desperation, just dont hear it if you have separation anxiety

Great song!
I've read J.R.R. Tolkien's book many times and I think this song perfectly pictures history of Noldors - their betrayal, massacre of Teleri elves and flight from Valinor.
Indeed - it can make cry.

"The blame's on me
Cause I was not there"

I've puzzled over this - maybe the speaker here is Feanor, and he is blaming himself because he was not present when Morgoth stormed Formenos, slew his father and stole the Silmarils? Perhaps he thinks if he were present he could have prevented these events - thus he blames himself?

Other interpretations welcome...

Like many of the other BG - NFiME songs, I agree this one is very moving.
