Dead of the Night

All you know is ashes beneath the snow
 Still mercy weighs more than gold in the end
 And all you are, an innocent child at heart
 A warrior born to march when darkness descends
 Now I stand alone at the crossroads
 Licking my wounds, hiding my face
 Pray for the raven of new hope
 Guiding me home, keeping me safe
 But I feel the noose pulling tighter
 Slip through the cracks, dig my own grave
 The wolves of the winter are howling
 Dead of the night, take me away
 These battle lines separate our two kinds
 We'll never see eye to eye in this game
 But I won't hide, I'll never give up this fight
 Forsake all honour and pride, deny my own name
 Now I stand alone at the crossroads
 Licking my wounds, hiding my face
 Pray for the raven of new hope
 Guiding me home, keeping me safe
 But I feel the noose pulling tighter
 Slip through the cracks, dig my own grave
 The wolves of the winter are howling
 Dead of the night, take me away
 Now I stand alone at the crossroads
 Licking my wounds, hiding my face
 Pray for the raven of new hope
 Guiding me home, keeping me safe
 But I feel the noose pulling tighter
 Slip through the cracks, dig my own grave
 The wolves of the winter are howling
 Dead of the night, take me away
