A Distant Flame Before The Sun (1999 - Stronghold)

I sit beside the fire and think
Of how the world will be
When winter comes without a spring
That I shall ever see

I sit beside the fire and think
Of people long ago
And people who will see a world
that I shall never know

I sit beside the fire and think
Of older times that were before
I listen for returning feet
And voices at my door

On high above the mists I came
distant flame before the sun
wonder ere the waking dawn
Where grey the nordlands waters run
In elder days and years of yore

...Now behold the awful price of treason...

...Through dreams I influence mankind...
