[Verse 1]
Got a maid from the lands of north
A wife from lands of strange
The work of gods was at last replaced
By days and nights of men
[Chorus 1]
She wakes beside me
She stands by me
She stares at our sky
She lives our lives
[Verse 2]
In the beginning of all time the sounds of war
I sanctified for work
Cries of terror harmonized to a song
Spirits of wrath restrained
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And now dead is my wife
Ripped apart by iron teeth
Slashed by the claws of steel
The ancient venom surfaced again
[Chorus 2]
She lies in the ground
She's gone from me
She stares without eyes
She stares at me
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Poisoned by the bane of riches
Betrayed by lies manifold
Slayed by wretched avenger
The ancient venom turned the course of fate
[Chorus 2]
She lies in the ground
She's gone from me
She stares without eyes
She stares at me
[Chorus 3]
She walks beside me
She stared by me
She stared at our sky
And lived, our life
