The Wandering Blade and the Singing String

[Verse 1] Through forests thick Where shadows creep A blade that whispers A vow to keep The bard beside him Strings in tune Their stories echo under the moon The beast may roar The wind may wail Yet on they march Through frost and gale [Chorus] Sing the song of the wandering blade Of battles fought and dues unpaid The bard will weave what the steel can't say Through night and dawn They’ll find their way [Verse 2] The river spoke in a language cold Of sins untold Of hearts grown old A monster waits Its hunger raw The hunter sharp Without a flaw But tell me Bard Who sings for thee When silence falls on victory? [Chorus] Sing the song of the wandering blade Of battles fought and dues unpaid The bard will weave what the steel can't say Through night and dawn They’ll find their way
