Distant drums
Red on the foam
Smoke in the sky
Ravens are circling
Why do they fly so low?

[Verse 1]
Two carved wolves
Cut through the waves
Salt in our scars
Iron in our veins

Laughing of oarsmen
Still in the air
Till the wind brings
Ash
And burning hair

We reach the shore
Where the songs once grew
Only crows and carrion
Waiting in our shoes

[Pre-Chorus]
Tiny bones in the sand
Small hands turned to stone
Names carved into shields
Now splintered
Alone

[Chorus]
The horde is coming for you
By the light of the sleepless sun
You opened the gates of doom
Now see what you have begun

We’ll carve your crime in your skulls
Till the earth remembers it too
Pray to your fading gods
The horde is coming for you (for you)

[Verse 2]
Houses
Half-hanging
On broken black beams
Cradle on a rope
Swaying over screams

Braids cut
Trampled
Beads lost in the dust
We kneel in the ruin
And swear in our rust

Old ones laid open
On the blood-soaked floor
Someone laughed long
As they left this shore

[Pre-Chorus]
We taste the truth in the smoke
We were stabbed in the back
Not in the shield-wall’s clash
But in a coward’s attack

[Chorus]
The horde is coming for you
By the light of the sleepless sun
You opened the gates of doom
Now see what you have begun

We’ll carve your crime in your skulls
Till the earth remembers it too
Pray to your fading gods
The horde is coming for you

[Bridge]
We follow the footprints
Black on the snow
We follow the fear
Wherever you go

We follow the blood drops
Frozen and thin
We follow the whispers
Under your skin

(hey!)
We ride with the dead at our backs
(hey!)
We sing with the rage that you sparked
(hey!)
We carry no mercy in packs
Only fire
Only dark

[Chorus]
The horde is coming for you
Under fire that never dies
Midnight sun burning cold
In our unblinking eyes

We’ll grind your names into dust
Let the wolves devour what’s due
The last thing you’ll ever hear
The horde is coming for you

[Outro]
[choir
Half-whispered
Half-roared]
For every child
For every tear
We are the storm
You called down here

The horde is coming for you
The horde is coming for you
