Prologue Songtext
von Eluveitie

When I reminisce about all those years, I see many things
Life and death strung together like the mountains and valleys in which we lived
There was wealth and opulence, but also tribulation and loss
There was laughter and song, and there was also tears


But even more than tears, blood was shed
And so many were left to their unadorned graves, unburied
But to us, death was but another journey
And close by the darkness through which we strode, there was also light
The light of life and immortality

And after all, when I reminisce about those years, I mostly remember our songs
We sang as if to drown out the sound of clashing swords
As if the battle cries fell silent
Because war had lost its meaning
