Gallows Pass Songtext
von Adavänt

From the woods, the men emerge
Surrounding them as a deadly scourge
They swallowed the caravan as it passed
To free a comrade from their grasp

The guards drew swords with battle cries
And held the line to protect their prize
Not gold, nor treasure, nor trinkets of men
But the shadowy figure chained within

Held captive in sorrow
Hangman′s noose awaits on the morrow
They'd not leave him to this fate
There′s men to kill and chains to break

As the raiders charge, the silver moon
Caught glimpses of the cloaked platoon
Shadows of men dressed in black
Demons of the sneak attack


In darkness the guards couldn't tell
From whence they came, whether earth or hell
When they saw steel, it was too late
As the dark assassins sealed their fate

Held captive in sorrow
Hangman's noose awaits on the morrow
They′d not leave him to this fate
There′s men to kill and chains to break

And the guards
All men of the crown
Lay dead on the ground
All butchered like flies
On cold earth they lie

All men of the crown
Lay dead on the ground
All butchered like flies
On cold earth they lie
All men of the crown
Lay dead on the ground
Vengeance is found


Held captive in sorrow
Hangman's noose awaits on the morrow
They′d not leave him to this fate
There's men to kill and chains to break

Inside the wagon, they were met with the grin
Of a liberated captain freed by his men
No doubt in his mind his brothers would come
And into the woods the men did run
