Mortal Men Songtext
von Lindarion

Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die
In the Land of Mordor, where the Shadows lie

Nine rings were forged, in the hearts of men
Kings brave unmatched, across the lands
In gilded halls, on thrones of gold
Their power rose, their fates untold

But greed is born from whispers low
The dark one crawls, begins to grow
They sought for more, they took the prize
Yet in their hands, the darkness lies

Bound by the gift, they fade away
From light to shadow, night from day

Nine kings, nine shadows, bound by the call
Nine kings, nine shadows, ruin they fall
Their wills consumed by endless night
The kings of men, now wraiths of fright
They ride in silence, fear′s command
The Nine are lost, no soul to stand


Once bravest of the humankind
Their wisdom turned, their hearts grew blind
The rings they bore with hope in hand
Now chains of shadow in Sauron's land

They faded slow, their forms grew thin
Their mortal lives now lock within
The darkness called, they could not see
That from this curse, there′s no decree

Bound by the gift, they fade away
From light to shadow, night from day

Nine kings, nine shadows, bound by the call
Nine kings, nine shadows, ruin they fall
Their wills consumed by endless night
The kings of men, now wraiths of fright
They ride in silence, fear's command
The Nine are lost, no soul to stand

Nine kings, nine shadows, bound by the call
Nine kings, nine shadows, ruin they fall
Their wills consumed by endless night
The kings of men, now wraiths of fright
They ride in silence, fear's command
The Nine are lost, no soul to stand


Scream in the void, scream without sound
The shadows deepened, no soul to be found

Their crowns are dust, their thrones erased
Now cursed forever, their names displaced
No rest, no death, no peace to claim
Their faces gone, erased in flame

They serve the dark, will of one
In shadows now, their search begun
The bravest fell, the wisest lost
Their mortal souls, the final cost

From kings of men to wraiths of pain
Eternal servitude, endless reign

Nine kings, nine shadows, bound by the call
Nine kings, nine shadows, ruin they fall
Their wills consumed by endless night
The kings of men, now wraiths of fright
They ride in silence, fear′s command

The nine now ride
Hunting the land, the one will call
The nine Command
The nine now ride
Hunting the land, the one will call
The nine Command

Will of the one, The nine will stand
The nine will stand

Will of the one, The nine will stand
