Lyrics Blind Guardian – The Tides Of War

Call the wind, I hail thee
But sail on through the storm
There’s fire in my mind, fire in my mind
Fire in my mind, fire in my mind

There’s no escape
And there’s no return
The blood and smoke behind us
It’s now out of sight
Tears you might be crying
But it’s over now
For a higher cause we’ve come
So just keep your hate alive

The tides of war (the tides of war)
We’ve come to face it in these lands
We’ve come to face it in these lands
The Curse of Fëanor

No sorrow, no loss I count the ones behind
Come follow, don’t turn your back and let ’em whine
The grief is real, the pain I feel
It’s not what I’ve been longing for
They shall be free, they’ll be released
They can’t get over the sea

They were following in vain
Burning vessels, burning hope
Needless baggage on the road
Let ’em curse me, let ’em blame
They may have faced their journey’s end

Boats at distant shore they burn
The wind still carries smoke
In Araman we’ve seen Teleri’s work on fire

You’ve gone too far, you’ve come to fail
Fëanor
All done in vain, by the oath
You delivered our doom

The tides of war (the tides of war)
We’ve come to face it in these lands
We’ve come to face it in these lands
The Curse of Fëanor

Boats at distant shore they burn
The wind still carries smoke
In Araman we’ve seen Teleri’s work on fire
Across the ice, aflamed
To take revenge, ashamed
Betrayed by the insane Fëanor

We’ve gone too far, we’ve come to fail
Fëanor
Yet we have reached the promised land
Oh, Fëanor

The tides of war (the tides of war)
We’ve come to face it in these lands
We’ve come to face it in these lands
The Curse of Fëanor
