Borknagar - Thunderous Lyrics






Up high and far away, where the air is clear
A vast horizon shimmers
The cold wind seems to carry the light away
As the earth's rotation closes the day

Beyond the towering peaks
Recurring shadows bow deep
Into the raging rivers

The ground runs cold and hard
Throughout the dark season
Roots grow deep in order to keep
Clinging to the gusty plains
The wind hushes the earth to sleep.

The ebb and flow of growth and regression
Seasons build, seasons tear down
The northern hammer
Keeps beating, beating
Hear the echoes rumble

Summers reveal, winters conceal
The thunderous sky oversees it all
Up high and far away, where the air is clear
Vast horizon call

The mighty force of winter
Shapes a merciless scenery
Throughout the dark seasons
Roots grow deep in order to keep
Clanging to the gusty plains
The wind hushes the earth to sleep.

The ebb and flow of growth and regression
Seasons build, seasons tear down
The northern hammer
Keeps beating, beating
Hear the echoes rumble
Across the thunderous sky

  1. M.... J....

    Absolutely a great record. Here, Yes, Jon Anderson, Chris Squire and Trevor Rabin are basically present in the whole record. Sublime direction!!

  2. M.... O....

    Espectacular

  3. M.... S....

    Sounds like Arcturus

    M.... S....

    I  agree a little on that, however I don't mind it, I have seen Arcturus live and in April I will see Borknagar. Both bands are great, as long as neither go goofball like Dimmu we should all be happy, grim frostbitten happy...

    M.... S....

    @Rabid Gearboy I Like both bands so there is no issue

  4. D.... S....

    Less black metal, more prog metal. I like!

  5. J.... S....

    I like the sound of this album much more than some of the past ones.

    Thunderous

    Up high and far away, where the air is clear
    A vast horizon shimmers
    The cold wind seems to carry the light away
    As the earth's rotation closes the day
    Beyond the towering peaks
    Recurring shadows bow deep
    Into the raging rivers
    Beyond the towering peaks
    Recurring shadows bow deep
    Into the raging rivers
    The ground runs cold and hard
    Throughout the dark seasons
    The ebb and flow of growth and regression
    Seasons build, seasons tear down
    The northern hammer
    Keeps beating, beating
    Hear the echoes rumble
    Hear the echoes rumble
    Beyond the towering peaks
    Recurring shadows bow deep
    Into the raging rivers
    Into the raging rivers
    Beyond the towering peaks
    Recurring shadows bow deep
    Into the raging rivers
    The ground runs cold and hard
    Throughout the dark seasons
    Roots grow deep in order to keep
    Clinging to the gusty plains
    The wind hushes the earth to sleep
    The ebb and flow of growth and regression
    Seasons build, seasons tear down
    The northern hammer
    Keeps beating, beating
    Beating, beating
    Hear the echoes rumble
    Across the thunderous sky
    Summers reveal, winters conceal
    The thunderous sky oversees it all
    Up north and far away, where the air is clear
    Vast horizons call
    The mighty force of winter
    Shapes a merciless scenery
    Throughout the dark seasons
    Roots grow deep to keep
    Earth to sleep
