Sword, The - Ebethron Lyrics
Black blades in their hands
Obey his every command
They search for that which was lost
Through realms of rime and of frost
Where no mortal may pass
Sits a scepter of light
A symbol of titan’s might
He comes from cities of darkness
To suffer harlots and fools
Loneliness is his raiment
Solitude is his jewel
He’s seen the valley of solace
Beheld the spires of sleep
He’s fed the pyres of the fallen
We come from cities in darkness
To conquer cowards and fools
Loneliness is our payment
Solitude is our due
Walk through valleys of solace
Ascend the spires of sleep
Ignore the warnings of prophets
And for the children I’ll weep
Skies blackened with crows
Shadows on winter’s snows
Within a temple of ice
Priestesses perform the rites
Witness the setting of suns
The darkest days have begun
Let the seers come forth
At morning’s light we ride north

Sword, The Ebethron Comments
there's so many awesome songs that I can't point to 1 and say it's my favorite.
Too awesome.
I'll take S-words for a thousand.
Whats this song about? Or about who?
Black blades in their hands
Obey his every command
They search for that which was lost
Through realms of rime and of frost
Where no mortal may pass
Atop a dais of glass
Sits a scepter of light
A symbol of titan’s might
He comes from cities of darkness
To suffer harlots and fools
Loneliness is his raiment
Solitude is his jewel
He’s seen the valley of solace
Beheld the spires of sleep
He’s fed the pyres of the fallen
And heard their widows weep
We come from cities in darkness
To conquer cowards and fools
Loneliness is our payment
Solitude is our due
Walk through valleys of solace
Ascend the spires of sleep
Ignore the warnings of prophets
And for the children I’ll weep
Skies blackened with crows
Shadows on winter’s snows
Within a temple of ice
Priestesses perform the rites
Witness the setting of suns
The darkest days have begun
Let the seers come forth
At morning’s light we ride north
+Lisa Marie Spot on!
i cant believe this is a 2000s band . probably the best one ive ever heard from the decade
I listen to this band too much haha
I loooooooove the second album. And yes the first is my favorite but the second album is somewhat slightly shifted in terms of genre, this does not make it worse/better just different, I did not like the third album at first cause I listen to the sword for doom metal not heavy metal, but when I was more in the mood for faster metal I too fell in love with the third album, again it is just a different genre not better/worse though I quite miss Cronise and very miss the unique style of this album
Not sure how you miss him, he never went anywhere.
Actually, what I've heard it's because of the direction their music took at later albums. Haven't tried listening to those yet though so I have no real valid opinion. :P
I didn't know that, that's crazy
SKIES BLACKEN WITH CROWS!!!
you know how faggy internet metalheads are, people call the sword hipster metal because of the way they dress sometimes and things like that. its metal, not a fashion show.
cause every album is worse than the first, and the frontman's hairstyle doesn't help the situation.
You are literally retarded.
3:08 what a drummer!!!!!!!!!
AT MORNING LIGHT WE RIDE NORTH!
They tend to be very close minded about new bands.
wow this is amazing!!
@aaartnaz Damn right. I got into these guys about a year back and it totally changed my approach to the guitar. I've always been a Laney AOR amp user and I picked up a BC Rich Mockingbird like JD's. Loving the combination.
@kombik98 yeah i hear people call them hipsters, but i don't care what they think, this shit is rocking
@frenchicelandicpomel Jealousy? Maybe they don't get what they're about? With all the screamo crap about these guys have redefined good tight classic metal.
@ArgueExplain
I guess that puts you in the minority of those who do not listen to multiple The Sword songs over and over.
The main/opening/post-breakdown riff is one of the greatest things I've ever heard.
The problem with "The Sword" is that if you watch one of their videos, your video feeds gets filled with other Sword videos. I just wanted to see what they sounded like, I didn't want to get video blitzed by them.
That's how YouTube is designed. Don't be retarded.
Love the drum breakdown! it is actually kinda chill
cant wait for new album in a few months :D
sounds like CoC's arms of god beginning riff
best song on the album. killer main riff
sounds awesome.
nice!
