Sword, The - The Frost-Giant's Daughter Lyrics






Waiting for dawn on the snow-covered tundra
Your foes lying dead at your feet
Look to the sky for a good star to guide you
And pray that the morning you'll meet

Tresses of fire
Skin white as snow
Promising pleasure
She brings only woe

In the far northern reaches
Where dark mountains rise high
Enchantress beseeches
That you give up your life

Look to the sky for a good star to guide
And pray that the morning you'll meet

Witch of the wastes
Dancing on snows
Lord of the gallows
Takes what he's owed
A wisp of gossamer is all that remains...

    I got the Gods of the Earth album thinking it was by the Canadian band Sword, and I liked it even better

  13. C.... I....

    Love their sound on this release, it's so authentic, not afraid to be imperfect, not polished and over produced.

    C.... I....

    It's the drum sound, isn't it? Crushing and powerful . . . visceral :)

  14. C.... I....

    Fuck yes.

  15. I.... ....

    I need help finding R E Howards "Frost Giants Daughter". I cant find it anywhere. Somebody told me it was a short story and therefore in a book of another name. PLEASE HELP!

    I.... ....

    @Michael Furious
    Thanks brother. Oddly enough I just found "The Coming of Conan the Cimmerian" just two days ago at a bookstore in Vegas. Cant wait to check it out. Thanks again!

    I.... ....

    @IGotALetterFromMe

    I.... ....

    here's the story free on gutenberg: http://www.gutenberg.org/files/42664/42664-h/42664-h.htm

    I.... ....

    @mike34ism that was the story that was originally published in Weird Tales. In later publishings, Amra was changed to Conan and the name was changed to Frost-Giant's Daughter.

    I.... ....

    @***** Thanks man, that was very interesting.

  16. A.... S....

    God dammit this is song has an end. -_-

  17. c.... ....

    Retro, metal,awesome, ... love this band. If you ever get the chance to see em' live do it! They put on a good show.

  18. S.... M....

    So fucking heavy.

  19. O.... M....

    Sorry but im still busy guarding Ásgarðr. Maybe next time?

  20. S.... o....

    Instead of confining bands to genres why dont we just accept it for what it is. Good music....

  21. o.... ....

    Obviously he is a frost giant

  22. S.... D....

    Way to delete your comments upon realizing how wrong you are. That's why they're not classified as being the same... guy. They're not heavy metal, they're extreme metal. The same applies with death metal and thrash metal. If people wanna talk in a civil manner about bands they listen to, you really have no reason to be a tremendous dick and say ludicrous things to them. That's the exact nerve you struck. Maybe this exchange would've went differently if you weren't being unreasonably biased.

  23. n.... ....

    You don't need help. You are perfect.

  24. S.... D....

    If that's what this band's coldness does then I don't even wanna know what happens if you listen to Immortal.

  25. M.... S....

    nah its just the sheer awesomeness of this song

  26. P.... E....

    love the dynamic of this song, riff to riff and sweet drums

  27. p.... ....

    to nippleheim

  28. Q.... ....

    Help! Fingers permanently stuck in \m/ position!

  29. S.... H....

  30. d.... a....

    @TenchiBushi likewise

  31. J.... M....

    Yep, this is gonna be the soundtrack to my chaotic evil raiding party-campaign. OVERTHROW THE THRONE, CUT DOWN THOSE WHO STAND BEFORE YOU AND LEAVE NOTHING BUT FIRE IN YOUR WAKE.

  32. E.... ....

    "The giants answered with roars like the grinding of icebergs on a frozen shore..."

  33. G.... ....

    @arsongrady I LIKE YOUR TRAIN OF THOUGHT I HAVE A FEW EX BOSSES WHO NEED PUNISHING!!

  34. S.... H....

    @SuperShredder89 if you dont know then dont worry about it

  35. T.... F....

  36. a.... ....

    makes me want to swing an axe into somones face, and paint myself with the blood of the fallen!!!

  37. S.... H....

    Pfft Frost-Giants only have like 10 or 11 hit dice. A fifth or sixth level party could take one down easily if they have flaming oil :P

  38. s.... ....

    Connan owns.

    @ToujoursLAmour If anyone reads this and doesn't know what the hell he's talking about, drop what you're doing and go read "The Frost Giant's Daughter" by Robert E. Howard. No excuses.
