Lyrics by Valgrind for Valgrind and remixed for Iron Legacy. (Verse 1) From beyond the Wall they rise again With eyes like frost and hearts of pain No warmth remains, no soul to save A thousand swords can’t guard the grave (Pre-Chorus) Winds of winter howl their cry The North will burn, the South will die (Chorus) The dead are on the march tonight A storm of ice, a war of blight No fire strong, no steel can hold The darkness spreads, so cruel, so cold The dead are on the march – beware For none shall live and none shall care (Verse 2) Ancient kings with crowns of bone Drag their chains across the stone Brothers fall with lifeless gaze Trapped within the wight’s dark maze (Chorus) The dead are on the march tonight A tide of doom, a stolen light No prayer is heard, no gods remain Only cold, eternal reign The dead are on the march – beware Their touch is death, their gaze despair (Solo) (Bridge) We lit the flames, we rang the bell But Heaven turned and left us Hell One hope remains, one dragon’s breath To hold the line against the death (Breakdown) Steel shatters / Shields break The ground trembles with every quake A frozen roar / A haunting sound The Night King comes – to claim his crown (Chorus) The dead are on the march tonight A tide of doom, a stolen light No prayer is heard, no gods remain Only cold, eternal reign The dead are on the march – beware Their touch is death, their gaze despair (Outro) When shadows stretch and stars are gone The march goes ever, ever on… Lyrics by Valgrind.
