10. Shadows on the Mountain (deep sad remix)

V3.5

[Spoken Voice] (This is the story about Armfeldts brave heroes devastating march over the œjfjællet the year of grace 1719) (Verse 1) Up the mountain, they’re marching, Armfeldt's brave men, The sun hides its face, in the chill of winter’s den. Whispers of sorrow ride the cold, bitter air, Swedish heroes are fighting, trapped in the snow’s snare. (Chorus) Frostbitten in their hearts, we watch them fall like leaves, In the storm's silent embrace, where the heart never believes. They battle the darkness, yet the struggle's in vain, Shadows on the mountain call out their names, In endless silence, where loneliness reigns. (Verse 2) New Year's night sweeps in, like a blade through the frost, The retreat to Handöl, a dream turned to loss. They wrap in tatters of memories and pain, Frostbite, their unseen foe, as they fade in the snow’s domain. (Chorus) Frostbitten in their hearts, we watch them fall like leaves, In the storm's silent embrace, where the heart never believes. They battle the darkness, yet the struggle's in vain, Shadows on the mountain call out their names, In endless silence, where loneliness reigns. (Bridge) Statues of frozen spirits, cut by the wind’s cruel hand, They crawl, they stand tall, but no one understands. Three days of despair, caught in the tempest’s roar, Handöl’s call rings out, but help is far too poor, The medics are overwhelmed, as lives slip away for sure. (Chorus) Frostbitten in their hearts, we watch them fall like leaves, In the storm's silent embrace, where the heart never believes. They battle the darkness, yet the struggle's in vain, Shadows on the mountain call out their names, In endless silence, where loneliness reigns. (Outro) Three thousand souls lost, now the mountain’s embrace, Their tale softly whispers, in the winds that trace. We remember our heroes, in the cold where they fell, In the shadows of the mountains, their memory dwells. Shadows on the mountain, forever they’ll remain, In the echoes of the past, where love conquers pain.
