[Verse 1] The hall grew still, the fire burned low The nights rolled on, the cold winds blow But somewhere past the candlelight A demon sharpened horns for the fight The chair stood bare, the chat grew thin They wondered when she'd ride again Then drums rang out beyond the gate The time has come, no more to wait [Pre-Chorus] Raise the banners, sound the horn Tell them all the day is born Through the dark and through the flame For Pickle comes to claim her name [Chorus] Pickle has returned! Let every torch be burned Stronger than before Now hear the whole hall roar Pickle has returned! With every lesson learned Raise your cups on high The demon rides tonight [Verse 2] No rust upon the old campaign No weakened hand, no broken reign What once could wound now leaves a scar A mark of just how strong we are The gates swing wide, the bells resound Old friends and faithful gather round No quiet step, no bowed-down head She storms the hall and wakes the dead [Pre-Chorus] Raise the banners, sound the horn Tell them all the day is born Through the dark and through the flame For Pickle comes to claim her name [Chorus] Pickle has returned! Let every torch be burned Stronger than before Now hear the whole hall roar Pickle has returned! With every lesson learned Raise your cups on high The demon rides tonight [Bridge] Let the doubters hear the singing Let the tavern rafters shake Let the bells of every tower Ring until the morning breaks What was strong has grown still stronger What was bright now brighter burns Make way, make way, and spread the word— For Pickle has returned! [Final Chorus] Pickle has returned! Let every torch be burned Stronger than before Now hear the whole hall roar Pickle has returned! With every lesson learned Raise your cups on high The demon rides tonight Pickle has returned! Pickle has returned!
