[Intro – Ritual Chant | distant wind, deep drums]

(low male choir)
Fire in the frost…
Blood in the snow…
We return…
We return…

[Verse 1]

Northbound under iron skies
Through frozen valleys where silence lies
Torches burn against the storm
Small and brief, yet fierce and warm

Ash upon the weathered skin
The old chants rise again within
Every step on ancient stone
Calls the lost and long unknown

[Pre-Chorus]

The mountain watches without eyes
The wind remembers every cry

[Chorus – melodic, heavy]

Frostfire rite beneath the stars
Where death and memory leave their scars
We raise the flame against the night
To stand before the endless white

Frostfire rite — cold and bright
Ashes glowing in the blizzard light
No throne survives, no king remains
Only the fire inside our names

[Verse 2]

Drums echo through the frozen earth
Calling shadows back to birth
The sky hangs low in ancient gray
As if the world forgot the day

Hands to stone and heads bowed low
To the pulse beneath the snow
No prayer spoken, none required
Only breath and ritual fire

[Pre-Chorus 2]

The old gods sleep beneath the ice
Still we gather, still we rise

[Chorus]

Frostfire rite beneath the storm
Where broken souls are reforged warm
We carve our vows in smoke and flame
Then lose them to the night again

Frostfire rite — fierce and slow
Embers burning under snow
The north will take us when it calls
As it has taken kings and halls

[Bridge – Doom Ritual / Half-Time]

(tempo slows, drones rise)

Stone to ash
Ash to wind
Fire fading
Still within

(low choir joins)
We kneel not for salvation
But to remember

[Final Chorus – massive choir]

Frostfire rite beneath the sky
Where even mountains learn to die
We lift our voices, raw and worn
Against the cold that shaped our form

Frostfire rite — hear the sound
Of ancient hearts beneath the ground
And when our final breath is gone
The fire will carry on

[Outro – fading chant]

(wind, distant choir)
Fire in the frost…
Still burning…
