lyrics

Under the light of a harvest moon we ride for human lands.
I am one with my lupine brethren - Take my sword in hand!
The time has come for the yearly raids. We'll take all we can get.
Should any dare to stand in our way, let their blood be spilt!

Chosen at birth by tribal elders, raised amongst the pack.
Only the great survive the challenge. There's no turning back!
Of fur and fang, blood and steel, a symbiotic force.
Tonight's the night - I am unleashed! - to prove what I am worth!

Warg Rider!
Born of the den, son of the wild.
Warg Rider!
You cannot stand up to my might.
I am the terror of the night!

We crest the hill in bounding strides, our eager eyes behold
The dancing lights of village fires in the plains below.
The sentries are to no avail, felled with a single strike.
The howl of warg and screams of man fill the air this night!

Warg Rider!
Born of the den, son of the wild.
Warg Rider!
You cannot stand up to my might.
No one could ever match the
Warg Rider!
Son of the den, my fury's primal
Warg Rider!
You cannot stand up to my might.
I am the terror!

It lyrically embraces fantasy related elements, a guise through which human nature and the surrounding world is explored. The majority of the songs tell stories, with common themes being adventure, bravery, death and spirituality. ... more
