Tragedy of the Guild Lyrics


Early this day, with blood the contract was signed

Too much gold involved, a high price for a single head

Someone from the court I might guess.

Well, we don't shot in the dark, we murder, one by one.

Until you get caught

Coldly calculating a way to kill his target

Moving through the shadows like a beast

A black dagger in his hand and a dark hood covering his face

Proud of its unknown origins

Paralyzed and stucked in an eternal dream

The voice of this man was silenced

By the poison placed in his pint

Hear the call of crows

The messengers of death

Just another drunk intoxicated

By the amount of alcohol ingested

I´m ready to collect my prize

When I turned my head behind

I saw my prey, Awaken

Shocking everyone in that tavern,.

The living dead became the focus of all eyes

Intrigued, I managed to escape the place without being noticed

No man could resist thIs poison

Paranoid I flee to avoid more trouble

A failure like this will never be forgiven

Someone set me up for an ambush

We have a traitor

In our guild

Riding as fast as my horse could

But an arrow went through my chest

And the last thing I remember

Was my body collapsing on

that snowy road

The winter breeze

Chained in a barn

Sitting in front of me the covetous elf of our guild, we call him as Falconer

He could have killed me with that arrow if he wanted, apparently this was not his intention.

After a speech of envy and hate, his desire for my suffering would be quenched

Passing a torch through the hay behind me caused a big fire

Collapsing the roof, the pillar which I was tied to falls off.

That traitor with an expression of surprise at seeing me alive.

Running towards the arrows, with the pierced body I reached him

The price of a betrayal, costed a brother’s life

I killed him with my bare hands, I call this day the as the tragedy of the guild.
