Face the Truth Lyrics
The moon, the sign of hope
It appeared when we left the pain of the ice-desert behind

Condemned we are
We brought hope, but also lies, and treachery
It appeared when we left the pain of the ice-desert behind
We faced up to the curse and endured misery
Condemned we are
We brought hope, but also lies, and treachery

It's probably an introduction to the next song "Noldor (dead Winter Reigns)" (http://songmeanings.com/songs/view/129982/). "We brought hope" (Without the Noldors, the Sindars would probably not resists to Morgoth) "but also lies, and treachery" (It concerns the doom of Mandos. The Noldors didn't say a word about this doom nor that they are banish from Valinor)
Specifically, this is likely the viewpoint of Fingolfin or someone in his company that was left behind by Feanor in the stolen Teleri ships (Feanor burned the ships rather than send anyone back for Fingolfin and the rest of his company). Instead, Fingolfin and a part of his company dared the grinding ice of the Helcaraxe (similar to the Bearing Strait) to come back to Middle-Earth.
