Eowyn's Song

When you go they'll wrap me in linen
Kiss my lips once before they turn pale
On this morn you ride to the Haunted Mountain
And no one will hear of this tale
I have carried a blade from a young age
And I value the skills I have kept
I have but one fear: to end in a cage
So I go with a mind full of death
[Chorus]:
And oh, I would have followed you down
To the end, my Captain, my King!
Oh, I would have followed you down
To the Paths of the Dead
But I ride to find my own meaning
When you go I'll shed these maiden's clothes
And my lips move with prayer on my breath
As a boy or a man I can face the blackness
For we meet with the armies of death
[Chorus]:
And oh, I would have followed you down
To the end, my Captain, my King!
Oh, I would have followed you down
To the Paths of the Dead
But I ride to find my own meaning
And fire consumes the heart that teaches the Captain of Evil to fall
Desire as pure as the man that reaches the humble hero in us all
[Chorus]:
And oh, I would have followed you down
To the end, my Captain, my King!
Oh, I would have followed you down
To the Paths of the Dead
But I ride to find my own meaning
