Chain of Dogs

from The Book of the Fallen by Toblakai

lyrics

Dragging on, step by step.
Fighting for every breath.
Leaving Hissar’s walls behind.
Only death and sorrow we will find.
For Aren we must march.
The Whirlwind’s wrath we will feel.
A refugee train slowing us down.
With tribal forces at our heels.

Carry on! March on!
Pull this chain of dogs!

Many a soldiers we have lost.
Even our victories come at a cost.
Never time to rest or heal.
The wrath of the goddess we feel.
Children are dying whilst the nobles moan.
Starved and dehydrated, they are weak to the bone.
The walls of Aren, nowhere to be seen.
Soldiers carry on, a nightmare birthed this scene.

Carry on! March on!
Pull this chain of dogs!

For duty I hold my head up high.
Forward brothers, even though the end is nigh.
One last push, we carve our way through all.
It ain’t over until at last we fall.

Aren’s walls! We are nearly there!
Aren’s walls! We will live, I swear!
Aren’s walls! I can see the gates!
Aren’s walls! We defied our fate!

Toblakai Graz, Austria

Toblakai. Thrashing black metal from Austria. This band is brutal, cunning and epic, just like Karsa Orlong. Witness the power of their songs unfold and behold the might inspired by the great Steven Erikson.
