Canciones para una vida - Blind Guardian - Blood Of The Elves

 

BLOOD  OF  THE  ELVES

Después de desvelar tanto la lista de temas que compondrán el album como la portada del mismo, Blind Guardian no deja otro de los adelantos del que será ya su duodécimo LP de estudio "The God Machine" cuya salida oficial se espera para el mes de septiembre. El nuevo tema lleva por nombre "Blood of the elves", que líricamente se basa en la serie de juegos de ordenador "The witcher". En boca de Hansi se trata de una canción que mezcla la parte instruental de lo que hacía la banda en los 90 con la parte vocal de los 2000 en una especie de hibrido. Dejo hoy un enlace a youtube del clip oficial que la banda a grabado para el single.

Honor, it's easy to dispose
In this darkest hour we're alone
From behind closed doors it aims for her
Magic's reaching out to draw her in
To the eye of the storm
The storm

Get her out of the way, she is your destiny
Now better hide when chaos breaks loose
Chaos's breaking loose

Just take her away, stay silent
Just take her away, no matter
The poet lied (The poet lied)
The poet lied to save her life

Queen, follow the sign
Share our sorrows, clear your mind
Despite the writing on the wall
Hope grows from now on
For our brotherhood stands strong
Queen, follow the sign
Blood of the elves, predestined child

There's danger when everything's at stake here
It follows wherever you may roam
Well, then at last there's a choice, a path
Dedicate yourself to the innocent
All praise to her in glory
Gracious lioness Elven seed

Horror, come to meet me
I'm here to erase thee
Black or white, just pay me
In between there hardly is a line

Black
White
Black
White

White Wolf
The source inside her
It's not a shallow river
It can't grow wild
It's hard to bind
It can't grow wild
We need advice

Queen, follow the sign
Share our sorrows, clear your mind
Despite the writing on the wall
Hope grows from now on
For our brotherhood stands strong
Queen, follow the sign
Blood of the elves, predestined child

I tell you, consider you are wrong here
I tell you, there's more than meets the eye
Your secret rites
Fools, you better think twice
Tribulation's caused by your ignorance
The world it bleeds
Ignore its cries
But soon there is a path to choose

Queen, follow the sign
Share our sorrows, clear your mind
Despite the writing on the wall
Hope grows from now on
For our brotherhood stands strong
Queen, follow the sign
Blood of the elves, predestined child

The hill will claim you, keep on running
Your name's engraved, you know it's true
Yes, death has cold blue eyes
Die, die, time to die!
