Lyrics: Sonata Arctica. Reckoning Night. Ain't Your Fairytale.

The ones who seek justice

Will pray for it all their lives

They can and they will skin us all one day

Oh, can you hear them cries?

As far as the man can run from us

We're following the trail of blood

So hunt, my young ones...



I have always known the storm would come

Listen now my young ones

This is not a story I tell

Of midnight, moon and sun



Are you ready to walk the forbidden road?

Learn again what we tried to forget?

The dark can now take over you



We had a common past, an ancient bond

The people once broke

We would only take what we need,

They would harvest our weak



But they hunted us all

We ended the last of them, thus far

Ten lifetimes ago

In hope of healing the sore

But the war still went on



Preying for the moon, hiding for the day

These might be our last times

I ain't gonna see you taken away

Heading for the dawn of our way of life

You're welcome to give it your best try

Look me in the eyes oh, wolver,

This ain't your fairytale



It took so many years to teach them

How to cry wolf

We made the people serve the purpose

Those ignorant fools (my young ones)



Teach the ones below you something you've learned

And learn from the ones above you

Fear is your deepest wisdom

For these last days




Praying for the moon, hiding for the day

These might be our last times

I ain't gonna see you taken away

Heading for the dawn, of our way of life

You're welcome to give it your best try

Look me in the eyes oh wolver,

This ain't your fairytale



The who seek justice

Will pray for it all their lives

They can and they will skin us all one day

Oh, can you hear them cries

As far as the man can run from us

We're following the trail of blood

So hunt, my young ones

The pack they have always feared is back!



On your last day, remember:

We never die

Death does not exist for us



They don't fear the wolf,

But the wild within

No glory to the way this must end

This is a story I told

Unfolding before you



Praying for the moon, hiding for the day

These might be our last times

I ain't gonna see you taken away

Heading for the dawn of our way of life

You're welcome to give it your best try

Look me in the eyes oh, wolver,

This ain't your fairytale



The ones who seek justice

Will pray for it all their lives

They can and they will skin us all one day

Oh, can you hear them cries

As far as the man can run from us

We're following the trail of blood

So hunt, my young ones

The pack they have always feared is back!
