about

This is the band’s namesake song and one of the first tracks written by the band back in 2016! It is a bit of an anomaly as it is currently the only fantasy/sci-fi themed song in the band’s repertoire. The lyrics provide the backstory and origin of the Scrollkeeper, who was meant to be a shadowy (possibly female) figure, shaping events throughout time in order to influence the course of human civilization.

lyrics

Lyrics: Marfleet
Music: Kamburov

Freed upon this world of empty black souls
The keeper of dark and light has been born
Forced to feed on events long passed
The blank pages in blood are cast

Born to this world, it lives
Future unknown, the dread
Loss of hope
Armies will rise to kill the one
Rise, we ride, destroy
Sealing your fate

We have to fight the tyrant of blind and witless men
Free the minds, wake the sheep
The rising is at hand
Bound in flesh and bone will prevail
Quill of life, script of fate, seal the end of time
Cloaked in black, spawned
Form unknown but feared, become one
To right the wrongs of man
Judgment at hand, conspiring
Quill in hand, nations fall
Repent the lies
Your time to die

Born to this world it lives
Future unknown, the dread
Loss of hope
Words of truth, and lies become belief
Scrolls of life, scrolls of death, confusion in the mind
Centuries forged in tombs of the dead
Pariah, outcast, keeper of the scrolls
Words of truth, lies become belief
Scrolls of life, Scrolls of death, confusion in the mind
When the end is near, rise the Scrollkeeper
