The Fall of the Elven Lord

Gather around, a story I will tell:
Of how the elven lord fell
In the battle of sudden flame
When he chose death rather than shame

The elves came from over the sea
The dark lord was their enemy
They laid siege to his dark realm
The world from his evil to defend

Mountains shatter spewing forth smoke and lava red
The Dark Lord has risen his power all now must dread
Fire breathing dragons charged from the black gate
Demons wielding whips and swords are here to seal your fate

Creatures that once were elves that were twisted by dark spells
In plate armour charge from the gates of the dark realms
Against elves and men they fight to conquer Middle Earth
To enslave or kill they seek, turn cities into dirt

The elven host fell one by one
All around dead, all hope was gone
The elven lord then stepped forth
Slaying the demons he challenged their lord
I fear not death, I fear not pain
I will avenge all who were slain
I will not yield as long as I stand
Never your foot will stand on this land

In black armour the dark lord stepped forth
Through the black gate out from the north
The two lords charged: the dark and the light
To death the final fight

I fear not death: if that is the price
I’ll gladly pay Dark Lord of lies
If by my death, defeat you I can
Gladly I’ll fall to save elf and man

The dark lord brought down his hammer black
Broke the elf’s armour: blocked his attack
Crushed the elf struck a desperate stroke
And with his last breath spoke

Can you not see: of this world Dark Lord:
You can not win: always a sword
Will rise to challenge your evil might
Always a hero will rise you to fight
I die in peace; I’ve done my part
Forever you’ll hide, fear rules your dark heart!

And so he died: the elven lord
The warrior brave that all adored
Crushed under the dark lords heel
Wounding the dark lord with his steel

So bring your blades: elves and men
Prepare our homes to defend
We have been called to fill the breach
So that our homes darkness won’t reach

Never retreat; never give inn:
We’ll die as one to save our kin
Into the battle charge with drawn sword
We shall defeat the Dark Lord
