Act 2. Siege of the Northlands

Indomitable

I fight with old wounds
Pain years have detuned
A weight I′ve long borneTo Klaus I have sworn

Reluctance and dread
Of whence I fled
Reluctance and dread
Reluctance and dread

Are they worth saving
Or deserve enslaving
Klaus needs my defense
You never let down a friend

Reluctance and dread
To whence I fled
To the North Pole I tread
Reluctance and dread

With dread, I tread
Tread through the northern wastes
With dread I tread, with dread I tread
With dread, I tread
Tread through the northern wastes
With dread I tread, to destiny

Meddlesome elves, how futile their fight
When they meet me, they'll regret their choice
I advance unguarded, that godling won′t show
Elven betrayal, their fate sown long ago

Plot of death and duplicity
Lie, cheat, kill, dominate
Plot of death for all my foes
Lay down and decompose

That silly godling was able to rule
But for his flaw, too weak to be cruel
I pulled the strings, gave them enough rope
Now he's long gone and their only hope

Plot of death and duplicity
Lie, cheat, kill, dominate
Plot of death for all my foes
Lay down and decompose

I feel for Dolph, as we return to home
His past is more than most could stand
I know he fears he's not strong enough
But I′m his protector, his demons rebuffed

I′m only a man, nothing special
Too little to give
I try to be strong, but fear that I'll fail
Too little to give

If I fail him, we′ll never succeed
The fate of yuletide we cannot concede
If we're defeated, the north will fall
The world thereafter, corruption for all

I′m only a man, nothing special
Too little to give
I try to be strong, but fear that I'll fail
Too little to give

If we′re defeated and darkness descends
At least we'll have fought until the end
If my strength fails and we both fall
I'll meet you again, my friend, in Valhalla

Waste of magic power, breaking these fools
How dare they defy me, they′ll soon be my tools
They can face me in life, or become my undead
Both ways I win, they′ve chosen bloodshed

I see you strong one, you don't know your limits
When I get to you, it′ll be your last Christmas
Impressive bravery, life of martial skills
Albeit inadequate to keep me from my kill

Crush the resistance
Crush the resistance
Crush the, the resistance
Crush the resistance

I greatly enjoy our little dance
I'll let you think that you have, have half a chance
I′ll play with you until you think that you've won
And then surprise, you′re dead, you're done

Crush the resistance
Crush the resistance
Crush the, the resistance
Crush the resistance

Flashbacks of torment, arrive in the past
Burned out memories, the carnage is vast
Indignation, for those I must save
Incineration, the north pole enslaved

Trauma and horror

What evil unleashed this destruction
Pain rebuilds, midst the deconstruction
Arrows, bodies, houses burn
Undead army roil and churn

Trauma and horror

If you won't give up, I′ll set up a siege
Sooner or later, you′ll call me your liege
Over the battlement, I'm raining death
I can be patient, ′til Kris draws his last breath

You'll never survive
The siege of The Northlands
Bombard and deprive
The siege of the Northlands

No match for dark magic, you don′t stand a chance
I'll wear you down, though your walls block advance
Up on the battlement, silhouette in the mist
My quarry, my brother, good old saint Kris

You′ll never survive
The siege of The Northlands
Bombard and deprive
The siege of the Northlands

Undead stretch to the horizon
Too many to fight
So many block our way
I don't have the might

I have sworn my life, and my life I will give
We battle the, the inexhaustible Horde
I fight 'cause it′s right, so long as I live
We battle the, the inexhaustible Horde

Introspect, past humiliation
Deeper breaths, clear manipulation
Retrospect, our enemy Krampus
Lord of death, cause of all my madness

Embrace the pain
Lest it drive you insane
Embrace the pain
′Til your enemies slain

Clarity, open to the pain
Wash through me, show my disdain
My power, I feel the arcane
Annihilation, embrace my domain

Embrace the pain
Lest it drive you insane
Embrace the pain
'Til your enemies slain

Too little too late, the godling and his friend
When they get here, nothing left to defend
Even if he arrives, he′s doomed by his past
No way to forgive the trauma too vast

Quarry on the battlement
Good old saint Kris
Quarry on the battlement
Meet the abyss

The pitiful elves now need the outcast
But they'll never accept the godling′s dark past
My masterstroke, I'll rule the north Pole
It′s coming together, soon Kris in a hole

Quarry on the battlement
Good old saint Kris
Quarry on the battlement
Meet the abyss

I'm not ashamed. I'm not afraid
I deserve nothing, good or bad
I choose my virtue, I fight ′cause it′s right
Justice doesn't play favorites, neither do I

Whether they deserve it, it′s not me to choose
If I don't fight then my virtue I′ll lose
I fight with Klaus, to save the north pole
Unto Valhalla, I pledge my soul

Newfound strength, Dolph's power grows
Newfound strength, vanquish our foes
Newfound power, cleave the horde
Newfound power, indomitable force
Newfound courage, his strength bolsters mine
Newfound courage, our fates intertwined
Newfound strength, we can win
Newfound strength, so it begins

Newfound strength
Newfound strength
