Lyrics:

What do I see on the icy plains
The desolate one, it’s my terrain
The wind it blows cold howling my name
I am the king of, the king of this waste

Can you see this arid land 
lain to waste
Ravaged, scorched yet frozen
from your neglect
I am the formless one
I came to save
You are the chosen ones
You’ll be my slaves

I stand on the glacier above it all
Watching them crumble, watching them crawl
Iced Earth has risen, nature will fall
Death and destruction, watch them evolve

Can you feel the madness here
Drawing you all to near
Earth and fire, water and air
Save yourselves from despair

We are together now
Crush the cowards, do it now
End the light, end the one
We have come to save the young ones

So on and on the story goes
Destroying yourselves the pain it shows


Ok thats pretty much everything you need to know, or at least everything that 
I know. I’m not positive this is right but it’s as close as I can get. Have 
fun kids.
