[Verse]
Night splits open wide
Shadows claw the trees like beasts
A whisper in the dark
Rider tears through the storm
Child clings tight silent cry
Who calls from the black?
[Chorus]
Erlkönig rides the wind tonight
His voice a serpent coil of lies
Erlkönig whispers sweet delight
But the child knows only fright
[Verse 2]
Fog drips thick like blood
Eyes burn in the endless night
Who hunts in the mist?
Promises like chains
Golden light turns into thorns
Run faster or be lost
[Chorus]
Erlkönig rides the wind tonight
His voice a serpent coil of lies
Erlkönig whispers sweet delight
But the child knows only fright
Night splits open wide
Shadows claw the trees like beasts
A whisper in the dark
Rider tears through the storm
Child clings tight silent cry
Who calls from the black?
[Chorus]
Erlkönig rides the wind tonight
His voice a serpent coil of lies
Erlkönig whispers sweet delight
But the child knows only fright
[Verse 2]
Fog drips thick like blood
Eyes burn in the endless night
Who hunts in the mist?
Promises like chains
Golden light turns into thorns
Run faster or be lost
[Chorus]
Erlkönig rides the wind tonight
His voice a serpent coil of lies
Erlkönig whispers sweet delight
But the child knows only fright
Stijl van muziek
epic; driving rhythm with heavy guitars and thunderous drums, orchestral, rock, metal, layered with haunting orchestral strings and brass for a cinematic texture; dynamic male vocals that shift from growls to soaring cries
