From the Ground Up - The Grey Havens

We begin this calloused journey that was doomed from the start
The leagues in between us aiming for our hearts
We must act fast the walls are crumbling
You shall not pass

Oh, I'm weary from the fight when will it ever end?
Their strength has broken me but I was never dead
Bathed in white light I see the terror in their eyes
Strike down their putrid flesh and hear the echoed cries

My sword will guide you
Aye and my axe
Bow and arrow tools of war commence attack

The pressure of its power weighing on me
Return it to the fire and I will be free
The pressure of its power weighing on me
Save it from the fire it's all that I need

For those who've left us, for those who've died
She's taken from us by those ride
With help from the trees we'll head to the mountain and to the flame

Oh I'm weary from the fight when will it ever end?
Their strength has broken me but I was never dead
Bathed in white light I see the terror in their eyes
Strike down their putrid flesh and hear the echoed cries

My sword will guide you
Aye and my axe
Bow and arrow tools of war commence attack

The pressure of its power weighing on me
Return it to the fire and I will be free
The pressure of its power weighing on me
Save it from the fire it's all that I need

The mountain here beyond compare
The earth cracks and begins to rumble
The coast is clear. We're almost there
We're so close to ending the struggle

I'm not giving up
I'm not giving up
I will lift you up
I swear we can make it
I'm not giving up
I'm not giving up
I will lift you up
I swear we can make it

Armageddon, smoke, and ash
How long will the torment last?
Crushed, I hang my head in shame
Forever disgraced but now redeemed by the destruction of the one ring

The pressure of its power weighing on me
Return it to the fire and I will be free
The pressure of its power weighing on me
Save it from the fire it's all that I need

The mountain here beyond compare
The earth cracks and begins to rumble
The coast is clear. We're almost there
We're so close to ending the struggle

I'm not giving up
I'm not giving up
I will lift you up
I swear we can make it
I'm not giving up
I'm not giving up
I will lift you up
I swear we can make it
