The father of dragons
rays of ruby light
in anger flashes of red lightning
scarlet and green flames
licked the earth
destroyed all in their path
its might was in the evil spirit that inhabited it
not in the strengths its body though they were huge
in fiery wrath it bursted out from angbands gates
to destroy a starled world
slain by a thorn longer and sharper than the axe of azaghal
by a black sword
by all the hate a man can carry
a blade of dark wrath devoured its guts
it felt the sting of death
and made a scream that shook the mountains and forests
but by the poison of black blood
and the venom of its last words
the slayer met his doom
its might was in the evil spirit that inhabited it
not in the strengths its body though they were huge
in fiery wrath it bursted out from angbands gates
to destroy a starled world
slain by a thorn longer and sharper than the axe of azaghal
tales of greatness
tales of sorrow
tales of thousand tears
and the death of many

from east they came
to west their hands reached
towards the undying lands
of glory and light eternal
but the gates to that place
were forever sealed to them
their days were short
and swiftly death carried them
might and strength they held
not as mighty as the firstborn
but a menace to the enemy of light
might and strength they held
not as mighty as the firstborn
but a menace to the creator of fear
from east they came
to west their hands reached
towards the undying lands
of glory and light eternal
some seduced by the dark ones
forever doomed
some resisted
their days were short
but tales of heroism
and glory tell of them
might and strength they held
not as mighty as the firstborn
but a menace to the enemy of light
might and strength they held
not as mighty as the firstborn
but a menace to the creator of fear
no one knew where they went after passing away
no to the halls of mandos like the elven kind
not like the dwarves that go to aule in their end
some went to serve evil as soulles beings
cloacked in darkness and despair
some never witnessed what was beyond
enslaved to torment light
from east they came
to west their hands reached
towards the undying lands
of glory and light eternal
swiftly death carried them

Avathar Ojakkala, Finland
Avathar is the name of a dark, forgotten land in the south of Aman in between the mountains and the sea in J.R.R. Tolkien's
Middle-earth. Ungoliant used to dwell there before she and Melkor destroyed the Two Trees of Valinor.
The band was a two-piece (Witch King and Scatha) until summer 2005.
