Lyrics

                        Sight
Pale riders into the night
Galloping harder and faster
Through your dreaming

Wake
Walk towards the fire innate
Frostbitten soul below zero
Excitation

Are you remembering the sound?
Recall the shaking of the ground?

Pounding
Pounding
No Remorse
Lords of summer set on course

Pushing
Pushing
Horsemen Ride
Lords of summer, undenied

At last, the thawing has begun
Come trade your darkness for the sun
Melting the chill of winter’s turn
So celebrate and let your fires burn
The Lords of Summer have returned 

Straight
Light passes through, penetrate
It’s been a long lonely winter
Illumination

Bright
Bathe in the volume and light
Reanimated by fire
Transformation

Become the nexus of the sound
Become the shaking of the ground

Pounding
Pounding
No Remorse
Lords of summer set on course

Pushing
Pushing
Horsemen Ride
Lords of summer, undenied

At last, the thawing has begun
Come trade your darkness for the sun
Melting the chill of winter’s turn
So celebrate and let your fires burn
The Lords of Summer have returned 

Whoa, Pounding
Pounding
No Remorse
Lords of summer set on course

Whoa, Pushing
Pushing
Horsemen Ride
Lords of summer, undenied
Undenied

At last, the thawing has begun
Come trade your darkness for the sun
Melting the chill of winter’s turn
So celebrate and let your fires burn
The Lords of Summer have returned
