1.
Lost among the sounds on funerary grounds Alone with the relics of a dream And I'll bring you all down with me Gone, gone are the days Cold, cold is the blade And no, the memories won't fade away And I can't let it go the nightmares won't let me forget what I have known I've seen all that I can take I've done all I ever could.... you're Gone, gone are the days Cold, cold is the blade And know, the memories will never, ever fade away
2.
In the sun In your dreams it's just begun to take shape, manifest in another way Portals open with bonds unbroken On the edge On the boundaries that we tread In the real world Gone astray in a waking dream Portals open with bonds unbroken

about

BY THE HORNS (Original Soundtrack) is a two-track EP by Arctic Sleep. It is inspired by the Scout Comics series of the same name by writer Markisan Naso and artist Jason Muhr, published by Scout Comics.

The science fiction/fantasy comic book, BY THE HORNS, is about a warrior named Elodie who vows to kill every last unicorn on the continent of Solothus for trampling her husband. But to make unicorns extinct she’ll need to battle four wind sorcerers who are extracting magic from all the mystical creatures they can find.
