*Lyrics* :
If we gonna die, ain't no tears to cry
Our souls will carry on in the morning sun
A light is shining bright, God is our guide
Human being's gone, no soul is on the run
A feeling of desire, calm and not on fire
A feeling deep inside, everything's alright
Safety in God's hands
In a promised land
Trust never rust, free at last
Never rust, free at last

Dwarfs ♰Rest in Peace♰
Battle axe, all is gone
Glide through the night
Floating like wood in the water
Shine like the sun
Never cry, never die, shining bright

Dwarfs ♰Rest in Peace♰
Battle axe, all is gone
Glide through the night
Floating like wood in the water
Shine like the sun
Never cry, never die, shining bright

One day you will see that we have to go
A light appear to you and take you home
Where we all will be, to a place where everyone is free
Trust never rust, free at last
Never rust, free at last

Dwarfs ♰Rest in Peace♰
Souls are not on the run
Glide through the night
Floating like wood in the water
Shine like the sun
Never cry, never die, shining bright
An everlasting light
And God is our guide

*About Minotaurus* :

Minotaurus are a folk metal ensemble hailing from Aschaffenburg, Germany, known for their powerful fusion of Celtic folk melodies and driving power metal. Drawing inspiration from acts such as , , , and , the band has crafted a sound that is both epic and earthy. Since their formation in 1994, Minotaurus have showcased multiple vocalists and a diverse range of instruments—both acoustic and electric—that go beyond the boundaries of traditional metal.

After releasing two early demos, the band unveiled their debut album Path of Burning Torches in 1999. This was followed by the EPs Carnyx (2001) and The Silent Cave (2003), paving the way for their second full-length effort, Myth or Reality, in 2004. Subsequent releases included The Lonely Dwarf (2009) and The Call (2013), each further refining their rich, myth-laden sound. With the 2015 release of Insolubilis, the band grew into a seven-member formation, adding new dimensions to their sonic landscape.

In 2025, Minotaurus signed with NRT-Records, opening a new chapter in their enduring saga through the mythic worlds of folk and metal.
