Swords of Fury

Edge of my knife
End of your life
Spectacle of gore
Devilish grin
Walls closing in
Let slip the dogs of war
Chaos in tow
Skull-splitting blow
Ripped from the womb
Cold staring eye
Fire in the sky
Already doomed
Executioner, final judge and jury
You will bow to me and my swords of fury
Chaos in tow
Skull-splitting blow
Ripped from the womb
Cold staring eye
Fire in the sky
Already doomed
Mysteries unfold
Horrors untold
Crucified thieves
Lay all to waste
Burn all with haste
Violence bereaves

No man can stop
The head of the ram
The point of the spear
The primal beast I am
Six hundred miles an hour
Hammer swung with mighty power
Freedom takes me home
Stronger than unyielding stone
No man can tame
The hunt nor the kill
Hardened by pain
Sharpened by will

The Forge

Ten thousand nights
Still, windless sea
Mallet now strikes
Black hand of steel
Stoned sleep undone
Saltwater breath
Sea-beast has come
Ocean of death
Hellion
Rebellion
Banishment
Malcontent

Bastard, Coward, Liar

Stranger than fiction, darker than death
Cattle herded to their doom
Barrels of bullshit, proud and grotesque
Fascists in the war room
Ego and madness, wrath and deceit
Some lessons can't be learned
Spewing out words that are stuck on repeat
Let's make the tyrant burn
('Cause he's a)
Bastard! Visage of the apocalypse
Coward! Bottom feeding nepotist
Liar! On your words you will drown
The hammer of justice will strike you down
Disciple of darkness, soul-less elite
Knuckle-dragging creeper
Holy ghost harkens, brain incomplete
Face of the reaper
[SPOKEN]
Freedom fighters. Torchbearers of revolution, hear me. Generations of the future will inherit our every flaw, our crises. For their sake we must topple our nefarious leaders from their top-heavy pedestals, exposing their every fraud. The power of the ideal is the impetus driving us toward inevitable revolution, It is the secret weapon of the masses. No cage may contain it, no obstacle may discourage it, no force may kill it. Ideals are invincible!
The chains you bind us with, we will break
The cells you confine us with, we will escape
The walls you divide us with, we will topple
The systems you kill us with, with will throttle

Face the Tundra

|
Vicious, snarling hounds
Prepare the frozen ground
Venturing from caves
Becoming winter's slaves
The tundra you'll face
Death's cold embrace
Grind sharp your spears
Mortifying fears
Grey landscapes defiled
Harshness of the wild
Ride!

Seek out the shaman
Of jaguar birthed
Harvesting bounty
From all-giving Earth
And all ye mighty
Look down on his works
Seek out the shaman
Of jaguar birthed
Born of earth and mud
Spill the sacred blood
Exalt the shaman
Beholder of sights
Herbalist chanting tongues
In the night
Mastering time
With his ancestral rites
Exalt the shaman
Beholder of sights
Long live the shaman
Holy's his hand
Stoned mover
Of the oceans and sand
Brother of the mountain
Father of man
Long live the shaman
Holy's his hand

A Whole New Way to Die
05:05

No remorse for the sick and the sickening
Black road ahead leads into darkness thickening
Defy your destiny, forget which foot is leading
Your life's a memory when you're broken and bleeding
In such darkness there is light
Soar with grace in eternal flight
While you try to live your lives
We've found a whole new way to die
A whole new way to die
Now in darkness the funeral dirge is sounded
Awful truth unfolds as your body is grounded
The fear of death is poison with no leaving
So live your life purged of doubt, while you're still breathing

Excarnated by Wolves
04:19
|
|
||
|
Overcast, cold grey skies
Arctic predators with soul-piercing eyes
Long obsolete anatomy
Piece by piece canines deconstruct me
Take my body, take my name
Bury me in history, throw me in the flame
I've been torn apart, by teeth eviscerated
I have been excarnated

The Grey

These chains, these chains
When will they break their hold?
When my body's dead and cold
Dead and cold
These hands, these hands
What weapons do they wield?
Swords smashed on the righteous shield
Righteous shield

Helm's Deep
06:30
|
|
||
|
At the foot of the iron mountain
Beneath its marble halls
Despots in cold damnation
Seek to lay waste to all
Helm's Deep is calling
The empire is falling
Red ships on a sea of silver
Dead kings entombed in gold
Archers poise their deadly arrows
Swords forged in the demon's mold
Helm's Deep is waiting
No time for hesitating
These chains, these chains
When will they break their hold?
When my soul's in aether
My body's dead and cold
These eyes, these eyes
What victories will they see?
A glimmer in the east
Salvation of the free
