Animal or god, which am I?
Scream forever eternal cry Bathe in the fury from ages unknown Suffer the blow that kisses the blow Chaos, calling Chaos, calling Wounds weep Weary souls fall on dead-end earth Watch them crawl Blood and thunder, a ring in the ear The call of chaos, stronger than fear Chaos, calling Chaos, calling Darkness, falling Chaos, calling Wounds weep Weary souls fall on dead-end earth I watch them crawl The call of chaos, stronger than fear This iron age has turned to rust Hope fallen to ash and dust The end of time is calling Our world into darkness falling Chaos, calling Chaos, calling Chaos, calling Chaos, calling 02. Death Dealer
Thunder
Shattering bone Raging fury Eyes as hard as stone Power A murderous rage Bloodlust A fire in his brain Blood Running dark Thunder The blow that finds the mark Fearsome His face unknown The dealer Of death has finally come Death dealer Lord of shadow Lord of fear Death dealer Thunder Shattering bone Raging fury Eyes as hard as stone Fearsome The dealer Of death has finally come Death dealer Lord of shadow Lord of fear Death dealer 03. Beneath The Eyes Of Mars
From the time of the seven kings
Til the tyrants iron rule Fate written with the stroke of steel Broken spear in bloody pool Roman will must be fulfilled Drumbeat on a march to war The slave collar for those not killed Their hollow screams ring evermore Beneath the eyes of mars Red orb glaring down Beneath the eyes of mars Tribute: bloody ground Eagles lead us to glory Ever the victor writes the story Gradiavus, blood drunk god Lead your sons in endless war Ultor, hands nailed to the senate door Beneath the eye of mars Brave deeds must be seen Lest the victory stand incomplete The blasphemy of swords kept clean Beneath the eyes of mars Red orb glaring down Beneath the eyes of mars Tribute: bloody ground Eagles lead us to glory Ever the victor writes the story Fate written with the stroke of steel As we march in endless war Blood and thunder In legend live forevermore 04. The Doom Of Aceldama
Better not to be born at all
Is what the prince said A faded rainbow falls My guts burst as I hang For 30 shackles I became the bastard one On the horizon The beast stands tall Without my damnation The tempter would have won But I bore this curse To be forever his The angels cried With a kiss he smiled On the field of blood Belial knelt down Forever I'll dwell in the field of fire Forever I'll dwell in this land of doom Whatever the price I'll pay it all Dark is the abyss Lonely this doom Oh why Why father Why am I The one of all sin My name is cursed forever Oh why Why father Why am I the bastard one When can I be forgiven? 05. Age Of Sorrow
Instrumental
06. The Bringer Of War
A rage forged in wrathful fires
Flame plagued skies: funeral pyres The heavy hand to silence liars The wolf is off the chain Suffer no guilt no crippling fears Their blood will wash the pain of years Still the voices one does hear Deep inside the brain On vultures wings now ride Deaths black doves stalk the sky On the wind the carrion cry Fly forever; never to die Magic are the beams they ride Through the eons death on high Lost souls ere beg, why Doomed forever they cannot die Let slip the dogs of war Boundless hunger they cannot ignore Jaws flecked with gore Wrack your very core Hunger evermore Fear the bringer of war 07. Descent Into Madness
We will plunge into this dark city
Fallen masonry all around Gave upon the statues of the Old Ones What we men of science have found On the eve of dawn at the end of the world Where souls are cold and should never fly We witnessed the one true unholy terror The city of the damned reached forever high Beneath the world, blood cold ice On pale white earth, descent into madness The darkness set beyond the horizon Pillars that reached straight to hell We saw pure evil in this pre-human age By alchemy, blood and thunder we fell What lays beyond, blood and ice Blasphemous city, descent into madness Descent, descent, descent into madness Descent, descent, descent into madness At the mountains of madness, you will descend into hell At the mountains of madness, you will forever dwell 08. Iron Hammer
Bastards will pay
The four horsemen ride Screaming for vengeance Run for your life Over the mountain Into the void Gods of wraths (howling) Built to destroy Learning to die Die by the sword Flash of the blade The onslaught of the hordes Gods of wrath (howling) For power and might Demon king, riding on through the night 09. The Mist In The Mourning
How sorry the man with no home of his own
Limping forever, sorry and stoned Clotted up blood that hangs on the bone And a withered dead voice that ever does moan So sorry he cannot see his friends here today So sorry he is gone along his way Go down to the church, maybe you will pray And send him some love to speed him away How dark is it now How lonely the day And none can know The that has been paid Grim is the voice that calls you to die He knows no one will be there to cry Alone on his way, gone down to die With a sad, sad soul, I have to ask why But my soul is worried and my heart can't rest I have too many roads and too many rests I will see you on that cold lonely shore And that day we will mourn, never no more 10. Blood And Thunder
Blood and thunder
The call of death One step closer Final breath Going under Down you are laid Torn asunder Debts are paid Blood and thunder Tears you cry Heart eternal Goes down to die Hammer has fallen Down you go Blood and thunder Fatal blow Blood and thunder Final strike Final warning Head on spike Force unbroken Your strength fails Driven backwards Coffin nails |
