And the gods beheld that the thunderwarriors fought hard and brave in the
"battle of metal". However, they wanted to challenge them once again. This test
was called the "battle of steel". In order to aid them in their holy quest it
was decided to bestow unto them four magic utensils.

So the gods called upon the old dwarf and the mighty wizard and told them what
they sought. The dwarf took the sword "Nothung", once belonging to "Siegfried
the dragon-slayer", fused and smithed from it's steel four shakels of metal.
The wizard created the same number of amulets from the skin of a black demon.
He then took the silver shaded blood of a dead unicorn from which he drew four
magic runes, each drenched with natural power.

The power and strength of a bear would be given to the bearer of the hammer
"giants death", the speed of a hunting hawk to the bearer of the bow "heart
hunter", the brutality of a lone wolf to the bearer of the axe "skullcrusher",
and the deafening roar of a black lion to the bearer of the sword "souleater".

Then the dwarf mounted the shakels of metal on the amulets whilst reciting
ancient words of magic power. Thereafter the amulets were presented to the
dragon lords, who brought them to midgard, home of the thunderwarriors. They
recieved this gift and a mighty power flushed through their veins. It was the
power of magic-the magic of steel.

Suddenly thunder rocked the silence, lightning crushed the roof of the hall,
and the two mightiest gods of valhalla -Thor and Odin- stood on the stage. The
god of thunder held his hammer on high. Odin wailed his spear into the
audience. Any wimp present knew now that death was imminent. They disappeared
as quickly as they came.

In the blink of an eye the thunderwarriors conquered the stage: Once again they
would ride side by side with their legion of doom, under the sign of the
wizard, to their next test- the "battle of steel"... So they fought with the
power of metal and again were victorious. They devoured the hearts and spilled
the blood of their enemies. Their weapons found the hearts of all decievers and
liers, crushing their bodies to the ground. After the "battle of steel" was
over the ground was covered by a sea of blood. From that day on the four
thunderwarriors knew that they were forever bound by metal.

A hammer made of unbreakable stone
A bow made of black wood
With a string of white light
An axe made of silver, gold and diamonds
And a sword made of steel
Tempered in the sea of the gods

Hail the new lords, chosen by the dragon lords
Hail them, who are fighting with the weapons of the gods

Hammer, bow, axe and sword; see the weapons of the gods
Hammer, bow, axe and sword; feel the power of their lords

Hammer, bow, axe and sword; hammer, bow, axe and sword
Hammer, bow, axe and sword; hammer, bow, axe and sword
Hammer, bow, axe and sword; the weapons of the gods

A dwarf smithed these four eternal weapons
With the help of the wizard he gave them magic power
It was a small gift for the mighty gods
But for the thunderwarriors it was the gift of power

Hail the new lords, chosen by the dragon lords
Hail them, who are fighting with the weapons of the gods

Hammer, bow, axe and sword; see the weapons of the gods
Hammer, bow, axe and sword; feel the power of their lords

Hammer, bow, axe and sword; hammer, bow, axe and sword
Hammer, bow, axe and sword; hammer, bow, axe and sword
Hammer, bow, axe and sword; the weapons of the gods
Hail the new lords, chosen by the dragon lords
Hail them, who are fighting with the weapons of the gods

The land, gloomy and cold; death lies in the air
Human prisoners of the world; it's hopeless, grief and rage reign
But four brave warriors will rescue the world
They will fight against the darkness
Searching for the diamond of freedom

Warriors of the gods - you are ready to fight
Warriors of the gods - hold your weapons high
Warriors of the gods - ride faster than the wind
Warriors of the gods - to save the world

It's a long hard way, full of pain
Beforehand they ride into the uncertain
They kneel in front of a fire and plead for aid
Lightning and thunderstorm, a mighty creature appears
It gave them a sword made by the gods
A sword full of splendour and steel

Warriors of the gods - you are ready to fight
Warriors of the gods - hold your weapons high
Warriors of the gods - ride faster than the wind
Warriors of the gods - to save the world

Hear the wings of destiny preaching pain
The pain to live forever in the night

The bite will give you life, a life of a black demon
A demon straight from hell, his hell will be your home

White fangs, red eyes, dark wings, vampires
On dark wings they fly through the black night

On dark wings they fly through the night
Vampires from hell - looking for a bite
On dark wings they fly through the night
Vampires from hell - frightened by the light

You crave the taste of blood, blood is now your life
Darkness is what you're giving to your virgin victims

Life is just a dream as is the road to your death
But your death is not eternal so forever you will dream

White fangs, red eyes, dark wings, vampires
On dark wings they fly through the black night

It's a long way, a dark way, trees without leaves
The moon struggles to shine, it radiates blood red
Fear, she feels death but it's the only way
To reach the gates of the wizard, the border between the worlds

Now she's arrived, the mighty gates in front
Little creatures observe her from the other side
It begins to rain, crying and exhausted she falls to her knees

Mighty wizard - open the gates
Mighty wizard - open your world for me
Open your world for a lost soul
Mighty wizard - open the gates
Mighty wizard - open your world for me
Open your world for a lost soul

Warriors of death decimated her hole family
They drank their whole blood and ate their raw hearts
She cried and requested help
Revenge and sadness reflecting in her eyes
The mighty wizard comes out of the dark
Thunderstorms struck the village
With a dark voice he swears revenge

Mighty wizard - open the gates
Mighty wizard - open your world for me
Open your world for a lost soul
Mighty wizard - open the gates
Mighty wizard - open your world for me
Open your world for a lost soul

Like a tornado we cross the land
Metal destruction is our command
With power and glory we fight for our right
The weapons of the gods are at all time by our side

Armed with steel we fear no enemy
Blessed by the gods we have no agony

See our wounds are bleeding, we take our last breath
But on our faces lies a smile, 'cause it's a nice day to die
a nice day to die, it's a nice day to die, a nice day to die

Thor and Odin will give us the sign
Thunder and lightning in the sky
They'll call us to battle, they'll call the LOD (legion of doom)
They'll call the einheriors to fight at their side

Armed with steel we fear no enemy
Blessed by the gods we have no agony

See our wounds are bleeding, we take our last breath
But on our faces lies a smile, 'cause it's a nice day to die
a nice day to die, it's a nice day to die, a nice day to die

Metal rules the world
Metal is a force
It's more than a style
It's our life

Come in our arms
Brothers and sisters of steel
Stand together with us
Your sword will prevail

It doesn't matter what you wear
It doesn't matter who you are
The only thing that matters
Is that there is metal in your heart

Gladiators of steel, steel will prevail
Fighting for the metal sound
Gladiators of steel, steel will prevail
Fighting for the heavy metal sound

Our hearts will beat together
To the metal sound
We are proud to be in metal
We are proud to hear it loud

Gladiators of the world
Fight with us for metal
Bang your head of steel
To the heavy sound
It doesn't matter what you wear
It doesn't matter who you are
The only thing that matters
Is that there is metal in your heart

Gladiators of steel, steel will prevail
Fighting for the metal sound
Gladiators of steel, steel will prevail
Fighting for the heavy metal sound

Have you ever seen a unicorn in the dawn?
A shining creature of light
Should you have seen a unicorn in the dawn
You will never forget it's vision of light

But then one day dark creatures crossed the land
Aiming to destroy the beauty of life
They saw the lovely unicorns in the dawn
The white pearl of nature layed in their hands
They shot their black arrows at the unicorns
With but a few surviving this hell slaughter

Have you ever seen a unicorn in the dawn?
A shining creature of light
Should you have seen a unicorn in the dawn
You will never forget it's vision of light

Hence, the unicorns disappeared from sight forever
Where are they, where do they live now
Open your heart and you will see them across the world
In every flower, every animal their spirit lives on
Behold their spirits surrounding you
You may kill their bodys but you can't kill their souls

Have you ever seen a unicorn in the dawn?
A shining creature of light
Should you have seen a unicorn in the dawn
You will never forget it's vision of light

The battle will come to you
Will come into your dreams
Fight against them all
Heavy metal rules

Together we are strong
Together we are proud
We come as warriors from valhalla

Fight the fight, believe in metal
Fight the fight, believe in swords of steel
Fight the fight, believe in metal
Fight the fight, believe in swords of steel

At dusk will be the time
For us to show the world
That metal rules for ever and ever
We will be victorius
There is no doubt
Together we will win the battle

Fight the fight, believe in metal
Fight the fight, believe in swords of steel
Fight the fight, believe in metal
Fight the fight, believe in swords of steel

We saddle our horses 'cause we must fight again
Liars and betrayers anew stand in our way
We drink the wine of anger mixed with our blood
A last look at our weapons and a prayer to our gods

We're made of power, we're made for war
We are made of thunder and steel

Spill, spill, spill; spill the blood of our enemys
Die, die, die; enemy die
Spill, spill, spill; spill the blood of our enemys
Die, die, die; enemy die
Enemy die

Like cruel dark knights we are hungry for a fight
We'll conquer every stage, enemies feel our rage
You cannot buy our mercy with gold, silver or money
But you can kiss our asses and eat our stinking shit

We're made of power, we're made for war
We are made of thunder and steel

Spill, spill, spill; spill the blood of our enemys
Die, die, die; enemy die
Spill, spill, spill; spill the blood of our enemys
Die, die, die; enemy die
Enemy die

Spill, spill, spill
Spill, spill, spill

Spill, spill, spill; spill the blood of our enemys
Die, die, die; enemy die
Spill, spill, spill; spill the blood of our enemys
Die, die, die; enemy die
Enemy die

Spill, spill, spill

We will spill the blood of our enemies

They are two different nations
Born on the same land
For years they wait for the battle
The descision between life or death

Six days they have to prepare their weapons
Armed with sword, axe and steel
Now it's time to saddle the horses
Thousands of warriors entail

Fight, fight - to the glory of gods
Fight, fight - for their brothers and sisters
Fight, fight - brave warriors fight for victory

The gods of war stand behind both
The enemies stand forth
One man holds his sword high
The battle now begins

Blood spurts, heads roll, decaying flesh lay amidst
Steel on steel and stone on stone
There is no way out, but still they fight
The last drop of blood they shall give

Fight, fight - to the glory of gods
Fight, fight - for their brothers and sisters
Fight, fight - brave warriors fight for victory

Fight, fight - to the glory of gods
Fight, fight - for their brothers and sisters
Fight, fight - brave warriors fight for victory
