Morgul Blade - Fell Sorcery Abounds lyrics



Tracks



01. He Who Sits Upon The Black Throne Of Angmar / The Morgul Blade

Forged in Angmar, far to the north
The dreaded Witch King draws it forth
A wretched blade,
Forged from hate,
To become a wraith
Is your fate
Cunning design breaks the tip
Leaving behind a seeking chip
To your heart, the shard proceeds
Your soul withers like dying leaves

Nazgul hunt with ill intent
Try to flee but your will is spent
Your body seized
You are afraid
Your flesh is pierced by the Morgul Blade

Seek the Weed to ease the pain
Athelas herb will slow the drain
Numb the wound
Stem the bleed
But nothing stops the Nazgul’s greed
Witch King claims what he was after
The air is pierced with silent laughter
You can’t ignore
Sauron’s call
Forever enslaved as a nameless thrall

02. A Last Waltz of Gevaudan

Under a full moon glow
Wafts the eaves of Gevaudan
The crosses bear the names
Of one hundred slain

Tonight, we hunt!
The torches light our way
The Beast, we seek!
Our silver swords in hand
Don’t stop to rest!
No quarter!
The wicked will be cleansed

Burn
kill
end this abomination

The trail of blood
Guides our righteous hand
The light of day
Has strayed
So very far away
We sing
Our song
A last waltz
Of Gevaudan

Through the lavender fields
And on top the sun soaked crags
Our quarry, ahead it does not tire
A wolfman’s head we do desire
Sing us a song Of Gevaudan
Aim be true and steel be bright
It will stalk under the moon at night
Silver bullets bound for glory
In victory they tell our story
Sing us a song of Gevaudan

03. In the Grip Of The Dark Lord

As the cold winds blow
In the dark of the night
In the soulless mountain range
Where there is no light
In the willows, the valleys, the glens,
The men were marching on
Resolved to fight with honor
They know their end has come

Atop a great white beast
The general he looks on
What he sees will never leave him
The broken, the barren, the poor

“Do I lead these men to death?”
“That they don’t deserve?’
He turns his head
Sounds the horn
Silent, they march as one

They pray to gods and kings
That they may survive
What they do not know
No man remains alive

In the grip of the Dark Lord’s hand
There they make their stand

And so on this day, a battle they did wage
Many fought and many died
For the realm to be saved

04. Sons Of The Night

We are the Kosmic Legion
We are the Sons of the Night
There are so few who can stop us
There are so many who try

Man and Demon before us
Torment in their eyes
The blades they shine in the Darkness
Alike, they meet their demise

05. Oak In The Mist

You appeared like an oak in the mist
Fleeting, yet there all along
I captured but only a glimpse
Ensnared by what I saw
You left in the quiet of autumn
As do the leaves of the oak
You left before dead of winter
Before men can shield their hearts

You left me alone in the forest
Forlorn as always I’ve been
Crippled by dreams and delusions
Leaning against the old oak

06. The Five Will Ride At Dawn

The shadows lay across the land
Where we spur our horses on
Swords be sharp and helms be blessed
The five will ride at dawn

From the west in the castle of gold
They’ve seen much battle
Hear the prophecy of old
Has come to pass
Woe to the unbelievers

Witness the cities burning now
Laying waste to this earth
There the guardians made a vow
That their power shall preserve
The five will ride at dawn

Demons walk. Amongst men
No warning, no sign at all
The hammer went smack
No use turning back
Daybreak has come
The five will ride at dawn

On the mist veiled hills with the great trees upon
Power received and lives are given
Mortal men shall depart the path
The five will ride at dawn

Judgement day and the serpent arrives
A fell beast preserved in time
The blade is drawn
The night is long
The five will ride at dawn

07. The Beacons Must Be Lit!

Horns are sounding! A hero’s return!
He brings the news the king was dreading
Beyond the veil, the Night is calling!
Fell Magick Abounds! The realm is falling

The darkness now is riding forth
We’ve no power to repel
10,000 strong in black plate steel
They’ll send us all to hell

The braziers must be lit
The drums of war are beating
Our allies heed our call
The beacons must be lit

The darkness now is riding forth
We’ve no power to repel
10,000 strong in black plate steel
They’ll send us all to hell

Footsteps crunch into dead leaves beneath my feet
The torch lights my trail
Into the wilderness
Embers ascend into the dark sky above my head
I scale these palisades
Of pine, birch and oak

No man has been before me
On these forgotten cliffs
I will die a saviour
No man shall forget my sacrifice
Pale flickers in the moonlight
Around the kingdom now
A blaze on the mountaintop
An effigy of iron, blood, and man

08. Blood Has Been Spilled This Night

[Instrumental]

09. Fell Sorcery Abounds

A wretched plain
A wretched world
a place that bears no dreams
a twisted land
of sacrifice
and nothing is
as it seems

pray to the gods now
tell them what you've done
the spirits they will hear you
you are the chosen one

born to fight the wicked
born to light the flame
a warrior so holy
hallowed be thy name

pray to the gods now
tell them what you've done
the spirits they will hear you
you are the chosen one

dark wizard now approaches
in a corridor of flame
his eyes illuminated
his power you must tame

fight slay
cut them down where they stand
hack slice
until the end of time
spells hex
bring the curse upon there heads

behold

fell sorcery abounds
