I rose from the ashes, the remains of a time set aside
The warrior of Eden, found by honor, these two words collide On and on and on, with glory he came, he saw, he conquered He gathered his armies, true he leads his Templars of steel They sought out the dragon, made the enemy bleed, made them kneel On and on and on, a legend unbent, unbowed, unbroken On and on and on, a story us born, a legacy reborn! Hammer high to the sky Follow the warrior and the king Call of Hector's Hymn Hammer high, amplify Hail to the warrior! Call of Hector's Hymn Along came the thunder and the hero was set to return We're haunted by fire, our spirit is now set to burn On and on and on, the fire and the flame will burn forever Still guarded by Templars, all the secrets of steel will remain Cause we are the keepers, and for us this is real, not a game On and on and on, we follow this need, we came, we conquered On and on and on, together we fight, together we will fall Hammer high to the sky Follow the warrior and the king Call of Hector's Hymn Hammer high, amplify Hail to the warrior! Call of Hector's Call of Hector's Hymn Hammer high to the sky Follow the warrior and the king Call of Hector's Hymn Hammer high, amplify Hail to the warrior! Call of Hector's Hymn 02. (r)Evolution
Heed the words, my son
Here is where my journey ends I pass my legacy, for you to carry on You are the future, I am the past These words of wisdom might be my very last The insurrection will show your direction After years of deceit The future's in deadlock the peal of the death clock A red-blooded brick in the wall Retrogression here in never land Carry through utopia (r)Evolution - rise and resist (r)Evolution - fight to exist (r)Evolution - a wrecking ball (r)Evolution - free for all Years of oppression, dark agony No evolution, the unborns dim destiny Retaliation unite our nations All give heed to the call You're the selected, preferred and elected A red-blooded brick in the wall Wave your banners here in never land Speak up for utopia (r)Evolution - rise and resist (r)Evolution - fight to exist (r)Evolution - a wrecking ball (r)Evolution - free for all Cause no sticks and stones Could ever break my bones Nor their words Could ever quench my soul (r)Evolution - rise and resist (r)Evolution - fight to exist (r)Evolution - a wrecking ball (r)Evolution - free for all (r)Evolution - rise and resist (r)Evolution - fight to exist (r)Evolution - a wrecking ball (r)Evolution - free for all 03. Bushido
Screaming and twisting
He's pounding his sword to the ground A soul made of fire A heart made of solid steel, fear the sound Guided by courage The fear of eternal disgrace The spirits of daring The trail of his life brought fail to embrace Trapped in the corner, hell or paradise Forever failure or self-sacrifice I'm a warrior, I am In the rising sun I stand My true colours shining bright Inside aeonian flames Winding and turning He's seeking a path to survive The hunter's the hunted The specter within will soon come alive The spirit of bearing by seven diverges unite Never surrender, be ready to kill When killing is right Shame and dishonor, the wrath of the sword Beyond all bearings, the honor restored I'm a warrior, I am In the rising sun I stand My true colours shining bright Inside aeonian flames I'm a warrior, I am I'm a soldier under command In the setting sun I'll carry on The code of the warrior soul Honour, courage and rectitude Tempered by ancient wisdom One law, one life in solitude Live by the code, die by the sword I'm a warrior, I am In the rising sun I stand My true colours shining bright Inside aeonian flames I'm a warrior, I am In the rising sun I stand My true colours shining bright Inside aeonian flames I'm a warrior, I am I'm a soldier under command In the setting sun I'll carry on The code of the warrior soul This is the way! 04. Live Life Loud
Many times this story has been told
A legendary tale, a fable, brave and bold Now your blood begins to boil Turn the crank of all the toil Raise your fist and yell, born again Live life loud Live life loud Live life loud Caught up in a maze nowhere to go Suppressed by powers endless deep of pain and woe Come on, break your inner chains Feel the power in your veins Raise your fist and yell, born again Live life loud Live life loud Live life loud Now your blood begins to boil Turn the crank of all the toil Raise your fist and cry out loud, born again Live life loud Live life loud Live life loud Live life loud Live life loud Live life loud Live life loud 05. Ex Inferis
On a dusty shelf, buried over ground
In the corner of the attic Where the bats come out and play Oh, they linger on Preserved, embraced in silence A script, a tale, kept from the light of day The fear of God A recital of a story only for the strong to find As you kneel down, you feel the cold wind blow Kill the switch, lock all the exits The curse, the spell, the words begin to glow The sun is silent Nine circles, the passage into the abyss Ex inferis, remember my name Ex inferis, demon from hell Abandon hope as you step inside The rebellion of angels Who reside these darkened shores Oh, waist deep in ice Surrounded by the fire The purgatory gate, nowhere to go This is your calling Malicious and violent, the circles of hell Limbo, lust and gluttony Rage out of control Greed and anger, heresy The price to cleanse thy soul Ex inferis, remember my name Ex inferis, demon from hell Ex inferis, remember my name Ex inferis, demon from hell All for one, but none for all Enslaved, we will succumb Violence, fraud, no kingdom come Reborn in treachery Ex inferis, remember my name Ex inferis, demon from hell Ex inferis, remember my name Ex inferis, demon from hell Ex inferis 06. We Won't Back Down
Silence, we have sworn
The oath, protect the earth, the sun and moon My precious friends United we stand 'till the end The vision, future's demand Has been written in the palm of our hands When we charge the storm clouds amass Cause the ace of swords will lead on this glorious day Hold your heads high Reach for the sky Never surrender We won't back down The power within Our remedy for sin The true life defenders We won't back down Battles, we have won We bled, but never once we've fallen down Form dusk 'till dawn Standing with our mighty swords drawn The future lies straight ahead Our dreams within reach, not mislead We are here, true warriors on the line Forever we'll be the sun in the tarot deck of cards Hold your heads high Reach for the sky Never surrender We won't back down The power within Our remedy for sin The true life defenders We won't back down Cause the ace of swords will lead on this glorious day Hold your heads high Reach for the sky Never surrender We won't back down The power within Our remedy for sin The true life defenders We won't back down We won't back down We won't back down We won't back down, we are partners in crime We are true life defenders on earth 07. Winter Is Coming
The passion of broken hearts, the passion of pain
Flames of the mortal world, the fire still burns Out of the dark, the winter is coming The passion of broken souls, their passion is pain Forever crying, forever dead Out of the dark, the winter is coming Out of the dark, the winter is near I am lost in confusion I am trapped between worlds I'm a wolf on the prowl in the night Take the black, you win or you die First of the ancient men, the bloodline is strong A star from beyond the wall will rescue us all? Out of the dark, the winter is coming Out of the dark, the winter is here 08. Origins
Once upon a time not far away
We all swore the oath to seize the day Moving on at the speed of light Still united, undivided We're brothers in arms searching for gold and glory Stay true to your heart, come follow, heed the call But nothing's forever, no nothing at all Come inside, true templars of the world Raise your voice, let's speak for the unheard On and on the story must go on Running free we always will be We are what we are and we always strive for glory Together as one we shine like the sun Beyond the divine we're soaring Shining on so glorious, the bloodline of true warriors Fighting for the right to be; part of the legacy Searching for the rainbow's end The gold awaits for you my friend Courage is your guiding star And it will take you far Shining on so glorious, the bloodline of true warriors Fighting for the right to be; part of the legacy Searching for the rainbow's end The gold awaits for you my friend Courage is your guiding star And it will take you far 09. Tainted Metal
Hear the screams from down below
The cry of the raven, the demons and wizards In league with the dark Feed the fire nourish the flames The hammer is pounding the steel in its grace By via crucis, embraced Born out of wedlock, the spirit is lost Ordeal of ingestion, the way of the cross Oh it's... Tainted metal Tainted metal No return nowhere to go The wands of the wizards call demons to fetter Their heart broken souls Face the fire, defiling the steel The blood of the heathens, their guts and their gore Weakens the sword to the core Born out of wedlock, the future came fast Trial by fire, iconoclast Oh it's... Tainted metal Tainted metal Oh it's... Tainted metal Tainted metal Blackens the power of steel Born out of wedlock, the spirit is lost Ordeal of ingestion, ordeal of the cross Oh it's... Tainted metal Tainted metal Oh it's... Tainted metal Tainted metal Blackens the power of steel Oh... Oh it's... Tainted metal Oh it's... Tainted metal Oh it's... Tainted metal 10. Evil Incarnate
Who's there
Walking the shadows I fear I am in deep The nightmares they won't disappear Leave me alone Lay down Lay down your arms on the ground You've been sent here To champion for the unbound, yeah Satan's scheme falls into place An evil grin upon his face No fear The duels about to begin I've got a black hand The hand of the dead man can win, yeah Satan slips another ace A thousand souls will fall from grace Evil incarnate, the son of man Lost to the great deceiver Evil incarnate, I failed the plan A new inception reigns Evil incarnate, the son of man Lost to the great deceiver Evil incarnate, I failed the plan A new inception reigns 11. Wildfire
Wildfire - wildfire - wildfire
I am the one running out of control I am faster than the speed of light There is a darkness surrounding my life And its claws gotta hold of my sight I'm leaving the past behind, wander off into the wild Pin down my future at last, moving on nowhere fast Like a wildfire Wildfire - wildfire - wildfire Hellbent for metal it clouded my mind Like a force of destruction and rage Possessed by possessions, it all choked me up I must fly bursting out of my cage I'm free, set at liberty, no chains are pinning me down My scornful eye takes me places, no one dares to go Like a wildfire Wildfire - wildfire - wildfire Wildfire - wildfire - wildfire Bathe in the rays of the sun Feeding my inner flame Why are we wasting our time Watching horizons go down Standing there patient in one fine line Wildfire - wildfire - wildfire Wildfire - wildfire - wildfire |
