[Verse 1]
For their freedom, we are fighting One click from the trail Suffer shell shock, peace in deadlock Immoral carnage prevail We are soldiers on the line And this is what we do Rolling thunder, kill them all Come hell or high water [Chorus] Never forgive, never forget Never forgive, never forget [Verse 2] Just embrace it, run the gauntlet Down south of the Ho' Guns are blazing, hell is raising Call for Agent O Combat's fast and furious Behind the enemy lines The dragon lady fuels the fire Rain hell from the skies [Chorus] Never forgive, never forget Never forgive, never forget [Bridge] You can kill ten of mine For every one I kill of yours Can you smell the scent of victory falling from the sky? Hey LBJ, how many kids did you kill today? [Guitar solo] [Pre-Chorus] Combat's fast and furious Behind the enemy lines The dragon lady fuels the fire Rain hell from the skies [Chorus] Never forgive, never forget Never forgive, never forget Never forgive, never forget Never forgive, never forget 02. Dominion
In solitudes society
The evil breeds, autocracy (Dominion) The fall of man, no son of God Can tame the flames, welcome to Hell Oh Lucifer, almighty one The overlord of Babylon (Dominion) Apostles' creed, the demon seed The mammon rules the misery At the final battle On the first day of war Where angels die, and legends rise Only one man survives Serve in heaven or reign in hell Find your Paradise Lost Rise, awake or forever be Fallen in the abyss The purge of God, banished to Hell Angelic hordes and a warrior (Dominion) The chosen one will brave the storm Awake, arise and claim the throne At the final battle On the third day of war A warrior shaped demon lord Came to conquer them all Serve in heaven or reign in hell Find your Paradise Lost Rise, awake or forever be Fallen in the abyss Serve in heaven or reign in hell Find your Paradise Lost Rise, awake or forever be Fallen welcome to Hell Serve in heaven or reign in hell Find your Paradise Lost Rise, awake or forever be Fallen in the abyss (Dominion) 03. Testify
[Intro]
Testify, testify Testify, testify [Verse 1] I'm electric, energetic Quite high on life's epiphanies I don't need no two-time weasel To judge my way based on their bigotry [Pre-Chorus] Rattle the cage, time to taunt the cobras Tell me, what tongue do you speak? And where is your almighty God in great need? [Chorus] Down on your knees (Testify) Pray your souls to keep (Testify) Now the wolf's at the gate (Testify) To seal your true life and fate (Testify) [Verse 2] Be the prophet, the creator And master your own universe False crusaders, God's dictators Reclaim the fate, our freedom, lift the curse [Pre-Chorus] Rattle the cage, waiting for the rapture Free me from your tainted deeds Infected, primeval, retarded beliefs [Chorus] Down on your knees (Testify) Pray your souls to keep (Testify) Now the wolf's at the gate (Testify) To seal your true life and fate (Testify) [Guitar solo] [Bridge] On the first day of man He invented this sham Fabrications forged by evil, spiteful, twisted minds [Pre-Chorus] Rattle the cage, waiting for the answer Tell me now, how do you plea? And where is your almighty God in great need? [Chorus] Down on your knees (Testify) Pray your souls to keep (Testify) Now the wolf's at the gate (Testify) To seal your true life and fate (Testify) 04. One Against The World
The night's riding in as the lights go down
It's time, heed the call Psyched up expectations erupting in us all Playing to win, now let the madness begin Templars of the world Victorious immortals Thunder up your souls Rebel and shout out loud We are what we are and we do whatever we want to do Metal heart crusaders, our dreams we must pursue In for the kill, charged by the power of will Templars of the world Victorious immortals Thunder up your souls Rebel and shout out loud Templars of the world Victorious immortals Thunder up your souls Rebel and shout out loud Ante up your game The modern time crusaders Power up your immortal souls Be one against the world We are one We are the one 05. (We Make) Sweden Rock
I remember the day when the winter came
Back in nineteen-sixty-nine With hearts made of stone, they paved A solid one way to glory The roar from the north shook the universe Right out of its solitude The sign of the times, they said As we praised the birth of our story The power inside, our source of creation Far beyond the sun they hear our singing swords Sweden Rock (We Make) Sweden Rock Bringing the hammer down Three are the crowns in our banner They were breaking the chains long before the storm Play Judas, to get along The traitors and renegades Smoldered the soil of our fathers No lay down your guns raise the hammers high Together we are one A true life worth fighting for Cause this ain't no dying illusion A call from the grave where flames are eternal In the land of fog and mist we carry on Sweden Rock (We Make) Sweden Rock Bringing the hammer down Three are the crowns in our banner (We Make) Sweden Rock (We Make) Sweden Rock Sons of the northern light Forever let your strings cry out Ohh Sweden Rock (We Make) Sweden Rock (We Make) Bringing the hammer down Three are the crowns in our banner (We Make) Sweden Rock (We Make) Sweden Rock Sons of the northern light Forever let your strings cry out We make sweden rock 06. Second To One
[Verse 1]
You can never escape from your heart That inner guide, the voice in the dark Stop and listen just once in a while To what it has to say I remember the day when we met Your love was true, my life was a mess I knew fate was a one way street But we were meant to be [Chorus 1] You're my honest cause Never ending strive to become better than I am You're the sweetest sound The note that explains the symphony [Verse 2] I know I can't hide anymore My head is up, my feet on the floor And you know I cannot lie anymore When I look into your eyes Fear of failure will all bring us down To darkened places where dreams go to die I pretend to be strong, but I'm weak You make my life complete [Chorus 2] Everything must change yet remain the same But nothing stays forever I will take your pain You are my everlasting flame [Refrain] My second to one [Bridge] Oh, I cannot lie No, I cannot hide when I look into your eyes Everything I say Everything I do, I do for you I will resurrect I have found myself, a knight in shining armour When you call my name I will be your needle for the pain [Refrain] My second to one 07. Scars Of A Generation
[Intro]
Now listen to this, my friends [Verse 1] On the first day of creation we were electrified The rebel generation born to amplify The call of the wild was burning inside Shattered minds across the universe couldn't bare the thunder Second day was dawning, we were immortalized The clash of metal sounded and no one could defy And out the blue, the storm broke loose And the green-eyed monster sang the blues to choke our flame [Chorus] By blood scars will pyre A generation lost and mocked and scorned Cleansed by fire, restored [Verse 2] On the last day came the winter, so crystal clear and brand But deep inside, the fire was not ready to face the end We kept our eyes shut, awaited the dark To rebellion, the hypocrisy, resurrecting the stars [Chorus] By blood scars will pyre A generation lost and mocked and scorned Cleansed by fire, we will be reborn [Bridge] This is our destiny, all that was meant to be The passion of the sacred fire is burning deep inside [Guitar solo] [Chorus] By blood scars will pyre A generation lost and mocked and scorned Cleansed by fire, restored By blood scars will pyre A generation lost and mocked and scorned Cleansed by fire, we will be reborn 08. Dead By Dawn
[Verse 1]
The board's on the table All the candles alive Time to wake up our senses Build the bridges to the other side Take your place in the circle And keep your eyes shut Invoking the darkness Never taunt or goad the spirit world [Pre-Chorus 1] The circle is solid, unbroken The first of the wonders outspoken Tell me when I'm gonna die [Chorus] You will be dead by dawn When the bells of hell strike six, six, six You will be dead by dawn Say your prayers and grab your crucifix [Verse 2] There's a spirit among us As evil evil can be A paranormal encounter Draw the number of infinity I've been with you forever Walked by your side You wanted an answer Better watch out what you're asking for [Pre-Chorus 2] My hands start to shake and shiver The board starts to glow and deliver Three, two, one, let's say goodbye [Chorus] You will be dead by dawn When the bells of hell strike six, six, six You will be dead by dawn Say your prayers and grab your crucifix You will be dead by dawn Now the bells of hell strike six, six, six You will be dead by dawn Say your prayers and grab your crucifix [Bridge] The answer to your question Is an answer you cannot recall You summoned the evil spirits And you got the demon Baal [Guitar solo] [Chorus] You will be dead by dawn When the bells of hell strike six, six, six You will be dead by dawn Say your prayers and grab your crucifix You will be dead by dawn (Dead by dawn) When the bells of hell strike six, six, six You will be dead by dawn (Dead by dawn) Say your prayers and grab your crucifix 09. Battleworn
[Instrumental]
10. Bloodline
[Verse 1]
Fallen is Asgard, the valkyries cry Thundering down from the sky The gates of the castle in ruins, in flames Protected by those who remained Sun setting slowly, there's blood everywhere Screams crying out in despair The last of our legion is left to defend We're back to back until the end [Pre-Chorus 1] By blood we are unified By fire we will rise again Our steel will protect us, the power inside Will make us immortalized [Chorus] Asgard must fall To be born again Rise above all Bloodline's true domain [Verse 2] Sworn in to brotherhood, warriors of fate Ready to take on the gates Under allegiance by Odin's command Reclaim our lost promised land Forever failure or glorious gain Our prophecy's written in pain The carnage of Asgard will now be avenged Charge, brothers, charge and revenge [Pre-Chorus 2] We are your reckoning Your due date we've come to collect We are the bastards that will grind you down Surrender and bow to our crown [Chorus] Asgard must fall To be born again Rise above all Bloodline's true domain [Bridge] (B-L-O-O-D, this is our line) Standing the test of time (B-L double O-D divine) Bring the hammer down [Guitar solo] [Pre-Chorus 3] And now we are free at last Counting the stars up above, ooh One for each brother who's fallen from grace Giving our bloodline a face [Chorus] Asgard must fall To be born again Rise above all Bloodline's true domain Fallen is Asgard Just to be reborn Shine, shining on Our bloodline is restored 11. Chain Of Command
[Verse 1]
Been quiet from ages past We held our peace, condoned our enemies The desolation, destruction of the nation Enough, can't take it anymore [Pre-Chorus 1] March out like true warriors Go forth and stir up your zeal In battle we shout, we roar We honour the name of our lord [Chorus] Follow the chain, follow the chain Follow the chain, follow the chain The chain of command [Verse 2] He's fighting under command A man of war, protector of this land Come guide us to glory, ignite the purgatory The flames turn darkness into light [Pre-Chorus 2] He marches like a champion He reigns the sun and the moon In battle he shouts out loud He triumphs his sworn enemies [Chorus] Follow the chain, follow the chain Follow the chain, follow the chain The chain of command [Guitar solo] [Chorus] Follow the chain, follow the chain Follow the chain, follow the chain The chain of command Follow the chain, follow the chain (Don't you break it, just follow the chain) Follow the chain, follow the chain The chain of command 12. And Yet I Smile
[Verse 1]
Come inside, let's stay a while As the misty morning kiss the sky I have for you a fairy tale Untold, unspoken Words I said and deeds I've done With foolish pride I have touched the sun Some things I did, I apologize Ooh, I'm sorry [Refrain] Not for the things that they made me do Only for the times I failed to see them through In the end, we only will regret The things we did not do This message to you [Verse 2] When life will end, we do not know My time is here, I gotta go I tread the path of no return To find my purpose I walk through life, my spirit's high 'Cause I am me, that's my battle cry Bruised and scarred, that's who I am Ooh, I remember [Pre-Chorus] Stars was aligned and the sky adorned Winter came on the night that I was born And I knew right there at the start That this is my life I'll stand the test of time [Chorus] My star cannot shine Without darkness around Even though I've been scarred for life I must fight to reconcile And yet I smile, I'm alive [Guitar solo] [Bridge] My star cannot shine Without darkness around Even though I've been scarred for life I must fight to reconcile And yet I smile, I'm alive [Chorus] My star cannot shine Without darkness around Even though I've been scarred for life I must fight to reconcile And yet I smile, I'm alive 13. You Win Or You Die
Books with empty pages on the floor
A ghastly wind comes bursting through the door A passage must be written To open up the gates To hand the fallen heroes their fate No one else can create The rush of the dance The glow, the pen will invoke the chapter Streams of light begin to glow Utter the vow Bring on the dawn Come, swear the oath Take a bow Ready to fend for your rights To be free, to be all Only the pledge you sworn To revenge, to return Either you win or you die In the end We are one, we are all Ready to fight or fall Hymn chapters written long ago Ancient rhymes a portal to the world down below These words you cannot utter These words you cannot see We write the final chapter All mankind will continue to bleed Erase and rewind Glow, the pen cannot change this chapter All of this, must come undone Speak of these words You are the one! Come, swear the oath Take a bow Ready to fend for your rights To be free, to be all Only the pledge you sworn To revenge, to return Either you win or you die In the end We are one, we are all Ready to fight or fall Brothers take a bow! Bloodthirsty arms Surrender to no one Surrender to no one Come, swear the oath Take a bow Ready to fend for your rights To be free, to be all Only the pledge you sworn To revenge, to return Either you win or you die In the end We are one, we are all Ready to fight or fall |
