I am thunder Confirmed a dominion Quite without shame Buried in oblivion At the crest of my fame Reduced to submission Carried out a threat One absolute condition Or you'll be dead I'm gonna hail my servants For indignity I never dare to burden Dauntingly Hallowed be my kingdom 'cause I am the law And my blood runs crimson High-minded god I am thunder Attend to your master I am thunder Adore your lord I am thunder Speak an oath of allegiance Couldn't ask for more As you bow to your god You're my running sore A slave to enforce the law Overcrowded prisons My deterrence Don't give an opinion To seize a chance Maintenance of power A world of distrust At the eleventh hour When I balk a blast Obey to my every command Warship the ground that I walk on Warship the ground that I walk on

Looking back on better times We want for nothing We were filled with zest for life Happiness and laughter The reign ruled with wisdom and care Had visions of wealth they could share We struck a vein of gold Mighty was our craft We were digging through the night Blast away the rocks The reign ruled with an iron hand Without willing to share what we gained Won't condone a reign of gold A venom to be drawn forever Wipe out parasites, crawling on our way... Piling treasures in the vault Dispossess the great pretender We blithely ignored Why do you believe? To get away scot-free Your crown got lost - forced to resign Pay for crime The scourge of slavery No courage to face life Abrasions on my knees You can't force me to live The reign ruled with an iron hand Without willing to share what we gained

Dancing around in circles Moving, swinging - make steps back and forth I am one with the rhythm Indulge on my passion - performing my Waltz Humming along to the music Self-absorbed in the sweet melody Gliding in light as a feather Straighten up and flying away One moment Remember My devil's pact Feels like ember Stand on the edge Stand on the edge of my life I walk on a tightrope My final act to survive Dancing Lucifer's Waltz I am a star I'm a master When they admire my pure elegance Look at my facial expressions Awestruck and swollen with pride Allow our pact to expire Paying the price for my fortune and fame Deprive my invaluable talent Now I get lost - I'm no prodigy I'm broken Bog-standard He took my soul Abandoned Stand on the edge Stand on the edge of my life I walk on a tightrope My final act to survive Dancing Lucifer's Waltz

Sky is bleeding Horses whinnying in my head Fear overcomes my mind Soldiers are afraid that day I smell the anxiousness Of men surrounding me Grim reapers lurking Will harvest some souls today Swords and rifles Glancing in the morning sun Tools of destruction Biding for a taste of blood Await the enemy Conflict inevitable Thousands of men Screaming out our battlecry Grail knights - will call my assault Fortune - flamours abort One hit by a bullet of betrayal Fired by the henchman's hand Killed from behind to hide his face Emperors attack under the royal mask Warriors fighting For their king and victory The soul is trembling Mighty horses make their way An awful blow Batters in our rows Forced to fall back Defense formations straight away A desperate strike Opponents on the ground Risen from the bloody land We turn the tide Shadows of the dark Henchman's out of strike Inspired by this hate and Loaded guns to seal my fate

Falling leaves Are rustling on the ground Hear the sound in the meadow Restore my courage to face life Close my eyes I am lonely Silent night I hear a gust of wind Whispering but I don't understand I'm listening to This must be you When a shape of light Glistens deep inside Familiarity It's close to me Burning up my fate There's a ghost of shining light Harvest moon I see the gleam of stars Bright and far out of nowhere Shadows of the past are wandering It's closing in dissolve slowly But it seems to awaken memories Eternally it struck me right away Can't believe it's true this must be you No justice - who states for whom the bell tolls No justice - who meet my fate Despite this - who stops a higher power Their damnation - desperation this time When a shape of light Glistens deep inside Familiarity It's close to me Burning up my fate There's a ghost of shining light

Hunters - relentless pursuit Hunters - misled them - that will do Hunters - they are everywhere Most wanted man - beware Hunters - I'm not an easy prey Hunters - I reach the forest glade Hunters - get caught in a trap One careless step on my way I'm untamed I'm enchained Feel the shackles of pain To choke my vains Won't surrender My attempt to deceive I am sure to succeed Do you believe I surrender? - No never! Torture - I won't say a word Torture - to get a proof of guilt Torture - do you want my blood? Keep silent - sure enough Torture - drub with bated breath Torture - at the brink of death Torture - they won't let me die Keep the secret to survive Won't surrender Until the end of time I'm unbroken - a strong-willed man Missed your last chance Before my lips were sealed No you can't read my mind Can't convict me of lying There's no use to crying I'm untamed - I'm enchained Feel the shackles of pain To choke my vains Won't surrender My attempt to deceive I am sure to succeed Do you believe I surrender? - No never!
I am walking to a master A real master of his trade At the border of the village Feels like ten miles away Hate to pull the chunky handcart Where potholes are everywhere Step by step I'm coming closer To the end of this way Listen to the smite on the anvil A fire from afar When the blacksmith is stroking Clanger in the dark When the iron is glowing Going up in flames Extinguish the fire Wall of smother and sparks he can tame The blacksmith just shapes metal blades I can sense the smell of metal In his dire armory Never seen so many weapons Straight rows - polished and clean At this place I'm feeling queasy 'cause I am just a knave Have to bear away the armour Back on dangerous ways Listen to the smite on the anvil A fire from afar When the blacksmith is stroking Clanger in the dark When the iron is glowing Going up in flames Extinguish the fire Wall of smother and sparks he can tame The blacksmith just shapes metal blades

By a cruel twist of fate Defeated in a moonless night They came out of nowhere In this fight I feel abased Wake me up and hold me tight It's hard to believe it Now I lapse into self-doubt Regard it as an enemy Or just an illusion Imprudently I scream and shout Aggressions are inside of me Like human nature Believe in valor Martial Valor Work up the courage I do I am fighting for you Believe in valor My martial valor Work up the courage I do Outrageous deeds can't get through Martial Valor On a predatory trace Follow on your path of blood It's glueing on your blades I take vengeance oh I swear Certainly you curse the day Of cowardice Believe in valor Martial Valor Work up the courage I do I am fighting for you Believe in valor My martial valor Work up the courage I do Outrageous deeds can't get through Martial Valor

Avid for power Hungry for fame Never tolerate an opposition He is the wisdom He is the law If he is wrong he's gonna change it all He is the swayer Almighty god Suspecting everyone for insurrection Assault the allies Made war by breach Dared to refuse their sole subjection Ready to strike When might is right Capture for the land of evil Second to none Never outgunned 'cause we are the legion of the damned Want to abase you Down on your knees We overrun your troops effortlessly Smell smoke and powder And lick your scab We're gonna find you when we're coming back Surmount the riges And flood the tales We're gonna find you when we search the glades Allay our anger Don't thwart our fate Make no resistance before you feel our hate Ready to strike When might is right Capture for the land of evil Second to none Never outgunned 'cause we are the legion of the damned

Longing for the day of reckoning Confident of victory Seek revenge to banish you beyond the shore Evermore Goods and chattels burning to the ground Fly a flag for our good deeds Pride will have a fall for eternity As for me Victory You'll be anxious hear our battle cry Victory We take vengeance you're gonna die Victory Missed your chances you fail to see Face the heat, kill your breed Victory There's no mercy no apology To alleviate your pain Your high treason antagonized our lord Fatal fault We don't like to play a waited game There is nothing left for you Hourglass is empty it's all over now Anyhow Victory You'll be anxious hear our battle cry Victory We take vengeance you're gonna die Victory Missed your chances you fail to see Face the heat, kill your breed Victory
