Scores of War

Ohhhhhh Run away… Run away… Run away… Run away save our souls Run away, run forevermore Cast off fears – There is hope War is raging like never before Deep into the song, (...There's an evil hunting you...) Just went to the front With a fearless heart From the no-man land to the Isle of damned Ready for our last stand Pray and hope to a god unknown We shall find glory or death alone Trying to hold my strength tonight My heart longing to bring you home White frost is upon us Vile and cold Terror, war and hunger Shall unfold Prophecies and legends Speak of hope Find the one who’s born of Elder blood Run Away, Riding fast Run away, run forevermore Hunt us down, marching through the dark Hunger, blood and woe, the price of war Deep into the song, (...There's an evil hunting you...) Just went to the front With a fearless heart Darkness comes, raise your swords Our power shall be known Pray and hope to the flame of old While all gods turn their back on all Is there anyone to bring light? Stand our ground to believe and fight White frost is upon us Vile and cold Terror, war and hunger Shall unfold Prophecies and legends Speak of hope Find the one who’s born of Elder blood

Sleepless, in self-denial Our hearts on fire towards a worthless deed Fighting for just more power Burning desire, to end this kill - But damned to carry on The cold metal feel Kingdoms rose and slowly crumbled all at the whim of this sentient steel, Many proud heroes were cruelly humbled blinded by the sword's appeal Betrayed, Father we are Still in this night together we rise Let down again, Fathers and sons Grab men your hearts together we march As the lightning strikes the people turn to dust and life breaks down When we look over the burned earth at the chards and blistered scars Then at last there in the openness as we learn the horrid truth That the power of steel compelled it and burned down our home and roof Betrayed, Father we are Still in this night together we rise Let down again, Fathers and sons Grab men your hearts together we march We shall be free once more Live by the sword Die by the sword Kill by the sword Free by the sword By the sword We'll make our stand Until the End As the lightning strikes the people turn to dust and life breaks down When we look over the burned earth at the chards and blistered scars Then at last there in the openness as we learn the horrid truth That the power of steel compelled it and burned down our home and roof Hear me, Fathers and sons Still in this night together we rise This is the end, finally free Grab men your hearts together we march

Since the last alliance Between men and elves One could say threat is but gone Though the voice of darkness Shall be heard once more Black Gate falls before the dawn Sacrifice, blood and bone shall be offered (No!) May you come and emerge as a shadow (I'm right here my son) What is this place? Am I dead? You are cursed, cast adrift in between worlds (Lies!) Between light and the dark you’re condemned to wander (I've lost everyone) How to break this curse? Banished from death to fight and slay Mordor's shadow falls within your wake To avenge and be free, to find your way Peace and honor shall be yours someday Gravewalker In the land of Mordor Where the shadows lie No, the dark lord shall not hide We shall battle the Black Hand of Sauron (Die!) Through the blackness of night we shall undo the spell (Vengeance through the steel) I shall not bend to this woe I remember my past full of sorrow (Traitor!) I remember my name, I remember my pain (I vow revenge!) Ages ago Banished from death to fight and slay Mordor’s shadow falls within your wake To avenge and be free, to find your way Peace and honor shall be yours someday

Lai la lee lai... In the throne room a man Receives the old king's blessing All the hope of the realm In his shoulders resting Oh Husband and father Oh Hero of honor Heroes depart on a journey they go Let all the bards of the kingdom know Sing it with heart, sing it loud, sing it strong An adventure song Grievous news reached home The hero has fallen But where father has failed Son will prevail Oh He is so young Oh But his heart is strong Heroes depart on a journey they go Let all the bards of the kingdom know Sing it with heart, sing it loud, sing it strong An adventure song Lai la lee lai... And as he walks through plains and hills His heart is turned to home Is this the first and final quest? Can just a child the kingdom save? And as the dawn renews his soul With him his loyal friends To fight and stop the archfiend's plan Behold the child becomes a man Through dark plains, valleys and hills Across the seven seas Blaze with might to battle Fight and slay Baramos Heroes depart on a journey they go Let all the bards of the kingdom know Sing it with heart, sing it loud, sing it strong An adventure song Lai la lee lai...

Come with me Into the eye of the storm Find me there With bloody blades still warm They want us to believe that we can never be free Yet now we show them all what they could not foresee A slave's desire Can be a trembling modest spark Yet lits the fire A blazing light of hope defying the dark Into the heart of despair courageous we ride I see it clear now For freedom is not negotiable Against the tyrant we dare to rise and defy Burn me and lash me My freedom is not negotiable Your own fear The greatest shackle of them all Opened eyes The key to tyrants fall They want us to believe that we can never be free Yet now we show them all what they could not foresee Into the heart of despair courageous we ride I see it clear now For freedom is not negotiable Against the tyrant we dare to rise and defy Burn me and lash me My freedom is not negotiable Hic manebimus optime Libertas quae sera tamen Into the heart of despair courageous we ride I see it clear now For freedom is not negotiable Against the tyrant we dare to rise and defy Burn me and lash me My freedom is not negotiable Into the heart of despair courageous we ride It is so clear now Freedom is not negotiable Against the tyrant we dare to rise and defy Slay me, destroy me My freedom is not negotiable

The night is falling in silence Waking up the spirits of the sea. In peace I am closing my eyes Praying to the Lord His promise to keep. Thinking of the life That I didn't follow The green meadows back home. After thirty days in the water I can finally see my home Holy star of the mystical sunset Oh my Lord I can sense my North I was in fear and I was in awe But I survived this unjust war. Suddenly a roar of thunder And our ship is losing control. Here comes another stormnight Waves are strong but so is my soul. Time travels back To my precious childhood. My father whispers "valour" Two-faced misty ocean, I'm a eagle in the sky I'm standing, I defy you I will I will I will I will not cry. And when at last I reach my harbor, when my boots are finally dry I'll live in love and peace until until until until I die. I was in fear and I was in awe But I survived this unjust war. Two-faced misty ocean, I'm an eagle in the sky I'm standing, I defy you I will I will I will I will not cry. And when at last I reach my harbor, when my boots are finally dry I'll live in love and peace until until until until I die.

In my quest for glory I have found this cursed place Desperation, horror, dead are rising from their graves Many years have passed since my blade tasted wicked blood (No bright way left to choose) Shall this battle honor my strength? Can it be the one? (Nothing more left to loose) By the light of the fallen star I prevail Look for the Wiseman to heed his tale Hordes of my foes arise far and wide Yet hell itself won't break my warrior's pride Burn thy dead and shut the gates, the cowards must stay in Going down deep underground I'll fight the skeleton king Running through my veins and boiling my barbarian blood (Break the curse, free the land) Ancient power guide my fury 'gainst the dreadful one (Yes thou art nephalem) By the light of the fallen star I prevail Look for the Wiseman to heed his tale Hordes of my foes arise far and wide Yet hell itself won't break my warrior's pride Pride Pride

On this dark winter's night I see the lonely glance of a star Lonely star It spoke to me and said Why are you wandering all alone in this dark road tonight? I raised my voice and said My quest to find my way has been long Far too long I was abandoned here Forsaken on my own as soon the sun has gone away Pain and sorrow take their toll Love is stronger, it conquers all Fly away on calm healing winds Dawns the day to wake up this withering heart The chanting sound of wind Was singing songs of mourning and loss Cold loss The star spoke again You hold the power to make all your dreams come true within The howling wind went silent To hear me say the words: I believe Please show me And then across the sky A thousand stars appeared and like a single voice they sang

Darkened skies upon us Fury of the outer space Swarms of alien insects Soon we'll be attacked People screaming in fear Nowhere they can run Hope is lost in their eyes Countdown has begun And where the need is dire The space knights land Their guns and heavy armour Their stout hearts Men who lived with honour In steel clad Hearts beat again when Knights organize the last stand The swarm of the aliens Fights with frenzied hate Guns blaze as red talons Rip their trembling flesh Men, guns and their foul foes Fight with all they have Embracing each other In a crimson grave But then the glory of the emperor shines in the sky His armada appears from the red flaming clouds Plasma cannons scorch aliens in beams of light And the knights of the empire rush into attack Chainswords grind and guns fire at the unyielding foe And the tide is rising of battle and blood Naked souls full of fury close in on the beasts And they serve their good name by dispatching them all Victory is now complete for the empire's flag We survived and defeated the swarm of our death Long shall it be remembered, our furious last stand And remind us that unity is our one strength

Closing my eyes As I feel the wind By the sunset's dying light Heart filled with pride Heroes side by side And we know it's our last ride Fight and carry on Fight and die so strong Take upon the glory, proud and bold Tonight we fight once more Deep into battle one last time My friends, we ride to war Strike! Hold! Strike again! And keep that bloody line We shall see no dawn Yet our courage is divine Fight! Carry on Fight! And die so strong Take upon the glory, proud and bold Tonight we fight once more Deep into battle one last time We ride to war Full charge! No retreat! For our dark fate must unroll Wield your noble steel As a piece of your own soul Fight! Carry on Fight! And die so strong Take upon the glory, proud and bold Tonight we fight once more Deep into battle one last time We ride to war Warm, red, it flows And with it my life goes I shall see you once more Upon afterlife's shore Cold death wind's blow Came for my soul Yet before I go I shall kill them all Fight! Carry on Fight! And die so strong Take upon the glory, proud and bold Tonight we fight once more Deep into battle one last time We ride to war Take upon the glory, proud and bold Tonight we fight once more Deep into battle one last time My friends, we ride to war
