L.A.W.S.

Marching to green meadows
Fellows and brothers ready for the gallows
Dark clouds signal our force
Eagles in their height skirmish our dragons blight.
Vicious ferocity for our cause

They must know by now of our drums beat
Step by step enter hallowed ground
Kill their king take our land.
We have the right of might behind our hand
Young will eat the old when fires become cold

Steel flashes in midnight sun
Torchlight! Put it out
Ambush before dawn
Summon beasts with virgin blood

Our war drums echo on
Marching one by one
Created a path of skulls
Hung their cadavers on our walls.
They looked to me and asked for mercy
I sent assassins in place of peace
Horrified yet stalwart in vengeance
They understood we are the enemy

Slay the people, burn the fields
Destroy all that they love
Rape the country side, Force them to hide
Bastard children damned for life

Do you hear it now
That war cry sound
Armies approach to defend this coast
Steel yourself, prepare to strike
Blast the horns towards the sky

Steel flashes in midnight sun
Torchlight! Put it out
Ambush before dawn
Summon beasts with virgin blood

Vainglory in our names
Putrid members make our ranks
Stink of death follows our campaign
The horrendous bodies of the maimed
Given life through dark arts
They follow us with no heart
Instill a primal fear in those of light
Cannot run, they turn to fight

A winter storm on summers night
Work of the gods it must be
A sign of trial to come
Consult the wizards in sacred tongue

Ysnor! Mahken! Come to my aide!
A sacrifice I have made!
To appease your favor in coming days
But I fear it may be too late

Sins of my fathers are very great
In the past they murdered and enslaved
A cult of priests from long ago
Lost humanity to dread and sorrow

This omen, the time is nigh
It was told the dead will rise
Spread like rats with the plague
Burn our dead and scatter remains

Call upon the allies of my god!
Rebuild broken fortress with new songs
Rearm my forces with great haste
We have no time to waste

Can you hear it? Can you feel it?
Arctic wind on summers night?
What darkness! Hark! An oddity!
Strange war drums ring out constantly
They've taken the south coast!
With attempts on my life
A small group I have made
to oppose this evil strife
Who are these demons that torment my lands?
Why will they not listen to peaceful demands?
Flag kept flying for we are the undying
Blessed by vigor from above

Now ready your soul and keep up your nerve
They cannot be allowed to conquer heaven and earth
Banish these unholy beings from this plain
Now ready for battle! Let cry out our name!

Now you hear it! Now you feel it!
Dark grip of icy claws
A stranglehold of blackened sun
Brought about by evil ones
Who are these demons?
Why torment my lands?
Will you not listen, to peaceful demands?
If not you must then I will trust
In the sword of my elders
Cannot run or turn to flee
Stand and fight this enemy

We are here at your door
and I brought the horde with me
to ensure my victory
condemn your property
In the end you'll try to flee
A triumph of my mortality

We hear you out there
You've made one great mistake
You brought this war to my gates
This is our home, won't let this go
Banish you like so long ago

Back down below the ground
Where Tortured screams are
The only sounds that you hear
I can smell your fear
Release the hounds
There trying to steal the crown

Drop the gates
War has begun
Forgotten soldiers
Sent to burn
Shallow graves
In the mud
Feast upon the dead horde

This is the last hope
All kingdoms destroyed
Standing tall against creatures from the void
No time left, we face then now
To save this crown from unholy Foul

Priests bless water, soldiers coat sword
Archers ready to fire on my word!
Light tinder hidden in the fields
Sanctify the beasts with hardened steel!

This prophecy wasn't meant to be
I've seen things that cant be unseen
Devouring dead just to survive
My lands were meant to strive

The east wall has fallen!
Storm the keep! kill the king!
Murder will take this day!
Descend into chaos! Hatred and disarray!

Enslave the young, kill the old
Prove the prophets words of long ago
We have no souls and false hearts
Your pathetic clergy torn apart

Vainglory in our names
Putrid members make our ranks
Kill the king take our land
I ignore righteous demands

Final defenders in the keep
Stones run red with blood and feces
Turn this castle upside down
Find that bastard! Bring me his crown!
Now we meet, you are in my grasp
It was told to cut your head in half
Last words? I give you none
Condemn you to hell where this all begun
