Can you feel The fear Building up inside The masses cry Call out for regicide The time is right To tear the castle down String up the fool Then we’ll smash his crown Scream revolution Can you hear it calling? We are stronger now It’s taking over Better start running No time for praying And I Will take it for my own Yeah, I Will take the throne I I take it for myself Taking the throne I’m gonna take it Yeah I take the throne Oh, start To run You took down one But Now there’s another And I Got my eye On that prize And I Won’t stop Until it’s mine

A craven, a thief, a monster a liar Given a choice Head to be mounted, upon a spike Or life on The Wall To don the black cloak, or taste the black tar Take the clean slate Live to serve the realm, the shield to protect Sword in the dark I have gone and taken the black remember the treacherous past I'll never forget Time fades the mind, but memories lurk Of carnage and darkness I will Of carnage and darkness I die I shall wear no crown and win no glory My watch begins Watcher on the wall, 700 feet Ice is my home I shall take no wife, and father no children Or hold any lands Live to serve the crown, the shield to protect Sword in the dark Carnage Carnage and dakness

Raining Fire 04:21
Every night in the dark Eye's wide, cannot sleep I can't take the dreams Apocalypse, holding me seeking me See the death, the ones I love I feel it creeping in Eyes closing, not again Apocalypse, gripping me, taking me Fire Burns Us All Take my hand Take my hand, you will see See my world See my pain, misery Raining Fire Fate foretold, heed my call Raining Fire Watch it Burn, Watch it Fall Clouds are dark overhead Flashes cross the sky Winds of heat scar my face Apocalypse, here for me, here to stay We are of ash and dust Little sparks to quickly fade Take us away from here Apocalypse, take my hand, take me now

All my life I have spent Dreaming of this day of glory I will smash All the foes That dare to stand before me I Can’t Fail Tunnel vision Staring straight At the target Striking fast I take it down I’ve been pushed back I’ve been held down I was born to Win this fight I can’t give up I’m relentless I have power And the might All around From each side Endless blows fall around me Beaten back Bruised and worn But something’s burning from within I Will Fight Till my last breath And then they’ll see What it means to be immortal Here it is My one chance To show them why I’ve come this far For all those Told they can’t I’m here to tell you that you can Fire burning, take a stand – win or lose – end up a man

An eternal thirst for knowledge Beyond the secrets of all worlds A journey to the sacred water That every drop, an eternity holds Odin, god of war Master of the Runes Gave his sight to see beyond All worlds and their dooms For knowledge divine I’d give and eye To be God of the mind Any sacrifice Beneath the mighty tree of life That holds the many worlds A shadow being guards the well of cosmic wisdom unparalleled Mimir, wise guardian I come to thee this day To drink from the well of truth Any price I’ll pay For knowledge divine Relinquish an eye To be god of the mind Make your sacrifice Blood runs red Down my hands Cast into the well My blindness now descends Drinking in sight Fills my consciousness As I ascend Open your eye To Knowledge divine All wisdom of life You hold inside Opening my eye To eternity Secrets of death and life I have seen Granting this wisdom To all my brothers Of mighty Asgard And to the realms of man Raise up your voices Take up our song To honor he who Has made us strong Almighty Odin Grant us thy wisdom Fight by our sides and Guide us in life and death Grant us thy wisdom Power and glory Honor and valour Guide us in peace and War

Smoke fills the air And blocks out the light All I see is red The end is in sight Mind in disarray As all turns to ash Now I must fight to survive (in the wasteland) Panic sets in All over the land Bodies laid to waste I can't understand How'd it get this way? Why am I here to stay? Humanity's final stand (in the wasteland) I can barely breathe I can barely see Finding the will to stay alive I'm calling to the streets so you can hear me Distantly Hopelessly Hear the symphony Burned out city Sun starts to set There's screams in the night Louder and louder They're now in my sight Burning all that stands They're raiding the land For now there is no more law (in the wasteland) Calling out loud But they don't see Laughing maniacally They start the flames There's no escape My fate has been sealed Awaiting my final breath (in the wasteland) (Fire! Fire!) The flames start to close in As I collapse to the ground (Fire! Fire!) The flames start to close in As I collapse to the ground Quietly Fade away There goes the symphony Burned out city

Deep within the earth The elk draws its worth Protector's living form Rise against the evil swarm Far beyond the seas Possessor of the keys To unlock the past Fill the sails of future's mast In the darkness, breeds the mass Fire of the mountain melts the frigid winter's pass Through the storm, burns the light Deep within the fist lays the Norse legend's might Four drawn as one Four drawn as one High on the mountain Last of many kin Living mystery Place in life is yet to see Cradle of the pine They prey's hidden line Providers of life Every day another strife
8.
Grab your swords, axes, and spears And join us on this night The chills that run throughout the air Will shoot right down your spine As torches light up the night To guide us and the souls that died We mustn't forget a sacrifice To honor the gods that give us life Blood will be running down these hills And the gods will hear us singing Join us on these winter nights On hallowed grounds we will survive Spilling blood to honor life And celebrate for those who died Lets make a toast before we boast And drink to those we love Years have passed and we still stand Harvesting this sacred land As seasons change we will provide For the gods we trust we'd surely die So grab your horns and hold them high By the hammer of Thor we will survive

Eclipse 05:19
Feel the cold, darkened sky Surround you, hold you tight Shadows crush, nightmares stir Light fades now, forever Vengeful god, strikes the sun Thousands cry, abandoned Like children, left alone Pay for crimes, unknown Feel the eclipse Take You Whispers grow, mad men shout Ancient sins, all our fault Grab up blades, sacrifice Innocence, Bring the Light Run and hide, devil's grin Blades drip red, piercing skin Give us light, Endless Night Time runs out, Undone Darkness in light Destroys us Feel the eclipse Take You A thousand lives Dying Feel the eclipse Break you Madness and fear Destruction Feel the eclipse Make you Sun returns, shade by shade Sky bleeds out, our debt paid Light restored, finally Pain subsides, relief Was the end, worth the cost Ending life, to save life Heroes born, in dark days Killers now, always

Built of stone Towering Light in the haze Glowering Spirit vile Lives within These gray walls Luring victims It is despair, it is pain it is suffering The Old Lighthouse on the shore, it is thirsting For more blood, for more bones, for more souls to take Within its walls, feed the light that determines fate Into the dead of the night Led to your doom by false light Upon the dread coast arrive Wreckage with none left alive Do not dare To enter Spiral stairs Tormentor At the top Awaits you Blinding light Your doom Ascending the staircase of pain Feeling your soul start to drain The stories, the fables, the tales All come true as your life wanes and fails Out of the fog A guiding light Delivers the crew Lost in the night Lost tortured souls Captive inside Tower of stone Death in disguise If you don’t turn back The end is nigh And now you die Go Lost, abandoned, insane None will remember your names Your souls have been claimed for all time No one will hear your last cries
