Down the vast hills in morning mist cold Into the peaceful deep valley below. Twothousand stallions foaming with hate Carrying their masters towards their fate Into the battle they ride Twothousand men too young to die. Massacre......
Coming from each side prepared for attack Covered in dustclouds now there is no turning back Once so peaceful valley echoes with cries Cascades of blood and brains as the midday sun rise Under a bloodred sky None will live to face the night Massacre......
Amidst the scattered limbs dead bodies finally comes to peace While the stench of blood grows strong in the mild midday breeze Circling the sky the vultures wait to play their part To descend of wings of death and feast from human hearts The battle is lost still someone always wins And now they descend on death's black wings Massacre...... (Massacre......)
3. Woman Of Dark Desires
All dressed in gold and purple the beauty awaits the night Knowing what will satisfy Aware of Her delight The thought of young fresh blood makes the hours go so slow But the yearn for eternal life and beauty makes her hazelbrown eyes glow
Woman of Dark Desires Woman of Eternal Beauty Woman of Dark Desires Elizabeth Bathory......
Now the hour is comed, the time is right for the feast to take its roll And by the sunrise 60 bodies will be found raped from their blood and souls The beauty patiently selects the victims for the night Innocent blood will give eternal beauty eternal life
Woman of Dark Desires Woman of Eternal Beauty Woman of Dark Desires Elizabeth Bathory......
Now the life you have lived have comed to light and unfold is your perversity. Now the end is near still death is real No more beauty or life for eternity Cold walls entombs your secrets but there's nothing you regret Embrace death with a smile as the highlands face sunset
Woman of Dark Desires Woman of Eternal Beauty Woman of Dark Desires Elizabeth Bathory......
[Repeat chorus]
[Dedicated to the memory of Elizabeth Bathory 1560-1640]
4. Call From The Grave
God of Heaven, Hear my cries of anguish I'm in pain I've suffered a thousand deaths but I live on in vain
Death would greet with eternal sleep My soul would come to peace My life had ceased The time was comed Can no-one hear my pleas
Lowered down in the moisty ground Into the dark and cold My heart's beat the only sound Pain tears my limbs and soul
I scream for mercy Hear my cries Oh, Lord don't abandon me I'm so tired Grant me the eternal sleep
I tear at the lid I'm suffering In a cold and nameless grave If Hell is what awaits me I feel no fright
Buried and forgotten In a cold and nameless grave If there's a God in heaven Hear my call from the grave......
[Repeat last two verses]
5. Equimanthorn
Grant me the powers of thunder And give me a sword forged in the raging Hell's fire Lend me the eight legged black stallion of Odin and I'll have my vengeance, oh, I'll kill with desire
Vengeance flows like boiling poison through my twisted veins Tonight I'll blood shed with wrath and set the night on flames Invincible in battle, wargods hear my deathwish cry I'll laugh in the face of death, I into glory ride
Snarling breath upon your backs, I'm vengeance incarnate Now it's time, the moment's comed, stand up now, face my hate See the fire in my eyes, the final light you'll see I send you to the darkness with my sword of thunder and steel
[Repeat second verse]
I let the bodies lie in shame I let mighty earth drink their blood I turn my face to eternal sky And praise my elders' God Equimanthorn hear my Hail You're the mighty four winds night and day Steel in every warrior's heart and sword The brave and wise in flesh and soul Equimanthorn, Equimanthorn, Equimanthorn, Equimanthorn, Equimanthorn, Equimanthorn, Equimanthorn, Equimanthorn
6. Enter The Eternal Fire
Leave the world of mortals to walk into the mist to stalk unto the other side Plains of otherness The utter emptiness Where time have ceased and dark and light collide Crossing the river of death and water cold Slowly walking up the bridge The jewelled bridge I walk for what seems a lifetime In the night it's jewels glow There on the other side On shore of no return The one for me awaits Cannot avoid the eyes In which the fire burns Comed this far it is too late
And He calls my name First a whispering then louder And he wants me to follow And to Enter the Eternal Fire......
I walk this endless night His eyes the only light Repeatedly he whispers my name Fingers move and twist Through crimson thick dark mist and voices cry of agony and pain Close now to his kingdom The bleak world dark and still I follow the voice whispering my name Approach the gate of sin Opened up to let me in and there, He stand in flames The price now I must pay for eternity my soul his claim For years of pleasures, victory and gold The one who stand in flames Now rise and walk my way and reach out for my soul
And He calls my name First a whispering then louder And he wants me to follow And to fall down. The Eternal Fire......
I stand at the jaws of the pit The heat scorch my flesh The fall seem never to end My hair burn My eyes can't see The flames slowly eat my soul The pain tears my mind Hear my cries oh Lord Have mercy oh Lord This can't be Raging flames all over me Inferno of heat Oh no, oh no, oh noooooo, noooooo, noooooo......
7. Chariots Of Fire
The damned earth commot under starspangled sky As the sound of destruction increase Tongues of red fire snatch black clouds above and unite with the cold Northern breeze A massive veil of flames raise high over the mountains and burning clouds fill up the sky Along vast hills liquid fire brim over Tonight Hell's jaws open wide
Over the skyline Approaching at high speed Objects of flames reaching higher Crossing the sky at Hell's pace comes a thousand Chariots of Fire......
Chariots of fire emerge Spreading pure hell on earth as they pass over water and land All living to ashes turn All creatures alive they burn They die as they lay and stand Vast hills on fire Thick smoke dark sight Ashes and death everywhere Covered with ashes the bleak world lies dead as the chariots emerge the poisoned air
Over the skyline Approaching at high speed Objects of flames reaching higher Crossing the sky at Hell's pace comes a thousand Chariots of Fire......
[Repeat first verse]
[Repeat Chorus]
8. 13 Candles
[Whispers something]
Now the night lays dark and cold Upon a world at sleep Across he world sweeps a crimson haze Now the virgin's seal is broken The fertility rite is complete And the seed is sown in a holy place
Born a child of the underworld The fire and flame Born a child of the underworld Desire and pain Born a child of the underworld Evil prevail Born a child of the underworld......
Now the day is slowly fading The 12th night is comed Prepare soon the virgin shall give birth To the son of Satan, Child of Hell Spread the news across the universe
Satan's child is born tonight by womb untouched and pure All Hell rejoice the birth of the Son Laced in sin Child of Hell The spirit of lust and pain Baptised in sacred angel blood Now Evil can prevail
Born a child of the underworld The fire and flame Born a child of the underworld Desire and pain Born a child of the underworld Evil prevail Born a child of the underworld......
So light the 13 Candles
[Repeat chorus]
So light the 13 Candles
