1. Abducted

A beam of light out of the shadows
Darkness casts a spell upon us
Burning alien rays leading the blind
Spellbound and frozen to ice
Chained and hypnotized
Madness is raging in our minds

Millions of miles in a blink of the eye
The sense of time is gone
Unknown dimensions – we’re a part of the sky
The forces of darkness have won

Abducted now
Taken away into the night

The open gate - closed behind us
A trail of light ahead of us
The visions in our minds are running wild
Screams of pain make us shiver
Journey through an unknown river
Nightmare and reality collide

Abducted now
Taken away into the night
Abducted now
So far beyond of all the light


2. Palace Of Sin

Brought to the dungeons shackled and chained
Awaiting my destiny’s call
Left with no choice but to live by the sword
The way of the warrior my law

Slave to the emperor champion for the crown
The blood on my blade is my pride
Slashing and slicing my foes hit the ground
Relentless I’m ruling the fight

Trapped in a life of violence and pain
In the palace of sin
There’s no escape forever remain
In the palace of sin

These halls of decay is what I’m calling home
The fires of Hades I feed
Lust and debauchery the wages of war
The slaves of the flesh serve my every need

Fall to your knees and pray to the gods
No one can save you from my wrath
Adrenaline pounding through my veins
As I tear out your heart

I have to get out break free from these chains
Winds of freedom are calling my name
Uprising from slavery we charge through the gates
Onward we ride war is our fate

Palace of sin
Palace of sin


3. Armies Of The Tyrant

Hear the distant thunder – rising from the plains
The sound of marching legions on their way
The ground is shaking – the threat is drawing near
Our hearts freeze in terror feel the fear

No signs of life in their eyes
No cruelty they’ve left undone
The silence is gone - time to realize
The bloodshed has begun

Armies of the tyrant
Following the seal
The armies of the black spreading fear
Armies of the tyrant
Following the seal
Ain’t there a way to escape from the seal

Unseen they passed us – an eerie scenery
Silent slaves of the war machinery
Forced by their commanders – the power of their will
Driven to destroy and to kill


4. Law Of The Blade

Running across the hot plain
Reaching the mountains of black
Hearing the cries of pain
In fear of a coming attack
Weapons that we take are from the dead
As they rot in the dawn
A battle behind and a battle ahead
The calm before the storm

Ambush attack
Legions of black
Suddenly they’re everywhere
Raising the swords
And wielding the axe
Show them the meaning of fear

Kill or be killed
The law of the blade
Rule and obey
The law of the blade

Assassins appearing from nowhere
Angry and wild they arise
A strike of the sword is our answer
The Hell’s breed has to demise
Deadly is the silence after the war
The fate is catching it’s breath
Slaughtered souls reaching the shore
The reaper is bringing on death


5. Across The Wastelands

Sick and wounded – and close to death
Step by step through the desert sand
Burning our lunges with hot breath
A nameless torture without end

Hope and desire
Merged on a trail of fire
Agony and pain
Praying for a desert rain

The crack of the whip
The beat of the drum
The horror seems to last forever
Crossing the land
We’re crossing the sea
Chained and bound together

Across the wastelands
Beyond the seas
Onward to an unknown fate we ride
Across the wastelands
The barren earth
Facing our fate side by side
Side by side

Passing galleys on a lake of sulphur
Bloodred sunset – yellow water
Increasing clouds of poisoned vapour
Hear the echoes of the tyrants laughter

Rain and our tears
Mixed on a sea of fears
Screams and cries
Stars of an endless night


6. Shadow World

The daylight flows down the hills
Reveals a long deserted plain
Vultures are waiting – feel the chill
The blood is boiling in our veins

Forced to believe in the reality of dreams
Stranded on a strange world
Open our eyes to a nightmare of a scene
Stranded on a hidden world

A world behind the sun
Black and grey shadow world
The lord of evil has won
Grey and black shadow world

We look above and feel the fear
The greatness of a second moon
As other planets seem so near
A dying warrior beats his drum

A light breeze uncovers human bones
Relicts of the unfortunate ones
The red sand nearly buries us
Creating new desert dunes
In the distance across the plain
We see a range of black hills
Silent voices whispering their name
Where the lord of evil dwells


7. Allied Forces

Down below in the darkness
Behind secret doors
There’s a light to guide us
In our blackest hours
Long forgotten but still alive
Sworn together on a rotten ground
From everywhere the fighters arrive
On to the battle we’re bound

The fierce and the wild
Legions of the light
Standing side by side
Into the final fight

No more sorrows - No more pain
We’re breaking the chains
Break the spell – Arise tonight
We’re the forces of light
Feel the power – Feel the force
We show no remorse
To free the world – We’ll ride tonight
In for the kill - The forces of light

Spreading the message
All across the land
We shall end the dark age
The future’s in our hands
Determination in our eyes
The tables have turned
Finally our powers have grown
To arise from the underworld

Strong of heart and mind
We’re gonna end oppression
The darkness will be forced
Into submission

Determination
We shall defy
End the dark reign
Our time has come


8. Empires Fall

Under the cover of darkness
At midnight we plan to attack
The tyrant’s fortress will have to fall
Determined to win there’s no turning back
Hearts beating faster, eyes burn with hate
The battle’s about to begin
Take down the guard charge in the court
And search for the tyrant within

Running and killing and swinging the mace
The enemies heads gonna roll
Raging berserkers we plough through the flesh
Burning for vengeance and war

The end of a reign
An aeon of pain
For justice and freedom we call
Storming the gates
This unholy place
The palace of sin has to fall
Empire’s fall

Breaking through their defences
The enemies caught by surprise
Burning their quarters down to the ground
Fires and lighting the skies
Under the tower below in the dark
The master of evil resides
The sword in my hand I’m thrusting ahead
He will not escape – I’ll take his life

Screaming anger
Feel my hate
Your Name has been written
On this bloody blade


9. The Journey's End

When the night is over
And the smoke has finally cleared
We’re the last survivors
Without fear

The battlefield in silence
A solemn heroes grave
We walk among the ruins
We – the brave

Memories like dust in the wind
Finally at the journey’s end
Remember the time – I won’t repent
The traveller at the journey’s end
The journey’s end

So lost without a trace
I’m lost in my memories
Can’t imagine their faces
In secrecy

Reflecting their words
The alliance we’ve sworn
The hymns that I’ve heard
Now – I am torn


10. Back To Glory

Moonlight’s shine
Feel the emptiness inside
I’m all alone
Silence all around
Back in the reality but the vision still remains
I look in the mirror and I’ll never be the same

Voices
Calling me back again
Prayers
Towards the stars I send

We, the knights
Defenders of the right
United pride
Fought the battles side by side
These memories had changed my life for now and for all time
Counting scars on my face and I’m waiting for a sign

Misery and pain
Honesty and fame
Hope’s a burning flame
Back to glory
To stand in the light
To stand every fight
Dreams will never die
Back to glory

Once in a lifetime
To take the chance of fame
Forever and ever
They will know my name
