1. GREAT HEATHEN ARMY

Throw the pagan king into this pit of serpents
He was a threat to Ella's greed
See the heathens rise and fight for honor
Tyr will guide us into rightful victory

Take the Saxons, make them beg and plead for mercy
For they will come to cleanse our sins
From the shores we see the Saxon army
See the raven fly, it's Odin by our side

Seeking revenge, the Heathen Army
They'll bring the empire to its knees
The pagans strike, the Saxons fall
Show no mercy, make them crawl

One thousand heathens breach the gates
Pray to your god, you'll meet your faith
Your kingdom's falling one by one
We take control, nowhere to run

Fourteen years Ironside and Brethren battled
Their blades are stained with nobles blood
From the hoard we hear destiny calling
Marching to the gates we see Valhalla

Seeking revenge, the Heathen Army
They'll bring the empire to its knees
The pagans strike, the Saxons fall
Show no mercy, make them crawl
Seeking revenge, the Heathen Army
They'll bring the empire to its knees
The pagans strike, the Saxons fall
Show no mercy, make them crawl


2. BLACK FLAG

A storm is raging on the open sea
We are the outcasts
No friends of sophistry
Betrayed, banishment
Embracing chaos, the only creed
Scourge of nations
The empires enemies
Betrayed, banishment

With the stroke of a pen
A treaty is signed
Now deemed as outlaws
Once employed by the crown
With letters of marque
Giving us sanctioned plunder
No longer the fools
Or pawns in their game
Of economic warfare
Do they really believe
They control us?
Our greatest strength is independence

We live out our last days
With barrels of rum, black powder
And the clash of the blades

You will fire the guns
Upon my command
Unleash full broadside
Destroying the mast
The rigging, the sails
The shrapnel devastating
Boarding the sloop
Flintlock in hand, one shot
Grenades are flying
Running them through
With my cutlass
The blood and the steel
The slashing and screaming

We live out our last days
With barrels of rum, black powder
And the clash of the blades

Stories foretold
Of silver and gold
And the empire's greed
Well, god damn the queen
We'll string up the kings
We're rogues of the seas
The freest of men
Fly no colors at all
And our creed is our own
We spit on our hands
Hoist the black flag
And begin to slit throats

We live out our last days
With barrels of rum, black powder
And the clash of the blades

Stories foretold
Of silver and gold
And the empire's greed
Well, god damn the queen
We'll string up the kings
We're rogues of the seas
The freest of men
Fly no colors at all
And our creed is our own
We spit on our hands
Hoist the black flag
And begin to slit throats

Stories foretold
Of silver and gold
And the empire's greed
Well, god damn the queen
We'll string up the kings
We're rogues of the seas
The freest of men
Fly no colors at all
And our creed is our own
We spit on our hands
Hoist the black flag
And begin to slit throats


3. RAVEN WING

A silhouette casts black shadows
Along the desert floor
Above the trees and mountains
The raven wing soars
A totem of creation
A sign of life and death
Messenger of spirit realms
Its magic never rests
No, no, no
No, no, no, no
It never rests

When in your darkest moments
And you're trapped in deep despair
You'll never see me coming
But I am always there
I am the wise shape-shifter
And I am always there

If you're choked with inhibition
And you've sown the seeds of doubts
It is my full intention
I will seek you out
I am fate's magician
I'll strip you of your doubt

With blackened wings I fly
My mystic spirit guide
An ever watchful sentinel
The raven at my side
With blackened wings I fly
My magic spirit guide
An omen of my transformation
On raven wings I fly

So strip away your vain facade
It's time to face your higher self
Open up your spirit
Begin to trust yourself
I will help raise you
From deepest pits of hell

With blackened wings I fly
My mystic spirit guide
An ever watchful sentinel
The raven at my side
With blackened wings I fly
My magic spirit guide
An omen of my transformation
On raven wings I fly

With blackened wings I fly
My mystic spirit guide
An ever watchful sentinel
The raven at my side
With blackened wings I fly
My magic spirit guide
An omen of my transformation
On raven wings I fly


4. THE VEIL

Another long and restless night
The pain inside
You've fought it all these years
And now you're growing tired

You won't suffer very long
It's almost time
I've waited, oh, so long
To feel our souls unite

I know you feel me
I know you'll see me when it's over
My one and only
You won't be lonely when it's over

When I was taken from your side
That tragic night
I was peering through the veil
A respite from that life

You will love it on this side
It's paradise
Release the pain, just let it go
It's almost time

I know you feel me
I know you'll see me when it's over
My one and only
You won't be lonely when it's over

Come to me my love
I am waiting
Feel my pull
Through the veil

I know you feel me
I know you'll see me when it's over
My one and only
You won't be lonely when it's over
I know you feel me
I know you'll see me when it's over
My one and only
You won't be lonely when it's over

I know you feel me
I know you'll see me when it's over
My one and only
You won't be lonely when it's over
I know you feel me
I know you'll see me when it's over
My one and only
You won't be lonely


5. SEVEN HEADED WHORE

Lord of flies, lord of death, lord of hate
Deceive the masses in the dark, seal their fate
Divide and conquer keep the wicked in control
Hellfire on earth feeds its stated goals

Fallen angels, ancient demons

Seven heads, seven kings, ten horns
Ride the dragon heed the seven headed whore
As the peasants feast on drunken fornication
They feed their children to the beast abomination

Fallen angels, ancient demons

Anointed by the crown
The vile heads of state
Form the evil kingdom
Seven headed whore
Anointed by the crown
The vile heads of state
Form the evil kingdom
Seven headed whore

False gods seed division and deceit
Sovereign city holds the secrets that we seek
Lift the veil as the battle rages on
Kingdoms fall with the whore of Babylon

Fallen angels, ancient demons

Anointed by the crown
The vile heads of state
Form the evil kingdom
Seven headed whore
Anointed by the crown
The vile heads of state
Form the evil kingdom
Seven headed whore


6. THE RELIC (PART 1)

He was drawn into the shamans sacred place
Where the relic calls his name
Just a minion in its game
In a trance like state, a vessel for its needs
Oh, on innocence it feeds
The relic whisked away

From the window he sees his father coming home
From his trips around the world
He feels its presence drawing near
Clenching tightly to this evil heinous thing
His father gives the gift to him
He feels the power from within

It awakens preying on this child
And its evil seeping in
A millennia begins
As the tears fall from the shaman's eyes
The boy is filled with sin
And corruption swells within

The relic's evil grows and twists within the boy
Entombed and bound within his soul
He sees his flesh begin to crawl
Ancient being spews and fills him with its hate
Oh, and death will pave its way
Building kingdoms of dismay

It awakens preying on this child
And its evil seeping in
A millennia begins
As the tears fall from the shamans eyes
The boy is filled with sin
And corruption swells within
It awakens preying on this child
And its evil seeping in
A millennia begins
As the tears fall from the shamans eyes
The boy is filled with sin
And corruption swells within

As he looks in his father's eyes
Life drains from him
Blood spills, painting the earth
Beneath his feet
Anointed by death
His path engrained
The relic sleeps no more


7. GHOST DANCE (AWAKEN THE ANCESTORS)

(No lyrics available)


8. BROTHERS

In a thousand lifetimes
We have sailed the seven seas
Climbed the highest mountains
We have crossed the desert plains
Fought and died in many battles
It feels like an endless war
Warring sprits take their toll
Finding strength with kindred souls

I will help carry your pain
For me I know you'll do the same
Especially through the hardest times
I'm always standing by your side
Whether lawless and enraged
Born in chaos for the stage
We are meant to live this life
Getting strong with every fight

Brothers standing side by side
Our bond will never falter
Brothers ready for the fight
Forged with strength and honor
Brothers standing side by side
We'll set the world on fire
Brothers ready for the fight
Take our sprits higher

The ties that bind us will not break
Many others will forsake
Attempt to conquer and divide
All have failed, some have tried
Moving forward we will triumph
And our trust will never crumble
Every challenge we will face
Our bond is stronger everyday

Brothers standing side by side
Our bond will never falter
Brothers ready for the fight
Forged with strength and honor
Brothers standing side by side
We'll set the world on fire
Brothers ready for the fight
Take our sprits higher

Brothers standing side by side
Our bond will never falter
Brothers ready for the fight
Forged with strength and honor
Brothers standing side by side
We'll set the world on fire
Brothers ready for the fight
Take our sprits higher


9. DEFIANCE

They will try to crush your spirit
Everyday just trying to bear it
Dire thoughts to escape this suffering
Tear this pain away
With the blade to your wrist
Something in you says you must resist
They are weak you are strong, accept this
You must take control

You are rising
The strength inside you
With your defiance you will not be broken
This torment
Has its reasons
Your defiance takes your spirit higher

Parasites that try to hurt you
Manipulate and strip your virtue
You are the master of yourself
They will never take away
Smash through the wall of their hate
Just pawns to insecurities
They decay in sorrow and rage
Their malice fades away

You are rising
The strength inside you
With your defiance you will not be broken
This torment
Has its reasons
Your defiance takes your spirit higher

Never falter
Find your solace
Rise! Fight!
No more weakness!
Rise! Fight!
Exile torment!
Rise! Fight!

Wiping tears and blood from your face
Rise above the cowards of disgrace
Realize they're just as beaten
Overcome the fear
You must know they can't break your soul
You are strong, stronger than you know
Their power inside is fiction
Oppressor is defied

You are rising
The strength inside you
With your defiance you will not be broken
This torment
Has its reasons
Your defiance takes your spirit higher
You are rising
The strength inside you
With your defiance you will not be broken
This torment
Has its reasons
Your defiance takes your spirit higher


10. CLEAR THE WAY (DECEMBER 13TH, 1862)

They came across the ocean
In search of liberty
Escaping persecution
Famine and poverty
Signed up for bloodshed
New home a battleground
Send in the Irish
So courageous and renowned

Sons of Erin
Marching gallantly
Into a storm of lead
Forward! Clear the way!
Sons of Erin
Charging valiantly
Across that bloody space
Forward! Clear the way!

The hills alive with murder
The sky so cold and grey
The general gives the order
Irish clear the way!
Bodies fall like leaves in autumn
From the wall at Marye's heights
Shot and shell ripping through them
A cold horrific sight

Sons of Erin
Marching gallantly
Into a storm of lead
Forward! Clear the way!
Sons of Erin
Charging valiantly
Across that bloody space
Forward! Clear the way!

Intrepid sons with heads held high
Go where glory awaits you
Your absolution under fire
If the lord above takes you
Fight, stand tall, prevail
Your brothers surround you
Fight, stand tall, prevail
Your courage defines you

Charge through the dead and dying
No surrender no retreat
Their brothers paid the price
They'll never smell defeat
Raise high the emerald colors
For all the field to see
They charged into the slaughter
With faith and dignity

Sons of Erin
Marching gallantly
Into a storm of lead
Forward! Clear the way!
Sons of Erin
Charging valiantly
Across that bloody space
Forward! Clear the way!

Intrepid sons with heads held high
Go where glory awaits you
Your absolution under fire
If the lord above takes you
Fight, stand tall, prevail
Your brothers surround you
Fight, stand tall, prevail
Your courage defines you

Intrepid sons with heads held high
Go where glory awaits you
Your absolution under fire
If the lord above takes you
Fight, stand tall, prevail
Your brothers surround you
Fight, stand tall, prevail
Your courage defines all you
