1. BORN OF RAGE (INTRO)

(Instrumental)


2. WITCHLORE

Standing alone in pain and dark beauty,
Slaves to the salvation of all.
Guardians of power at the gateways to hell,

Tainted by darkness to see what they fight,
Corrupted inside to hold back the night,
Wardens of hell holding Daemons at bay,

Witchlore. Covens of three.
Witchlore. Never set free.
Witchlore. Hunting their own.
Witchlore. Always alone.

Doomed to failure and turned from the light,
Hated by all yet still they fight,
Keeping at bay the end of the world.

Coven's of three for the taint's never far,
Bonded together by the pain in their hearts,
Burned alive so that the daemons must die.


Legion. Daemons of Hell.
Legion. Breach the seventh gate.
Legion. Armies of the night.
Legion. Burn all in our wake.


We walk, amongst the living.
We walk, amongst the dead.
Like ghosts, in your midst.
Where daemons, fear to tread.

Burn! The flames are climbing higher.
Burn! Another witch will die.
Burn! The flames are climbing higher.
Burn! Tonight a daemon dies.


3. 'TIL SHADE IS GONE (INTRO)

(Instrumental)


4. NEMESIS

'Til shade is gone 'til water is gone,
Into the shadow with teeth bared
Screaming defiance with the last breath,
To spit in sight-blinders eye upon the last day

Can you see? Do you feel? The fire in my eyes.
Can you see? Do you feel? The fires in my soul.
Can you see? Do you feel? The burning rage inside
Can you see? Do you feel? The blade between your eyes.

I am rage made flesh. Wreathed in flames and fury.
You left me for dead now vengeance is mine!

Come on - Raise the spears - Come on – Ooooowah!

I am the warrior, the inferno burns within me,
I am the spirit in the spears.
I am relentless; you stand for all that I despise,
And even as I die. I come for you.

[Chorus]
All that I am. All that I was.
You took from me everything I ever dreamed of.
All that I am. All that I was.
I am your nemesis and I bring war unto your world.

I am the blackened warrior, I am the darkened knight
I am your nemesis in flames in fury - You are mine
Burnt to ashes in your wake, the betrayal still remains
One ember is all it takes, Rise up, to war again.

I am rage made flesh. Wreathed in flames and fury.
You left me for dead now vengeance is mine!

[Chorus]

I will not be turned aside. We go to war.
I will never stand by. We go to war.
Raise the spears. Raise the spears. Raise the spears. We go to war.
Raise the spears. Raise the spears. Raise the spears. We go to war.


5. THE FROZEN TOWER

There's magic in my veins and steel in my bones,
My soul's ablaze with passion; warrior unknown,
I ride the endless winds upon the journey of our lives,
We seek the golden path for hope in these. Wild times.

I am the knight of pain a' shroud in black and bloody loss,
I raise my blade again and tears stream on down my face.
A slave to destiny, now peace waits only in my grave.
A hidden dream of love and truth; legend of the frozen wastes!

[Chorus]
One by one. I strike them down.
One by one. They fall to the ground.
One by one. Our spirits soar.
One by one. We are no more.

One by one. I strike them down. On through the heart of winter.
They fall to the ground. For a knight there is only duty.
Our spirits soar. Over the winds like eagles.
We are no more. But shadows on the winds of time.

[Chorus]

Through frozen ice-winds, across barren wastes,
Your darkest nightmare, Will rise again,
Bane of Asgard, Defend the way,
Blood of Warriors, We Rage!

On frozen planes, Like Daemons driven,
We're the tyrants, Blizzard beasts,
Our ancient blades, we still yet raise,
Fight for freedom, Impale!

Hosanna in excelsior
Hosanna for god‟s laws
Hosanna slay the heathens
Their blood will cleanse us all

Rage, our peace is broken, you en
Rage, we watch our world, burn and
Rage, you leave us nothing, we en
Rage, and all that‟s left, is our Rage


6. THE TIME FOR LIES

You're just another child with glass in their eye
The puzzle you play will never match up right
You‟re one more victim, playing the game
If you hold to the rules, they will drive, you insane

The time for lies is here,
I've lost so much and left behind,
a thousand shattered dreams,
An endless trail of broken lives,
a broken toy abandoned,
In place are glossy dreams,
to buy your life, and all it means.

Stand by your masters and cast the truth aside
Just because you want it, you are justified
I‟ll make it easy, you‟ll love your prison cell
You‟ll never even realise your life is hell

Give up your choices, give up your life!
You‟ve forgotten what it means to be alive

It‟s been written down, you were told the rules
Rich kids words on paper filled fear and lies for fools
So give up your freedom and we‟ll tell you how to die
What you know as real. Your truth. Is a lie.

The time for lies is here, The time for lies is now,
Will your really take the chance or will you close your eyes
The time for lies is here, The time for lies is now,
Will you really live your life or will you live a life in fear?

Will you really live your life and all, it, means?


7. FEYRIE

Heart as black as fresh hewn coal, Eyes as bright as emerald flames,
Her only goal is your redemption, to see you break their needless chains,
Hair that writhes around her shoulders, laugh that hearks of forest fires,
Feyrie seeks your minds distemper, to make you see that you‟re alive.

My aura now shares ice and fire, My minds aflame with needs desires
Volcano’s force that drives my heart, My passion flows like molten iron
There’s no, cage made can hold my heart, no chain can bind my open mind
You tried to blind me to my visions but I prevailed now bring the night

Shreds of hammered braided silver, woven amid the wild black curls,
Dark expands the mind‟s perception, light a tool enforce defines,
Spikes and rings and vials of poison, each one a charm or key or curse,
Abandon all the world that binds you, your freedom waits beyond these walls.

Radiant as the stars above, her veins that flow with ice and fire,
She twists your soul makes minds recall the freedom that your heart requires,
Lace and leather and silver trophies, hung and strewn with wild abandon,
She delights in your dissolution; true life requires chaos fire.

Freedom - You will not cage me.
Freedom - You cannot blind me
Freedom - My rage will destroy you.
Freedom - From the flames, my phoenix shall rise!

Slaves are we for eternity,
held in thrall by the fear in our hearts,
Shackled and bound under a burning sun,
we take pride in the chains we wear.

Slaves are we for eternity,
held in thrall by the fear in our hearts,
Shackled and bound in the land of the free,
we take pride in the chains we wear.

I am that which comes to free thee!


8. HIDDEN TRUTHS

Born in a world as a servant to them,
A slave to the rules that others dictate.
Living a life in a world of lies,
That which you knew you believed was real.
Obeying their laws, you do as they say,
Never stopping to wonder if this is the way.

Something aint right, why should they choose,
My life is my own; I do what I please.
They call the shots, should I obey?
What reason to harm? What could they gain?
They wouldn't lie; they work for our good,
Yet all around me my friends pay in blood.

Created by them this new patron of fury,
Blackness surrounds me; my life is a lie,
All that I knew; no justice at all,
For enslaving my life I‟ll master them all,
Vengeance riding on a lightning storm,
Destroy the bastards; I‟ll kill „em all.

Lies. Fed to me. Shadows hold death in their darkness.
Where is the one who bars us from the truth.


9. OF ICE AND SNOW

Shattered glass and frosted window, first chill gusts of carried cold,
Icy tang that rides the wind: A taste of the future as the nights draw in.
Eerie watch the land turn inward, colours drain from all that lives,
Wildlife scurrying asunder, all know what these winds do bring.

Darken days and fires burn, this change is more than you or I,
Foolish is the man sat quietly doing naught but watch the skies.
Steel on stone and axes biting, towering shelter taken down,
Piled high the cautious wisdom, life for life, war to survive.

Freeze. Forsaken. Ice. Encrusts your eyes.
White. This blinding nightmare. Night. Brings your demise.

Now abed and safely sleeping, wolves howl blindly moon obscured.
Dreams of icy falling patter, restless as the season turns.
Sunlight on a gleaming landscape, snow drifts on relentlessly,
Thin white mantle natures portent; winter‟s challenge for all to see.

Nights grow deeper, snows falls harder, rivers freeze and trees explode.
Storms of ice and killing winds that strip unwary flesh from bone,
Fires banked higher still ice invades, our homes these havens now besieged
by the mighty fist of winter crushing all in deathly freeze!

Storms of ice and killing winds that strip unwary flesh from bone,
Ice elves and witches from whence the North wind blows.


10. AND ON THE SEVENTH DAY (INTRO)

(Instrumental)


11. MASTER

And on the seventh day God lay back and with a wicked grin upon
His face declared, “I have wrought well, have I not, Master?”

Are you ready yet? I‟ll take you on a journey,
Show you a place you won‟t believe.
Come with me. I‟ll show you what I want you to see,
I‟ll show you everything I‟ve seen.

Close your eyes, that blackness you see?
I‟m in there; I‟m in your dreams.
Do you dream? In the dead cold blackness of the night,
I‟ll colour your dreams, give you the second sight.

This is my world. The lands you walk are what I create,
The answers you seek are mine to disclose.
I‟ll take your soul. Did you think it was just a game?
I‟ll tell you now there‟s more to this.

Bow down! I am the true light.
Bow down! I‟m the darkness in you.
Bow down! I am the dark lord.
Bow down! I‟m the master of you!


12. FREEDOM AND WRATH (OUTRO)

Close your eyes, look up to the heavens,
I‟ll show you a dream and I‟ll make it come true,
I‟ll show you a world filled with passion and honour,
And stand up high, a man proud before you.

In a world full of darkness, where evil‟s condoned,
By the words of grey rulers upon hidden thrones,
Where sin is defiance and law defines right,
And so few souls remain who carry the light.

I throw up my arms to the heavens in anger,
I slam down my fist in a gauntlet of rage,
For there is no rest until freedom‟s returned,
From the hands of the fearful, to the hearts of the brave.

So, stand up together, one and the same,
Brothers and sisters in blood and in pain,
Let no one tame us, rise up in wrath,
For we are the children and enough is enough!
