The Warriors Choice (Take Me Away)

Take me away,

Killing and burning, pushing my mind to the fray

Marching for days,

My men on the brink, pawns for their power games

I’m a warrior, just a man.

I’m doing the best that I can.

The banners they wave,

The horn it sounds, red and black are cast on the day

Pounding the line,

The flesh it smacks and the klank of the hammer, it calls

I’m a sinner, just a man

I’m doing the best that I can

And I won’t stop until I get what I want

Fighting for a world filled with order

Control with the book and the cloth

His sheep we are led to the slaughter

No sacraments for the army of dead

Land is taken, world’s are shaken

This fight is no longer mine

My axe is wet, wetter than ever

In a trance, but blood hits my face

Nature calls me asunder

In a world with frivolous wonder.

Violence, yes, but love and adventures for me

They call them pagan,

they call it satan

They flow free, with the streams and ale

No longer hesitation

My blood is freezing cold.

I finish off my kill

I watch his flesh unfold

A lull in the battle creeps

Their forces growing weak

I see they retreat

Left through the wood

Think quick, think fast

This chance won’t last

I’m sinner, just a man

And I’m doing the best that I can

I’ll be on the run for days

I’ll kill anyone in my way

I’m ready to taste the blade, if I must

Shedding my armor now

There is no turning back

Disguising my escape with murderous rage

Land is taken, world’s are shaken.

This fight is no longer mine

My axe is wet, wetter than ever

In a trance but blood hits my face.
