[Chorus]

Rome will burn

Burn in hate

Cleanse our lands

Desecrate

Heed the call

One and all

On we march

Toward the fall

Rome, the very name evokes the fury in our hearts

They promised justice, truth and light, but they conned us from the start

I was once a man of peace, a farmer of green fields

But they stole my joy when they seized my land, the scars will never heal

Corruption running rampant, I see it day by day

Enslave our kin, enslave our lands, to keep “the mob” at bay

My wife was slain, my sons enchained, more anguish than I could bear

There was a dream once that was Rome; that dream consumed my nightmares

The time has come for vengeance, the pigs must be bled

Annihilate for the motherland, avenge our blessed dead

Hold the severed heads up high for all of Rome to see

The reign of tyrants ends tonight, at long last we are free

[Chorus]

[Guitar Solo]

That tyrant race from mighty Rome it seems is ripe for plunder

Slow rot spanning centuries, the Empire torn asunder

Scores of Huns, barbarians, storm the palace walls

Looting, raping, pillaging, we sack the fabled halls

The fatted calf is shedding blood, onward march for the kill

A trophy held in majesty, at last we’ll have our fill

The scourge of Rome has come undone, a bloated crippled beast

The face of wrath is black and red, the tribes from the North and East

Strive for death my brothers, show them no mercy

No woman, child, left alive, lest their vengeance breed

Raze the Empire to the ground, usher in an age of darkness

One thousand years will pass before the Romans rise again

[Chorus]
