FIGHT! WAR! Blood and steel! FIGHT! WAR! Blood and steel! War had come to Aethica The walls came crumbling down All in the name of regicide A necromancer usurps the crown The blood flows in the roads Ashes and embers fill the air Corpses rot in their homes The Blood God smiles within his lair You'll be crushed by the weight the undead swarm The fire in the belly of the beast will keep you warm But through the blood and steel a Warrior will rise To fulfill the prophecy and keep our Metal dreams alive They searched the vaults and the castle gates The burned the temples to the ground Said the necromancer to the Blood God "The Rod of Power could not be found" Oh, terrifying anger was the reply The Blood Demon spoke of another path The necromancer feared for his life He dared not incur the demon's wrath You'll be crushed by the weight the undead swarm The fires in the belly of the beast will keep you warm But through the blood and steel a Warrior will rise To fulfill the prophecy and keep our Metal dreams alive (Solo: Lars) You'll be crushed by the weight the undead swarm The fires in the belly of the beast will keep you warm The lost prince is unaware of what lies in store The Rod of Power lies in wait for him and more But through the blood and steel a Warrior will rise To fulfill the prophecy and keep our Metal dreams alive Ugh!
