Iuz the Old Lyrics


Fiend-spawn, demigod son of Abyssal consummation

Bringer of pain, avatar of eternal castigation

Elven lord's bane, from a City of Skulls his armies ride forth

Chaos shall reign, civilization shall burn at his whim

Black-heart, sorcery culled from matriarch's cursed lore

Binder of fiends, dark alliances forged with the Queen of Spores

Blighter of dreams, from the west a shadow grows ever longer

Reaper of screams,  cries are torn from the throats of the dying

Cast down, entombed in a prison of coldest stone

Patient he waits, dark the day that he shall come reclaim his throne

Pawns in the dark, made to serve at wizard's cruelest behest

Heroes betrayed, the old one set free from his shackles

Kingdoms shall fall, shattered by war

By our hands they are undone

Nations shall drown in oceans of gore

By the will of the old one

Iuz the Old!

Iuz the Old! Harbinger of War

Iuz the Old!

Iuz the Old! The cambion king

Iuz the Old!

Iuz the Old! The lord of all Oerth

Iuz the Old!

Iuz the Old rides forth

Called forth, hordes of darkness assemble at his command

Lords in the north shall be made to bow before his demands

Wearing the face of the winter god thought to be Vatun

United in hate, Stonehold swears its oath to his foul rune

Battered down, lie the gates of the Shield Lands (citadels)

Writhing in pain, their defenders gasp a last farewell

Kingdoms shall fall, shattered by war

By our hands they are undone

Nations shall drown in oceans of gore

By the will of the old one

Iuz the Old!

Iuz the Old! Harbinger of War

Iuz the Old!

Iuz the Old! The cambion king

Iuz the Old!

Iuz the Old! The lord of all Oerth

Iuz the Old!

Iuz the Old rides forth

Ride! Now! to the ends of the earth

Slay all those who defy the master

Tear down the walls of Greyhawk

Lay claim to our prize

From the ashes a new age shall rise

From the ashes a new age shall rise

Ride! Now! Scourge of the throne

Gather their heads for the master

Tear down the kings of all Oerth

Lay claim to our prize

From the ashes a new age shall rise

From the ashes a new age shall rise

From the ashes a new age shall rise

From the ashes a new age shall rise

From the ashes a new age shall rise!
