|
In the darkened days of old |
|
The law was the sword |
|
Alright |
|
Yes, it was long ago |
|
There was a strong man |
|
Who lived by the sword |
|
He was being chased |
|
By a strong and mighty hoard |
|
Lying in the bushes |
|
To hide from the rest |
|
He suddenly hears the cries |
|
Of a maiden in distress |
|
And you see flashing blades of steel |
|
Tear the flesh from the bone |
|
Cries of quarter is his last dying breath |
|
With one eye on the boat |
|
And the other on the woman |
|
He hastily flees from the rest |
|
Rowing day and night |
|
Not stopping in his way |
|
Though tales of woe were spoken by the girl |
|
He gently falls asleep |
|
Then awakes on the shore |
|
The story at last unfurls |
|
Alright |
|
Not knowing where they rested |
|
They awakened in a temple |
|
Of the shadows of that she fears |
|
Sleep ensnares the both of them |
|
And just like a dream |
|
A demon in black appears |
|
Running like the wind |
|
She startles the man |
|
Screaming cries of help |
|
You say it's not a dream |
|
These demons are real |
|
You need to get a hold of yourself |
|
Iron shadows |
|
Five demons in black |
|
Iron shadows |
|
The moonlight prepares the attack |
|
Not knowing where they rested |
|
They awakened in a temple |
|
Of the shadows seen in trees |
|
An ape, standing upright |
|
With hunger in his eyes |
|
It's death will come quickly with ease |
|
Slaying the beast |
|
A few inches from fate |
|
He hears many a crewmen die |
|
Running to the ship |
|
He captures the rest |
|
They set sail for the Eastern sky |
|
Alright |
|
Iron shadows |
|
Five demons in black |
|
Iron shadows |
|
The moonlight prepares the attack |
|
'Crucify the kings and |
|
Defile the queens |
|
Burn the cities in fire |
|
Slay the enemies |
|
See them driven before me |
|
This is my only desire |
