Break The Chains
“You must live for more”
Her song’s a silent scream
“Break the chains… break the chains”
A dream to die for
She softly sings no more
Welcome to madness – I cannot hear my fears and doubts
Hopeless – I’m drifting
I’m lost between the living and the dead
Chorus:
Down in the Vale she’s gone, where blood blossoms grow
Down in the Vale the Reaper swings
I’ll be her vengeance
I won’t live on my knees
I will fulfill Eo’s dream
Through the flames you’ll see me
You’ll be mine, believe me
This is the moment I long for
By this Haemanthus I swear
Damn her voice and damn her dream
I’ll sow a song against their greed
Break the chains of fear and loss
Smash the chains that binds us all
We are all parts of a machine
We don’t have time to dream
Forbidden dance, forbidden songs
Oh I can’t take no more
It’s frightening, exciting
To stand alone and watch
As she stood so fragile, so proud and strong and pure...
Before the gallows pole...
“My love, my love
Remember the cries
When winter died for spring skies
They roared and roared
But we grabbed our seed
And sowed a song
Against their greed
My son, my son
Remember the chains
When gold ruled with iron reins
We roared and roared
And twisted and screamed
For ours, a vale
of better dreams”
(Pierce Brown "Red Rising")
Sharpened by hate
I’m Eo’s vengeance
Strengthened by love
I will die standing than live on my knees
I will - remove your crown
Her song is silenced but it lives with the wind
A tale of winter done
Her song’s a silent scream
“Break the chains… break the chains”
A dream to die for
Still… always echoes in my mind
Welcome to darkness – I cannot feel my arms and legs
Hopeless – I’m drifting
I’ve lost my way, there’s nothing left I fear
Chorus:
Down in the Vale she’s gone, where blood blossoms grow
Down in the Vale the Reaper swings
I’ll be her voice forever
Break all the chains
I will become Eo’s dream

Rise For Dominion

Rise For Dominion
"Savagery, Ascendance, Decadence.."
I look deep in myself and I see
The man I used to be
This pain tears my soul
The anger boils my blood
Is this reality?
A dream forever
Or just a cold dream
The dead may see
In their eternal sleep?
A part of me remains
But I am no more
I’m alive my love, I can feel your shadow everywhere
Chorus:
I am the Reaper and Death is my shadow
I came from nowhere
Without a name
This is my task
I bring you evil
Vengeance and War
From the Gods Underground
The hand of Fate itself
Trapped in a flesh cage
My spirit fails
Walls made of lies
As I lay there alone
The wolf in Man
The chosen one
When Ares sound his horn
It’s time to hunt
Then she lay beside me
Fire and autumn leaves
Changing my mind and dreams
Chorus:
I am the Reaper and Death is my shadow
I came from nowhere
Without a name
Rise as their son
For glory and power
Rise for dominion
Honors to take
The sword of Mars itself

A Wolf Amongst Lions

A Wolf Amongst Lions
My blood tears falling
To feed his ambitious desires
My razor wrapped around my arm
The king of shadows
An innocent pawn to my plan
‘’ I’ll forge a crown upon your head
Just let me be your hand of retribution ‘’
I am yours forever
We shall stand together
Will rise above all others
Mars is yours, forever
Chorus:
Hear the song of my blade
Be aware now
The killing dance of a conquering tribe
Hear the howling of fate
There is war at hand
Blessing of Iron and Blood
A blessing of Mars
The dice is cast
The champions of Houses will clash
In the end
Only one will prevail
A wolf amongst lions will reign
I’ve lost myself in this endless battle of lies
Her dream, it isn’t mine to sacrifice
And all at once the path was revealed to me
I finally will rise
They’ll know the abyss of civil war
War, civil, cruel and ancient
Shall divide forever
The wrath of Mars has risen
Justice be done upon you
Chorus:
Hear the song of my razor
Fear now
The killing dance of a conquering tribe
Hear the howling of fate
There is war at hand
Blessing of Iron and Blood
A blessing of Mars
The dice is cast
The heavens will spit fire and steel
In the end
From the ruins I rise
A wolf amongst lions will rise
Feel the rage in my soul
Fear now
The bloody dance of a murderous tribe
Hear the call of the Reaper
For Iron Rain
Do not forget nor forgive
The sword of the slaves
The dice is cast
The heavens will bleed Iron Rain
In the end
From the ashes I rise
A wolf amongst lions will rise

Iron Rain
04:10
|

|
Iron Rain
Descending from heavens
Immortal armored angels
Wings of steel and fire
We come with vengeance dire
Death begets death
And ever more
For wrath and glory
Like the Conquerors of Old
We called for the Iron Rain
To bring an end to this poisonous reign
Chorus:
To the end of the world
To the empires of stars
We are chosen to light the fire
We are wounding our way
To the tyranny’s end
Set flame to this veil of darkness
Here lies the dream
Watch the embers ablaze
Soft breeze to raging wind
Kingdoms to raze
Slashing the skies with glory
Immortal for a moment in time
Chorus:
To the end of the world
For the glory of Mars
We are chosen to bring the fire
We are wounding our way
Through the thundering clouds
Iron Lucifer falls from Heaven
Descend
And conquer
Descend
Wings of fire
Over the hills
And mountains
Across the oceans
Locusts of steel
We burn
We bleed
We reign
With Iron will
Iron rain
Iron gold
Descending
To Worlds ending
Death Descending
Skies are burning
Chorus:
To the end of the world
For the glory of Mars
We are chosen to bring the fire
We are wounding our way
Through the thundering clouds
Iron Lucifer falls from Heaven
Christened mortal again
With a shattering blast
Dreams denied, drowned in the mire
I am wounding my way
All are fallen to ruin
The Reaper is now upon you

I Am Hell And Hell Is Me
06:48

I Am hell And hell Is Me
Death follows wherever I go
The Reaper, the Bringer of War
For I am hell and hell is me
(This path lies before us)
Descend, then rise…to be free
‘’Achilles was just a fool
A warning for fools
Like me and you’’
And now this ‘’end of the world’’
(An offer divine)
We’re far beyond return
Chorus:
Stay silent until the End
Dead silence
Reigns this end of the world
It hurts so much
To know that everything is gone
We’re far beyond return
Descend, then rise…divine
We storm against the highest walls
We roar as lions brave
For our fathers feed this soil
Through their timeless grave
Son, can you hear me?
At night
When souls afraid to sleep
I walk among the living
Son, look at me
Your stolen breath enrages me
Your unborn eyes
Watch from the Vale
This world I’ll burn for you
Tear down walls of stone
The Reaper is finally home
Their world, dearest child
Will die by my hand
Ten years from now
Fifty
A thousand
No matter the cost
We will break the chains
I stand in your way
My will is Iron
My rage is Fire
You cannot stop us
We are the tide
Rise with glory
With purpose and iron will
Eo’s dream ignites my heart
The Reaper calls for blood
Chorus:
Deep silence before the End
Stretching forever
To places only the lost have been
This is who we are
The sum of our deeds and dreams
We’re far beyond return
Descend, then rise…divine
We storm against your dying empire
Our blood is liquid fire
The hammer is our rightful rage
The anvil’s our desire

Wound My Way

Wound My Way
Welcome to the end of all
Welcome to the void of forevermore
Where time stands still
Pretending to be alive
One with the Dark
With stone and broken soul
This living grave
Into my silent prison
Into my womb of stone
Into the suffering nowhere
Time has frozen turned to stone
If this is the end
I’ll rage towards the end
‘’When all is lost
Honor demands death’’
(…he once said)
Chorus:
All deeds that last
Are painted in blood
The darkness once whispered to me
All men can break
But I broke long ago
I will ascend from this grave
As I’ve done before
Welcome to the New World
The beginning of the end now
Where Society’s no more
Defending
The weak and lost
We stand as one above this living hell you choose for us
We live our lives in fear
(Fear) of failure, death and pain
This is where the line is drawn
Stand with me and fear no more
We are not Red
Not Blue or Gold or Grey
We are humanity
We are the Tide
Chorus:
All deeds that last
Are painted in blood
Through suffering and pain we become brave
We will arise
Wounding the way
We are the Tide and we’ll rise
Break the bloodydamn chains
Today I declare your rule to be…
…to be at its end despite the darkness you spread
Despite the night you summon upon
We’ll rage towards it
We’ll howl and we’ll fight
Until our final breath
Welcome to the new world
Welcome to the end of Golden Reign
And tyranny
Uprising
To break the chains
And if we fall others will bear the torch
Into the mines of Mars
And on the dunes of sulfur seas
On glacial valleys, cities
Stormy oceans
Fight until...
..Justice is earned
Reclaim the stolen lives
Fear’s no more
The Reaper shows the way…to war!
Chorus:
All deeds that last
Are painted in blood
The darkness can whisper no more
Let others dream
Let others sing
We chosen few are the fire
We are Eo’s dream

Obsidian Angel

Obsidian Angel
Among my friendly faces
There’s one I miss the most
Now he’s home by Eo’s side
Warm blood stains the snow
It is too late…
Now it’s out of my hand
Beyond control
The frozen prince
He went away
(On darkening clouds)
His eyes went dark
On the land he called home he has fallen
A child returning home
With hope within his heart
Where’s the winter’s daughter
Before his eyes are darkened
Valhalla calls out for her son
We shall meet again
-We shall meet again
Across the Vale one day
Stay and fight and live for more
Chorus:
Valhalla’s gates are open wide
Embrace the warrior
The prince of ice
My shield, my guardian angel
Has fled this burning world
My wall, my friend, my brother
Down in the Vale he’s gone
We ride to war against the gods of our disgrace
See them bleed and know the lies are over
Still I’m confused
If I was dreaming
The day I realized I’ve been another fool
Now tell all who hear
The Valkyries will ride to war
The old oaths are burned
The gods have proven false
…now gone
Among the warrior races
There’s one they fear the most
And now the whip has been removed
The beast broke its chains
Slaves be no more
And now it’s out of hand
Beyond control
Obsidian wrath
Valkyries ride by our side
With eyes burn red
From the land of the ice forms the storm
And as we ride to war
We forge a path to hope
Hear all fallen fathers
Watch your sons and daughters
Valhalla crowns it's would be king
We shall meet again
-We shall meet again
Across the Vale one day
Stand and fight and live for more
Chorus:
Beyond the gates and Asgard’s ruins
They march
The warriors
The warriors of ice
For vengeance and betrayal
For lies and slavery
For honor and remembrance
For the fallen prince of ice

Beyond The Gates

Beyond The Gates
From death I rise
Beyond Their lies
I forge Deceit in the night
We rise as vengeance
The bonds of brotherhood of Man
A force beyond your ways and plans
Your hollow reign of dark desires
Will be brought to ashes
By the Reaper's hand
Vanity
Will spill your blood
Sanity
Removed from Sight
In the end
Justice be done
Razor screams
Your reign is falling
It ends in silence NOW
We shall not be led astray
On our way to paradise
On this night we’ll burn away
Won’t kneel, won’t pray
Chorus:
Thus now it ends
With your silent screams
Nightmare became your dreams
Upon the throne of Society
Lifeless your cruelty bleeds
Beyond the gates of the universe
Beyond the silent abyss
We will not rest upon victory
We shall unite human race
Fight! Fight!
Fight to the last
Fight now, for Mars and for Human Glory
Let justice reign…
In your halls of silence
Where your reign’s eternal
Wolves are at your doorstep
Howling vengeance, roar infernal
Infernal!
So it is done
The Sovereign bleeds
Her fall for the worlds to see
The End of All
Beyond these walls
Beyond her fall
Beyond the shadows that darkened us all
Beyond her words
Beyond her lies
Beyond corruption and darkness she brought
Beyond the Gates
Beyond the Sun
Beyond the shape and names of gods of the past
Beyond this Storm
Beyond this Fall
Beyond this Night
The Dawning of the Son, The Red who rose above
A wolf amongst the lions
In this night that knives seek vengeance
A conqueror beyond
Color or name
Let justice fall upon thee
For your crimes and lies you shall meet fate
Vanity
Will spill your blood
Sanity
Removed from Sight
In the end
Justice be done
Razor screams
Your reign has fallen
It ends in silence NOW
We shall not be led astray
On our ascent to paradise
On this day we break the chains
As dreamt one day
Chorus:
Thus now it ends
With your silent screams
Nightmare became your dreams
Upon the throne of Society
Lifeless your cruelty bleeds
Beyond the gates of the universe
Beyond the silent abyss
We will not rest upon victory
We shall unite human race
Beyond the shadows of innocence
Beyond oblivious graves
Ashes once covered intolerance
A million tears remained
Beyond the suns of the universe
Mankind in glory could rise
Beyond the void of eternity
A world within Eo’s eyes

Borrowing to different saturated metal sub-genres does not guarantee quality. But when a band manages to leverage said sub-genres, the humble yet hilarious listener is turned to a silent witness of a thrilling work of art.
