lyrics

He feels the spear into his chest
With his hands, he is covering the wound
Suddenly there is no pain, only memories
Memories of a warrior who gave his life for freedom

Images of his first battle become alive
Like a dream they invade his dying thoughts
His first kill with a swing of his blade
Tearing flesh spilled blood all over his plate
The first trauma and the pain he felt
During a siege in an unknown country

Flaming arrows lighting the sky
War machines firing at the walls
Cavalry and infantry waiting the call
A divine sign to attack and please the Gods

Cold were those nights
Cold like the hearts of fallen men
Far away from home he was fighting
His destiny at last to meet

Under the starless sky he shed a tear
For his death is what he ever wanted
A glorious one defending his land and king
With dozen of foes slew by his sword

A brave man devoted his life to the crown
Fighting side by side with his brothers in arms
Spreading death and tremor to their enemies
Their steel and shield unmatched by anyone

The second (03:01) I heard that angry bellow gurgling upwards as from the depths of hell, conquering the composition, rising in intensity, and climaxing more than half a minute later (a geyser of blood spouting up from Tartaros, breaching subterranean roofs and spewing forth onto the face of the earth), I was engrossed hook, line and sinker. Drawn into the underworldly dark. Vocal performances like these never fail to conjure a grin on my face. The Disillusioned One
