The Coming Of War

Absu


Evil 
Summoned to war 
Eternal conquest for power 
Gathering armies of death 
To fight and kill at will 
Sinister weapons of war 
Piercing metal and man 
Warriors 
Mounted on steeds 
Ride out into the mist 

Awaiting 
The signal to attack 
Swords clash and men fall to their death 
Aimless pawn 
Only to die by my hand 
Battle cry 
Blood stains upon his chest 

Endless 
Eternal Pain 
Thousands die for a king 
Wretched 
Weary souls 
Raging battle never ends 
Hatred 
Inflicting death 
Destroying the weak at heart 
Eternity 
Becomes less 
War has drawn to an end 

Overthrown 
The emperor falls in defeat 
Great halls 
Crack and decay with neglect 
Dethroned 
He cries out in vengeance 
Impaler 
Mark is words of death 

Shadows 
Crusades of the past 
Triumph through the fog 
Sunsets drip into dusk 
Flows like blood on my blade 
Massacre the feckless breed 
Dismiss all empty thrones 
Riding, beyond the clouds, damnation ends in despair 

Awaiting 
The signal to attack 
Swords clash and men fall to their death 
Aimless pawn 
Only to die by my hand 
Battle cry 
Blood stains upon his chest
