Twilight Hammer

Slaughter at the Gates of Udun

Twilight Hammer


So begins the final march
Hope has turned to mourning
Clouds have gathered above the arch
Hear the thunder storming
The battlefield is bleak and grim
The soldier's faces frail
Nazgul haunt the skies now dim
Above the Udun vale

Death awaits
Behind black gates
Hear wraiths cry
Pierced by the Eye

The emissary the prophet
Foretells the doom of man
Eyeless mouth of Sauron
Lieutenant of black land
He grips the halflings tokens
A plague upon their spirit
The hour of death has come
The final chapter writ

The hopeless chieftains falter
The ring is in his hands
Death's course cannot be altered
His rule shall scour the lands
The final stand is made
Not on their knees they'll die
For life has been forebade
In thousands shall they lie

Death awaits
Behind black gates
Hear wraiths cry
Pierced by the Eye

Now the gates burst open
The blackened army draws forth
His song of death shall be sung
In all corners of the earth
Long is the Dark Lord's hand
No will of force can save
Horrid ends to those who fight
And the rest live as his slaves

They die!

Now the onslaught begins
Steel clashes on steel
Wicked the Orcish grins
See the humans reel

The host of Mordor comes
Before it all things die
Relentless pounding wardrums
All praise in hellish cry... Sauron!

Sauron!

Crimson colors the field
Splintered is the spear
Broken is the shield
Rampant runs the fear

The host of Mordor comes
Before it all things die
Relentless pounding wardrums
All praise in hellish cry... Sauron!

Sauron!

From his tower his gaze pierces all
Can turn all hearts to stone
Death a blessing to all who stand
Beneath his Eye alone

None shall defy the Dark Lord
None shall defy the Dark Lord

From his tower his army passes now
To cover the lands in shadow
Consumed with hatred for all things good
Burning their souls are hollow

None shall defy the Dark Lord
None shall defy the Dark Lord

The slaughter at the gates of Udun
The final folly of man
To hope to defeat the Great Eye
Lord of all the lands

None shall defy the Dark Lord
None shall defy the Dark Lord
