A new beginning, we go off into the throes
By blood and death, the blessed dynasty will grow
Driven by lust for wealth, for power, regal pride
Journey end around the world to bridge the great divide
To foreign lands we race in search of the unknown
In service to our God, and he upon the throne
Who among you shall resist us, the barbarous horde
Is a foreign threat we slaughter in the name of our God
Destined for greatness, we conquer all sinners and saints
Buried in their hearts of fear
Pray to our lord, death beneath the iron sword
All shall run from the tip of the spear
Blood on the shores of the damned
The battle over, but the war has just begun
On this mountain of death, behold the setting sun!
Come, young child, won’t come with me, be at one with the sky
Fear not the time, for at last your souls, your souls must fly
Through the fog of war, through the stench of death
Buried in the smallest corner survives the faintest breath
A child without a home, with tainted heart and broken bones
Witness to death, alone he seeks the answers to questions unknown
Silence the meek, Trample the weak, Hurdle the dead
Fight through the pain, nothing remains, It's all in your head
Strength to the end, Make no amends, Blood from the stone
Brothers in arms, fight by my side, for glory is yours!
Now, my child, as you cry, let your fears give you flight
For when you die, only then will you see through the darkness of night
Ever with you, here beside you, though the darkness may disguise you
Take my hand, you have my heart, now it’s time to play your part
