1. Princess of Steel
Riding out of the bloodred haze of the battlefield,
leaving their first blood and triumph behind them and
guided by the gods of war and thunder,
they reached the temple of the warrior-goddess,
which lemurian priests call the princess of steel.
Warriors used to cut out the hearts of their fallen enemies
to temple a virgin sword on her altar. And so did The Hood.
They prayed for her alliance in their holy crusade for metal.
A mighty storm arose and blew out their candles
and in the middle of the dark she stood in flesh and blood: the mighty princess of steel.
Embarassed, shaky and full of fear the priests fled the temple.
Her long red hair was shaking in the wind as she pointed her
mighty sword to the warriors breasts - one by one:
Namor, Nightblade, Mortiiz and The Hood
And so they were honoured, allegiance was sworn
in the name of all into metal and the warrior-goddess herself: the princess of steel.
Back on the battlefields of this world they felt the strength of
her power raving in their veins. And the last one you see in their eyes when they raise their
sword agianst you is her spirit, the spirit of the princess of steel.
2. Metal Crusaders
Dark angels on countless flags – tenthousand roaring!
Their banners torn to rags – their soldiers on a crucifix!
With swords drawn, held high – conquest to conquest!
When angels ride out of the sun – noone can stop us!
With iron fists and iron will! Metal takes over!
With iron fists and iron will! Metal takes over!
Wizards and ancient gods – stood all against us!
We impaled their rotting heads – on an iron crucifix!
Take your sword and follow us – to the stars we ride!
Soaked in blood and battle`s pride – side by side!
Metal crusaders – burning, killing, fighting, looting
Metal crusaders - on our ride the earth is bleeding
Metal crusaders – burning, killing, fighting, looting
Metal crusaders - on our ride the earth is bleeding
Seven cities, seven crowns – warlords of metal!
Birds of prey, beasts of war – 666!
Stomping iron warmachines – cold-blooded fury!
Entering the dragon`s lair – in search of glory!
With iron fists...
Wizards and ancient gods – stood all against us!
We impaled their rotting heads – on an iron crucifix!
Take your sword and follow us – to the stars we ride!
Soaked in blood and battle`s pride – side by side!
Chorus: Metal crusaders...
3. Realm of Dragons
The church bell is ringing at the sight of dragonsails!
A screaming and crying, bring in the women first!
In a hailstorm of arrows they`re climbing up the hill.
Their swords, shields and axes are gleaming in the sun.
Dying in battle for Odin -
northmen`s glory, northmen`s honour.
For god`s grace and glory we fight with iron hearts!
Too many are falling, killed by the heathen blades!
The vikings are storming and overcome our walls -
the rage of the northmen has to be cooled by blood!
Dragons crossed the northern seas
in search for gold and glory.
In 793 A.C. they stormed our shores with fury.
From Scotland down to England
their battlecries were roaring.
The realm of dragons – hell-descent,
destiny`s conjuring.
The bite of their axes – crushed our armour plates.
The harvest of warcraft – we paid in martyrs blood.
Our lord, the allmighty, has turned his back on us!
The battle is over – they crush the holy cross!
Dying...
Their legend is growing, telltold from coast to coast.
The devils from Norway struck fear into our hearts.
The claws of the raven has claimed the northern realm.
A fortune in murder – they sailed right out of hell.
Dragons...
4. At the Iron Gates of Hades
Bound in chains to my candle, I feel the flicker of life.
Was it worth all this struggle, all these battles and strife?
In the haze of delusion, deep in a mirror I fell. Was it real or illusion?
I saw the city of hell...
Majestic walls lay before me, a lightmare in gold and fire, and I felt desire.
I saw the pits, I saw the torment, the sulphur and pain, and I went insane.
My black soul on a funeral pyre. A glowing shape with horns on fire.
The flames around me burning higher, eat away my dark desire.
At the iron gates of hades - I`m burning for you!
At the iron gates of hades - why is it me, not you!
At the iron gates of hades - I`m burning for you!
At the iron gates of hades - why is it me, not you!
Darkness all around me, my spirit is finally free and doomed eternally.
My soul is ready to enter the iron gates of hell - and I can hear the bell.
My black soul...
At the iron gates...
The found me dead in my room, nearby a flickering candle.
Can`t you here my sirene tune from inside this goddamned candle?
My black soul...
At the iron gates...
5. The Tower
The wild, black sea and fog around, the scream of feebles!
Majestic sight - the walls of might, home of all evil!
Locked up beyond my wildest dreams -
they threw away the keys for good.
But in your dreams I spread my wings
and walk among them as the Hood.
I watch you breathing in the dark
and sometimes touch you in your sleep.
I am the blackness `round the spark,
I am the butcher, you`re the sheep.
Welcome home, please step in - the Tower!
Welcome home, please step in - the Tower!
Welcome home, please step in - the Tower!
Welcome home, please step in - the Tower!
The wild, black sea and fog around, the scream of feebles!
Majestic sight - the walls of might, home of all evil!
Please close the heavy iron gate,
and follow me downstairs this way.
You`ll see this dream was worth the wait,
here is the rack on which you lay.
Now watch the iron start to glow
and all the hooks enter your flesh.
Your will to live is running low
with every bone that I will crash!
Welcome...
6. Shadows of the Ring
I feel it now - that death is near,
my sweat`s the sign of naked fear.
I hold my breath - I see them now!
Want to escape, but don`t know how?
The sound of hooves is what I hear -
there is no doubt, that they are here!
They`ve come for me, their ancient king.
They want revenge! They want my ring!
Redemption came too late!
The stars have sealed my fate, my fate,
my fate - the stars have sealed my fate!
They have come to crucify the king -
shadows of the ring!
Death is travelling - shadows of the ring!
They have come to take my throne and
crucify their king - shadows of the ring!
Death is travelling - shadows of the ring!
Warriors storming in, torch in hand,
eyes look grim. My hand grips tight,
the evil ring. My sword held high,
I won`t give in. The smell of death
is in the air, I know I`ll die, but I don`t
care. The henchman`s slaves got me
alive, and on the cross I lose my life.
Redemption...
They have come...
