2. Scotland United
Malcom King
Scots follow you
Into battle
We will go

To the river Forth

Defeated Ecgfrith

Subdued the picts

Cut to pieces
In blood you'll drown
Fires in the sky we saw for 30 days they shone
Fate is on our side forever win the scottish throne
United, united we stand

Into battle

Fires in the sky we saw for 30 days they shone
Fate is on our side forever win the scottish throne

3. The Dark Of The Sun
Get your steel brothers
We must fight
Hakon tries to steal
Scotish right
Norwegian soldiers on our land
Steal our Islands
We must defend
Their number's too great we can't win
God in heaven
Send a sign
Kneel and pray - the sun turns black
God with us - we must attack
In the dark of the sun
In the dark of the sun
In the dark of the sun
In the dark of the sun
Alex king you did
win the day
You bet Hakon and
Proud Norway
We swept them off the battlefield
In their blood they lie
Death is dealed
Their king died on foreign land
United we were strong
we did stand
Kneel and pray - the sun turns black
God with us - we must attack
In the dark of the sun
In the dark of the sun
In the dark of the sun
In the dark of the sun
Fight!
In the dark of the sun
The enemy's defeated run
In the dark of the sun
The battle has been won
4. The Reaper
Welcome to the evil's nightmare
See the demons dancing round
Waiting for the reaper's rising
Looking out for Satan's crowd
The grave is open, a digger's smile
Please welcome the dead
Look behind you, he stands behind you
The Reaper shall return
Look beside you, he walks beside you
The Reaper has returned
Tonight the Reaper's party is open
Get entrance, get the trance
Forget about the words of warning
Forget about the smell of death
The grave is open, a digger's smile
Please welcome the dead
Look behind you, he stands behind you
The Reaper shall return
Look beside you, he walks beside you
The Reaper has returned
The raft of death now leaves the landing
Waters wipe out space and time
Black man gives a skinless smile
Cold greetings reach your mind
Look behind you, he stands behind you
The Reaper shall return
Look beside you, he walks beside you
The Reaper has returned
5. The Round Table (Forever)
Table of the finest wood
Mankind has ever seen
Without head and without foot
A sign of eternity
All knights are equal here
And so is even the King
Our swords point to its center
Giving us the power to win
TOGETHER WE STAND
STEEL IN OUR HANDS
FIGHTING FOREVER
FOREVER WE STAND
FOREVER WE FIGHT
SIDE BY SIDE
FOREVER WE STAND
FOREVER WE STAND
Give us the wisdom - Almighty Lord
To make out wrong from right
Give us the will to choose the Right
And the readiness to sacrifice
We become free in serving each other
We're Camelots pounding heart
Round table of true brothers
Until death do us part
TOGETHER WE STAND
STEEL IN OUR HANDS
FIGHTING FOREVER
FOREVER WE STAND
FOREVER WE FIGHT
SIDE BY SIDE
FOREVER WE STAND
FOREVER WE STAND

7. Circle Of Witches
The foul smell of evil hangs over the moores
Where in a lonely hut three witches dwell
Repelling creatures, ageless, feared and fitted
With powers from the depths of Hell
Once a noble man, a baron brother of the king himself
Visited the wtiches on a dark, dark night
He asked assist to gain the throne
He sold his soul to win a fight
The days getting short, and the nights getting colder
Winter has come, the sun is too weak
The forces of night are now growing stronger
Searching for souls of men blind with greed
Three witches stand in a circle of evil
Tongues speaking words old and unknown
Call for a demon to serve in their dark spell
Fulfill what they owe to get what men own
I'll be king, I want the power, I will change my fate
Magic's on my side forever, so the witches say
Time is right to gain the throne, I'll take my brother down
I'll be king to rule the land, yes I'll take the crown
I've lost my soul
I've lost control
To the circle of witches
My life is black
There's no way back
From the circle of witches
Circle of witches
Circle of witches
Circle of witches - Never again
Lie in wait, prepared to fight, soon the king must come
Allied with the darkest powers, murder will be done
Loyal soldiers stand for battle, blinded are their eyes
Witchcraft takes away their sight, as we take their lives
I've lost my soul
I've lost control
To the circle of witches
My life is black
There's no way back
From the circle of witches
Circle of witches
Circle of witches
Circle of witches - Never again
I look at myself, a mirror of darkness
My mind is drowned, a dark flood of hate
I owe too much to the powers of evil
I know I'm damned, sealed is my fate
For the gloom of gold and glory, I have sold my soul
Blackened are the sunny days, the dark side gains control
Hell awaits as nightmares haunt me, demons in my head
Satan waits with patient joy, he'll greet me when I'm dead
I've lost my soul
I've lost control
To the circle of witches
My life is black
There's no way back
From the circle of witches
Circle of witches
Circle of witches
Circle of witches - Never again
8. The Ballad Of Mary (Queen Of Scots)
My fingers touch the solid stones
Strong and cold, they keep me from home
Imprisoned like a wingless dove
Far away from the land I love
Lonely days count lonely years
I have cried a thousand tears
All that I tried to gain
Is lost the effort was in vain
At Carberry hill I lost my crown
My husband fled my luck went down
In England's hands I fell
18 years a living hell
The Scotish crown belongs to me
Yet I'm bound I can not flee
With iron claws England holds tight
All is lost no chance to fight
Silence - Silence Everywhere
Cold walls are my reward
Loneliness engulfs my soul
I've been true I gave my heart
Stained tears I cried
I long to be free again
To walk in peace again
Scotland cries her queen is lost
Agony's her friend again
9. Lionheart
Fiery red curls cover his shoulder
He's the ruler, no one is bolder
His steel - blue eyes won't show no fear
Reflecting the suffering of war so clear
A knight, a leader, wearing England's crown
Richard the Lionheart wants to put the Moslems down
He sets the sail, heading Outremer
Defending the name he bears
A man like a Lion
With a generous heart
For his sake thousands die
Lionheart - England's Pride
LIONHEART
ALMIGHTY KING
FREEDOM YOU'LL BRING
LIONHEART
SPREAD YOUR WINGS
KING OF THE KINGS
King Philipp at his side and many knights
Overcome the Islam, souls painted white
He executes all prisoners, without regret
Corpses cover the ground as the sun sets
A man like a Lion
With a generous heart
For his sake thousands die
Lionheart - England's Pride
LIONHEART
ALMIGHTY KING
FREEDOM YOU'LL BRING
LIONHEART
SPREAD YOUR WINGS
KING OF THE KINGS
Akkon has fallen into Richard's hands
Still war on his mind, moving to France
In one fatal moment came the end of his quest
Breathing his last with an arrow in his chest
A man like a Lion
With a generous heart
For his sake thousands die
Lionheart - England's Pride
LIONHEART
ALMIGHTY KING
FREEDOM YOU'LL BRING
LIONHEART
SPREAD YOUR WINGS
KING OF THE KINGS
10. Morgane Le Fay
My ruby eyes can see
All secrets and stories never told
With shadows I dance
Sombre castle, Soul aglow
I have the power
I have the might
Morgane le Fay
When I felt my father death
The Dragon put my mother in disgrace
Down by the fireplace
Sowed seed of my evil ways
Don't mess with me
Do not cross my way
Or you may play a part
In my malicious game
I AM THE DEVIL IN DISGUISE
I BRING THE EVIL TO YOUR LIFE
LISTEN, LISTEN - LISTEN WHAT I SAY
MY NAME IS MORGANE LE FAY
I spoil all happiness
I reveal unvarnished truth
Call me the Black Nun
I am invincible, I never lose
Don't mess with me
Do not cross my way
Or you may play a part
In my malicious game
I AM THE DEVIL IN DISGUISE
I BRING THE EVIL TO YOUR LIFE
LISTEN, LISTEN - LISTEN WHAT I SAY
MY NAME IS MORGANE LE FAY
11. Knights Of The Cross
It is the end, of the eleventh century
The Christians rule
Europian countries
The Pope is the head of church
Representing God on earth
His words are the law
His mind is set on war
In the name of God they kill
In the name of God they rape
Blood leads to glory - for God's sake
KNIGHTS, KNIGHTS OF THE CROSS
MURDER, MURDER
FIGHT TO DEFEND JERUSALEM
FROM THE UNHOLY DEVILS
Pope and priests cry out for holy war
God and Jesus they think to be fighting for
The Islam conquered Byzanz
Slaughter Christians everywhere
Knights of the Cross invade the East
Whrer the Islam dwells
In the name of God they kill
In the name of God they rape
Blood leads to glory - for God's sake
KNIGHTS, KNIGHTS OF THE CROSS
MURDER, MURDER
FIGHT TO DEFEND JERUSALEM
FROM THE UNHOLY DEVILS
Knights in the name of
God, stab women and men
Burning, raping, eating human flesh
Satanic bloodlust in their eyes
The first crusade is won
The knights realize too late
Their ankles are covered with Christian blood
In the name of God they kill
In the name of God they rape
Blood leads to glory - for God's sake
KNIGHTS, KNIGHTS OF THE CROSS
MURDER, MURDER
FIGHT TO DEFEND JERUSALEM
FROM THE UNHOLY DEVILS
12. Rebellion (The Clans Are Marching)
The clan's are marching `gainst the law
Bagpipers play the tunes of war
Death or glory i will find
Rebellion on my mind
Rumours know that rebellion will break out
Bonnie Prince Charles is in the highlands to claim his crown no doubt
He raised his Standart at Glenfinnen calling to our pride
The Jacobites are gathering I'll be at their side
Armed and ready stand
My rights I must defend
Steel is in my hand
The clan's are marching `gainst the law
Bagpipers play the tunes of war
Death or glory i will find
Rebellion on my mind
The town of Edinburgh fell soon in our hands
Defeated the English at the Battle of Prestopans
Armed and ready stand
My rights I must defend
Steel is in my hand
The clan's are marching `gainst the law
Bagpipers play the tunes of war
Death or glory i will find
Rebellion on my mind
13. Heavy Metal Breakdown
Metal invasion that's all what we need
Metal dominion that's all what we want
We come to give you rules and principles
what you have to do
We come to shake your hands and legs
as fast as we can do
Heavy Metal Breakdown x 4
Women and children want to hear the noise
Women and children want to feel the beat
Bang your heads as fast as you can
until you're breaking down
The night is long, the show is right
bang until you die
Heavy Metal Breakdown
shake your legs and bang your heads
Heavy Metal Breakdown
