1. Armed To The Teeth
Darkness is fading
The mystic dawn is near
Our horde is ready
The final war is here
Armed to the teeth
Battleaxes and swords
Crossbows and spears
Armed to the teeth
Nothing has changed for a thousand years
But now the final moment is hear
Within the deepest holes of the abyss
New swords are made for our warrior host
Morning has broken
Blood will be spilled
Fire and destruction
It will be the end
We lighten our tourches
And turn towards heaven
We pray for a sign
A sign for war
2. Walking Through Fire
All dressed up for battle we are
Holding our swords up high
On my shield the sign of Thor
For power and protection in war
I raise my skull to the skies
A sign on the horizon is given
My roots are near
The power fills my heart and soul
I have walked through fire
I have walked through ice
To reach this place
Where proud pagan men
Have stood long before me
It's a wonderful view
I'm summoning you
One eyed old man
With wisdom and strength
With powers of life and death
I'm summoning you
Proud god of all
3. Beast Of The North
The beast of the North
Roars of thunder
The beast of the North
Back from the depths
He is here to conquer
He is here to reign
He is here to slay
He is here to stay
The beast of the North
Is coming to take you
The beast of the north
Is coming to rape you
A more brave warrior
Has never been seen
Led by anger and hate
He fights without fear
Until the last man
Falls to the ground
4. Fate Of The Gods
Jormundgand lashes the ocean
The sun is darkened
Total devastation
The fires roar
And the stars falls from heaven
Yggdrasil tremble
And there is chaos
The master of the underworld
Together with the chaos forces
Attacks the gods world
Riding over Bifrost
The bridge to Asgard
Heimdall blows the Gjallarhorn
The final battle
Is all over us
The forces meets to fight
The sun has died
So has the stars
The heaven bursts
The earth is engulfed
The fate of the gods
5. The Battleroar
A thousand shining spears
Beatings of the wardrums
Our horde is gathered
Ready for the battle
On the other side
Not far away
The battletroops
Of our enemies
It is freezing cold
The dawn is near
The magic red sun
Is beginning to rise
It is time for the battle
It is time for the war
We bend our bows
Let's hear the battleroar
The first sign goes
The arrows are on their way
Raising our shields
It's raining arrows
Over our heads
The battle is on
I love the war
We raise our swords
Listen to the great sound
The battleroar
I have my faith
I have my sword
Meeting in the middle
The clash of our hordes
Screams of pain across the field
Man to man, steel to steel
Bleeding warriors all over the field
Warm blood covering the snow
The war is here, I love the roar
6. ...To Hangatyr
Hung in a tree far above
Bleeding for a heathen spear
Sacrificed to Hangatyr
The wolfs howl, the ravens flee
Screams of anguish
Writhe in despair and fear
Their hopes of an arrival
To the land beyond the ocean
A life on the knees
You're better off dead
Your life is fading
Take your last breath
Call upon the gods
Summon the king of the hanged
A last wish to enter the mighty halls
Of all the fallen heroes
7. Towards The Sinister Realms
Riding across the darkened sky
With my ravens flying above
Seeing things not known to mankind
I'm on my way to the reich of death
On my left I see a world
Here rules the fire and the light
On my right is another world
Here rules the darkness and the ice
In the nine worlds of sorrow
In the nine worlds of death
Rules the mighty mistress of Hel
Queen of melancholy
8. Awaiting Your Valkyries Arrival
I'm finally here
At the edge of my life
Sacrificing myself to you
My body is frostbitten and wounded
Bleeding for the christian sword
I lay down my sword
And raise my knife
Summoning you
Take me to the place
Where death is just over night
Where christians never shall rule
My earthlife is over
But I'll live on
In thy mighty halls
A warmth is filling me
From inside
A fire in my heart
Bloodsmell fills the air
Warm blood on my hands
A fall on my knees
Never to rise again
In this feeble earthlife
I'm waiting for
Your valkyries arrival
9. Swedish Steel (The Metalist)*
Chaos ruled once in time
No life could be found in this world
Set unnamed
No light, no darkness exist
Only a chronology hid and left in time
From this nothingness stars shined
Shined from a heaven on an obscured world
Sunrise and dusk brought forth life
From a crack in the ground
The first man arose, immortal
Time went by and the races grew strong
So strong that even the weak fell to oblivion
Might, intelligence, knowledge and ease
In ancient tales these words shaped his name
Mike is the name the races forgot
And with his wrath he?ll show immense power
So one day he went to where he was born
To prepare this worlds people for their day of doom
Fight with your honour, fight with the swedish steel
They who will crush you, crush them with swedish steel
The heart of your glory shines from the swedish steel
The victory has a banner which spells swedish steel
With five men in follow in leather they all dress
His conquest went to all corners of this earth
No one should elude their music of doom
A music for peoples true hymns disbelief
Mike the Metalist, his accompany him called
And with these he has cleaned the oblivious minds
Their music they all play on top level tenis the music
That once brought Mike his own life
In the castle of stone they all sit
In a circle around a sparkling fire
With beer streaming in their throats
With music of Metal
Their conquest of doom they remember
The tales are some told in mourn, some in delight
When the stories flow from mouth to mouth
At the end of all tales the Metalist stood up
To fill this castle with his wisdom
[Repeat chorus]
"Some of the races stood up for the storm
Proud of the sound when the metal horde tolled
Sad is the fact that most of the battle is an ocean of
Unfaithful desciples,
All men ain't made for Metal
But all Metal is made for men"
