He broke the laws of the elders[00:00:43]
So they plucked out his eye[00:00:47]
Took his land and fortune[00:00:52]
Left him to die[00:00:57]
Bound on the shoreline[00:01:02]
Left for the tide[00:01:07]
Sees his life blood leaving[00:01:11]
Circling lower the vultures fly[00:01:16]
These bones may be broken[00:01:24]
But the spirit can't die[00:01:28]
And the gods see his anguish[00:01:33]
And give him a sign[00:01:38]
From the floor of the ocean[00:01:42]
The ship of the lost souls rise[00:01:46]
And they take him where no one sleeps[00:01:53]
While the undead cry[00:02:00]
Where no one sleeps while the undead cry[00:02:06]
And in the world above[00:02:16]
The elders sing[00:02:21]
On his land they live[00:02:25]
Let deaths bell ring[00:02:30]
He was met at the gate of hades[00:02:36]
By the guardian of the lost souls[00:02:39]
The keeper of the unavenged[00:02:42]
And he did say to him:[00:02:43]
Let you not pass abandon return to the world from once you came[00:02:47]
And seek payment not only for thy known anguish[00:02:55]
But vindicate the souls of the unavenged[00:03:00]
And they placed in his hands a sword made for him called vengeance[00:03:03]
Forged in brimstone and tempered by the woeful tears of the unavenged[00:03:11]
And to carry him up on his journey back to the upper world[00:03:17]
They brought forth their demon horse called black death[00:03:21]
A grim steed so fiercely might and black in colour[00:03:27]
That he could stand as one with the darkness[00:03:32]
Save from his burning eyes of crimson fire[00:03:37]
And on that night they rode up from hell[00:03:40]
The pounding of his hooves did clap like thunder[00:03:45]
Burning death destruction raping the daughters and wives[00:04:24]
In blood I take my payment in full with their lives[00:04:29]
No one can escape me on black death I ride[00:04:35]
When kissed by the sword of vengeance[00:04:40]
Your head lays there by your side[00:04:42]
I take the lives of all that I once knew[00:04:46]
The torn flesh of a slow death waits for you[00:04:51]
Burning death destruction raping the daughters and wives[00:04:57]
In blood I take my payment in full with their lives[00:05:02]
I spare not land or servants my wake is slow dead there[00:05:08]
I take their wives and daughters[00:05:13]
They stand there watching watching[00:05:16]
Hoping to get my life but when I'm through they know they must pay[00:05:19]
