ABSU - THE COMING OF WAR lyrics

Evil

Summoned to war

Eternal conquest for power

Gathering armies of death

To fight and kill at will

Sinister weapons of war

Piercing metal and man

Warriors

Mounted on steeds

Ride out into the mist

Awaiting

The signal to attack

Swords clash and men fall to their death

Aimless pawn

Only to die by my hand

Battle cry

Blood stains upon his chest

Endless

Eternal Pain

Thousands die for a king

Wretched

Weary souls

Raging battle never ends

Hatred

Inflicting death

Destroying the weak at heart

Eternity

Becomes less

War has drawn to an end

Overthrown

The emperor falls in defeat

Great halls

Crack and decay with neglect

Dethroned

He cries out in vengeance

Impaler

Mark is words of death

Shadows

Crusades of the past

Triumph through the fog

Sunsets drip into dusk

Flows like blood on my blade

Massacre the feckless breed

Dismiss all empty thrones

Riding, beyond the clouds, damnation ends in despair

Awaiting

The signal to attack

Swords clash and men fall to their death

Aimless pawn

Only to die by my hand

Battle cry

Blood stains upon his chest
