Some say that the lights bring signs of war omens and more Fires in the North Listen to the lore, lit by the ones who show the way to the heavens Some say that the lights connect the worlds of Living and dead bringing them together Holes deep in the sky that bridge the gap into the afterlife Souls of the unborn children adorned Spirits that mourn Some say that the lights when called to close decapitate their summoner Listen of the tales through the generations * The many places and the traces Of the power they possess down through the ages when you speak the name of Aurora Borealis, The red dawn, ** Burning spears, arsaniit, Blazing Bridge Northern lights, Foxfire, Child taker Sky dancer, Heavens pass, Light dragon The glare will encompass you as you cast your gaze into Curtains of light through the blackest night Brightly , Shining Reflections from the sun off armor off What we can see of the valkyrie Choosing the ones for Valhalla and for odin Some say that the lights are once great armies And the warriors of the north who will forever Be doing battle and clashing proudly until all eternity Souls of the unborn children adorned Spirits that mourn Some say that the lights when called to close decapitate their summoner

Circus Maximus must go down first While I feel a bliss as flames scorch the earth From my own hands I cast the blaze and make the Christians take the blame Atop my throne I bid you all farewell Now prepare yourselves for ten days of hell * Watch me feed the fire, for my desire Watch me feed the fire, Blazing higher ** I justify the lives, my legacy will survive Advocate the lies, and watch religion die They say, With joy I, They say, I played as it burned With flame, With flame I, With flame, I burned it to the ground For greed, For greed I, For greed, I blame the ones of faith They say, With joy I, They say, I played as it burned My own palace must go down next So that a golden one can resurrect A city of magnificence Will be built the blood the cost REPEAT * REPEAT ** I control the death like a god No, no mercy Felt, the ungod Feel the power held, A demigod Look up to me, the Pa god REPEAT ** Help me feed the fire, For my desire Help me feed the fire, Blazing higher The destruction is now complete Looking down at the Misery Would I do it all again? Just pass my Bow and listen in

God Wills It 03:59
Rise, Knights Cut down all before us, Leave no one alive Unto the holy city we all shall ride The vow we have spoken, retake the sacred land Our sins will be forgiven by gods command Christ, Our lord and savior * Christ, For him we kill Christ, Lead us to him In the name of Christ, Denounce the Muslim Christ, Its him we kill Christ, Make a covenant and the blood will spill God wills it, God wills it We don’t need a crown of gold upon the head We adopt the crown made from thorns imbedded through the skin thus we will fulfill The changing of the guard let the siege impel The trebuchet breaches holes throughout the wall The Christian army is in before nightfall repeat * The funeral pyres resemble pyramids made from countless dead as their marching Ankle deep in blood beheading all the ones on the path that leads to the temple of Solomon A war of the cross, many there will be A war of the cross never ending

The Red Flag 04:47
Mired craft is now in sight With hunted ones The treasure that it yields Will be ours by the first streaks of dawn The Flag in which we fly It shows no threat Allies on the sea clandestine, deception is kept The battle soon to be Windswept oceans guide the way Riches and ancient gold await Close the division once again The distance between us and them Prepare the cannons , ready the men Leave no survivors , my last command Up, raise the red flag * The signal for a massacre Now, split the silence Explosion of the blast is heard from artillery Fires raging on all decks From the torch Fitful glow of burning ships and singeing flesh fill the gusting air Closer drop the planks Prepare to board Ransack that you will Bloodthirsty, No mercy they kill Let the battle rage Windswept oceans guide the way Riches and ancient gold await Savage we take what is ours Bodies will wash to the shore Repeat * Asphyxiation from the waves, Welcome to your wet grave Windswept oceans guide the way Riches and ancient gold await No man shall be left alive Allow none to survive This flag means malice, this flag brings pain This flag means horror it will remain A flag of loathing, a flag of hate Meet your Kreator it seals your fate Up, raise the red flag The signal for a massacre Now, another in sight Cast up the sail to conquer another enemy

Dusk brings a last breath The last beat from a dying Heart of a once great Pharaoh destined for the Journey, A last quest A last hope to pass through Dark lands, an underworld In the search for immortality Hathor Guides This solar ride That will lead us through a river in the sky 12 hours it shall be to reach the other side The twelve gates now await Look to the book of spells To lead you through this hell With the book of gates the other side awaits Ra lead me on this voyage and take my hand I watch the river run dry and turn to sand Darkness surrounds us now here no wind blows We pass into the realm where only the dead shall go Great serpents guard the gates here at every turn One battle just one loss here the soul will not return This victory is our now the gate is passed Six hours quickly fade now the time will not last The cave of the last task A last test of sokar Prevail we will The twisted path becomes clear Penitence will show Regret for the wrongs A weighing of the heart Reveals the Soul will not be torn apart Robed in White The sun will rise and I will be reborn

The slaughter has released the sacrificial offering to Appease the appetite of the one that will bring the light This Dedication of Tenochtitlan will Be a gift up to the gods, a gift of twenty two thousand hearts Bring up victim one, tie him down here, this day has just begun Sharpen up the blade, with scriptures near, the priest will now convey a prayer up to his god and ask favor upon his Clergy and his lands with a beating heart in hand Plunging the dagger deep, A body falls Another up the steps to heed the call Ten thousand carcasses, the bodies fall Our day is but half done, decimate the thrall Prepare out kettle for the many deceased Oh come all ye faithful, tonight we feast We Offer blood to the idols If not diseased the rest we eat Reserve three limbs of the captor’s victims Display the heads at the temple pyramids We offer blood to the idols our lord is pleased thus now we eat The battlefield is where these poor souls come from The altar is where they will be forgotten Another Falls, Another Falls, Another Falls, they fall Covered in blood all now are in eternal sleep Cadaverous depths now reaching twenty thousand deep Another Falls, Another Falls, Another Falls, they fall

Black Snow 04:29
Our paradise has turned to hell * The gods have forsaken us The end has come Indeed it has Lay down with death our time has passed Eruption has begun ** Swiftly the blue is lost The sky is dark Forever dark Unending night the seas shall part With floods of ore pourded down on the land Escape is gone as there grows a Tree of fire with limbs of flame Poison vapor suffocating Falling pumice from above cast down by the lord of fire vulcan vulcan Black snow falling down Buried in ashes now Black snow coming down lament those from the towns one time, two times, we will suffer and those that last stone forever more three times, the last we will suffer and those that last stone forever more Repeat * Repeat ** Dont Look into my eyes, you will see the hope that died Dont look into our eyes we cast back our demise Eruption is Complete Slowly the blue returns Sky still dark but lighter now Looming clouds unhurriedly part
