These outstanding lyrics send shivers up my spine whilst reading & listening at the same time, utterly brilliant...
Mine is the card of suffering
Mine is the card of misery
All of this was foretold
Before these depictions ever hung in Thoth's gallery
I have many names for many heroes
As I see pass another century, this means nothing to me
I Caladcholy, Excalibur, Socht's Sword, Glorm Glas,
Beater and Biter
I Mournblade, Stormbringer, Cruadin
I am the sword with which Siegfried slew the dragon
Those strong enough to brandish me will only know in their lives misery
I drink deep of souls while all those around them die,
This foretold before man could shape steel into a triumph of will
Or the pyramids caressed the sky
I Caladcholy, Excalibur, Socht's Sword, Glorm Glas,
Beater and Biter
I Mournblade, Stormbringer, Cruadin
I am the sword with which Siegfried slew the dragon
I may lie Aeons in the bottom of a lake or dwell in a
netherworld cave in Ameeron
I Caladcholy, Excalibur, I will drink your soul from the depleted chalice that is nothing more than the shell of a man where once stood a mythical champion.
And my fav lyric/line EVER:
"Rock 'n roll...far too slow
So the adrenaline just doesn't flow
Where is the power, where is the glory?
Heavy Metal is my story"
Sten & Korgüll: I have no idea where these lyrics are from, but they are awesome! If no1 can solve these riddles within the next days, give us the answer I need to check those out
Here is another favorite of mine, the band itself is not outstanding, but this one track definitley is:
"Look in the glass at the universal ice
Through it I pass at the speed of light
I walk the decades ten at a step or make the moment freeze in my grip
I breathe the centuries
I bend your destinies
I bind reality
I am galactic energy
I sing the song of Saturn's rings
I tightwalk on cosmic strings
I wrote the music Venus sings
I handed Mercury his wings
I am the reason seasons turn and why the lakes in hell still burn
I am forever...
I am the minute man
I build the empires
I appoint the lords
I set the standards
I swing the swords
I paint the shadows behind the doors
I chose the heroes
I pay the whores
I bare within my mind treasures you'll never find
I govern space and time
I watch the world through ancient eyes I sing the song of Saturn's rings
I tightwalk on cosmic strings
I wrote the music venus signs
I handed Mercury his wings
And I'm the reason seasons turn and why the lakes in hell still burns
I am forever...
I am the minute man"
"A crystal river is flowing
and falling below
Fact or fiction
I've heard the tale
of death lady's cove
Many men come here
to seek the enchantress divine
lured by her power to heal saddened,
heartbroken minds
She stands behind the falls
that crush the bodies onto jagged lime
Blood mixed with water a crimson stream
now washes through mine
I can hear her song, a haunted melody
I can now see her face, unequaled beauty
Legend does say
a fearless heart
will cross the falls unharmed
But who doth have
a fearless heart that's also broken
A warrior am I who's fought
not wars of swords and armor
The thirst of loneliness
I've tried to quench for all my life
Moving closer I gaze
onto healing emerald eyes
Song of solace breathes
through the lips of soothing red wine
Long flowing hair blows
through whispers of wind from my dreams
Two arms that will embrace and hands
that will caress my longing face
Her voice now calls me clear
my fear's abandoned
Lustful were other men
whose souls have fallen
Can't see the spray
that whips my face
and robs the air I breathe
Thunder falls,
such power that it dwarfs my body
Yet I continue on
even if it means that I will drown
to know that I have felt
the hope she gives forever moving
Moving on and on
To what ending? I still hear her song
Under or through the waterfall
I now shall go
Behind me water falls
my body is left behind
My soul now in her arms
enchanted I'll remain
on, on forever on...forever enchanted"
Burning the witches they all stop and scream
Dying a death in a dark winded dream
Ripping your flesh from your now weakened bones
Filled with terror as you scream and moan
Maybe not that obscure at all, but this is genious:
"Paint in Subways
Paint in busses
With Your Edding big black pentagrams
Black metal graffitis are thrown against the wall
Crucifixes are inversed
Pictures are signed by the triple six
Black metal art is shocking law´n order man
Rockers of the underground
Black and heavy is our sound

RUNNING WILD madness! A super anthem of heavy metal! HAIL!
Good against Evil, Evil sure to win
"It really didn't matter if they liked it or not, i was going to give it to them straight down their throats" -John Stewart
Cupboard's bare, I'm so hungry
Life ain't fair, gimme some money

And one of all time thrash favorites
You wanna be cool, you wanna be tough
You wanna be respected, be a man
So you haved off your face, cut off your hair
then they gave you a gun and a badge
now you're the law, you do what you want
and "we the people" do what you say
'Cause you are the man with the gun in your hand
God help us if we get in your way
And this one is from one of my favorites "heavy metal is the law" anthems:
you told me you wouldn't shave your head
and listen to trendy shit instead
you told me that you would wear spikes
and that you'd never buy a pair of Nikes
you told me you would me by friend
and that you'd like to see a metalband
you told me you wouldn't wear a suit
yes for metal you were always in the mood
for we are metal eternally
bonded by blood we will be
together we stand side by side
we wear our studs & spikes with pride
you stopped banging your metalhead now
and you are dating a stupid fat cow
she made you cut off your hair
this is something I can't bear
so it's clear that I'll loose a friend
this is where our friendship ends
now I have to fight alone
while you watch your tv at home
can you walk out just like that?
is friendship that easy to forget?
fo rm, this was always real
it's in my heart, it's what I feel
get out of my sight and make it fast
cause this friendship will not last
if that's the way you will betray
there's nothing more I have to say
