Knight of the swords, you of the great old Gods
A new age has just begun
Forged in the fire of hate, vengeance and betrayal
The race of man has come to rule

Queen of the swords, you of the great old Gods
Darkest lady of the deepest realm
You will know fear, sharper than a spear and you'll
be banished from these planes
By the hand of the prince in the scarlet robe

[CHORUS]
He's sworm to destroy all Gods
by the power of the cosmic balance
He's chosen to save this world
save the race who betrayed his own
A quest in a time unknown
to bring peace forevermore
Survivor with a noble role
The prince in the scarlet robe

King of the swords, you of the great old Gods
Summon now your dukes of hell
Faceless lord of chaos, your golden sword will not
save you and you will fall to your destiny
By the eye of the prince in the scarlet robe

[CHORUS]

Now that Gods are no more
Law is ruling the fifteen planes
No more cities in the sky, no more oceans of light
Find a new dimension where new Gods can be
created and destroyed again by the eye, by the hand
of the prince in the scarlet robe


6. Icarus Ascending

It starts deep within, just a feeling inside
A hope in my heart I can no longer deny
to break away, break away, break away, out of here

I'm a fool and a dreamer, with no place to run
A man who's been hoping to touch the sun and
to set himself free, free to reach for the eternal sky

Now I feel the urge to follow my dream, forever free
to spread my wings and fly high into the sky

I feared I would fall and fall down to the ground
but my will to ride free through the oceans of clouds
is stronger now, stronger now,
it's stronger than ever before

I'll be a symbol of warning, of ambition to rise
To fly beyond the light which is blinding my eyes
Now on a strange wings I fly
I soar on the wonderful wings of a dream

Never again to be bound by chains within cold walls
My decission is made and the time is now
A legend is born as the eyes of the world see

[CHORUS]
Icarus ascending, Icarus ascending
Icarus ascending into the sky
Icarus ascending, Icarus ascending
Icarus ascending into the sky
High into the sky

[BRIDGE]
No one will ever stand in my way
No one will ever force me to stay
And I'll fly away, fly away, fly far away from here

I take a deep breath and I close my eyes
My legend is born as the eyes of the world see

[CHORUS]

Icarus ascending into the sky
I have no place to live, I must transcend
to the other side

My wings may be burned by the rays of the sun
Though my body is falling my spirit is rising high
High beyond the astral sky

Icarus is free


7. The Song Of The Swords

Beyond the magical Shade Gate, they arrive
Elric, the Pale King, Yyrkon the Tyrant, to fight
Ther in a chamber, hanging in midair, two swords
Dreadful and fine, forged in a time no man can recall

[BRIDGE 1]
They finally find the swords
Stormbringer and Mournblade
They are fighting face to face
As the blades come alive

[CHORUS]
The black swords are singing their song of fighting
The black swords are singing for joy of blood letting
The black swords are singing for they're back to battling
The black swords are singing
They are singing out loud the song of the swords

Lifting the blades of chaos, the swordmen attack
Just like two puppets, by alien hate
they are possessed
Hearts are now pounding, metal is clashing, as one
Brothers of steel are singing their will to kill

[BRIDGE 2]
They finally find the swords
Stormbringer and Mournblade
They are fighting the final duel
and their souls are the prize

[CHORUS]

Listen to the song of the sword

[BRIDGE 2]

[FINAL CHORUS]
The black swords are singing their song of fighting
The black swords are singing for joy of blood letting
The black swords are singing for they're back to battling
The black swords are singing
for souls they are craving
