LYRICS:

The Cull

Cut down, one by one
No sound remains
Don’t fear if death finds you, this day

Are you with me
Let us savor the pain
Do you hear the distant sound
Calling your name

In time, all of us are forgotten
The ones that don’t belong to the pages of history

But as my forefathers, I take to the open seas
And as long before, I follow and don’t ask more
Passed down, long before, the stories of old

This time, I will not be forgotten
I won’t be towed along with the feeble and the enemy

But as my forefathers, I take to the open seas
And as long before, I follow and don’t ask more
Passed down, long before, the stories of old
And won’t be called upon

Mortal Reminder

Blinded by hate brought by the fall
As I swear death to all
You will feel my vengeance
As I claim your mortal soul

I will punish and destroy
Those responsible for this ploy
I will seek a thousand deaths
I will bring a thousand years of war

All that I had taken away
My home is gone, and my loved ones slain
For every sleep claims a piece of me
Every waking moment, every single dream

As the masses came
Like a shadow through this land
They laid siege to all we ever had
I stood strong, I was honor bound
I stand defiant, I stand ever proud
I am the chosen
I am the guardian, the guardian

Now I seek the blood of those
Who claimed the innocent
I will hunt the enemy to the last
I will banish and rejoice
The final breath of foes
You will see what you have made
You will see what I have finally become

All that I had laid to the waste
My spirit broken and just memories remain
For every day claims a piece of me
Every waking hour claims my inner peace
My inner peace

As the masses came
Like a shadow through this land
They laid siege to all we ever had
I stood strong, I was honor bound
I stand defiant, I stand ever proud
I am the chosen
I am the guardian, the guardian

TEAR OF THE GODDESS

The unknown terror
That stood alone
Passed from the days of the early suns
Through worlds of lost belief
Laid waste and buried deep

Summoned to be set up to fall
But there’s no fear
That lives inside this soul

Inside this world
There is no way back to forgiving us
Undone, deliverer
The sinful and the saviors of the innocent

And so
Keepers of old
Keep us from cold
Let us fight once more
Till our honor is restored

The unknown terror
That lives below
Breathes the flames from the dying suns
And lives to wake the dying ones
The dying ones

The dying ones
(The dying ones)
(The dying ones)

Inside this world
There is no way back to forgiving us
Undone, deliverer
The sinful and the saviors of the innocent

And so
Keepers of old
Keep us from cold
Let us fight once more
Till our honor is restored

Infinity Edge

Beyond the lands of dreams
I hear the call of riches
Word of waters blessed unnatural
Granting power of gods to men

Under the distant sun is my calling
I walk the lands
That death cannot conquer
And through the unforgiving worlds
The battle lays in wait
Seeking the way
That leads me to the power of the edge
The edge

I’m living and dying a thousand lives
And it’s taken its toll on me this time
The edge cares not so why should I
Because I breathe the air of immortals
And I’ll be the true invincible
The edge is my destiny

So far from home I’m reeling
I’ve seen the fall of friends
The end of the road approaching
I will have my victory

I will not cease to be
You will not ever stop me
I won’t give up the dream
You cannot ever stop me

Seeking the way
That leads me to the power of the edge

I’m living and dying a thousand lives
And it’s taken its toll on me this time
The edge cares not so why should I
Because I breathe the air of immortals
And I’ll be the true invincible
The edge is my destiny

I’m living and dying a thousand lives
And it’s taken its toll on me this time
The edge cares not so why should I
Because I breathe the air of immortals
And I’ll be the true invincible
The edge is my destiny

My destiny
My destiny
My destiny
My destiny

Dead Man’s Plate

Is there reason, in this life
We call our own
So many misguided visions
And trusting deceit
And in our shallow pursuit of truth
We lost ourselves

May the storms gather
May the cinders roam
Those that will die will still remember

You drank deep and you paid the price
(What did you think you would find)
Answer the dark whisper
And you will tear this world apart
Our world apart

When the walls came down
We we’re left abandoned here
There’s no soul inside us
We’re just all flesh and bone
To wander the dead lands forever

Will we ever get the chance

Will we ever get the chance
To show them
So many forgotten and we live on
In the city that once was timeless

You drank deep and you paid the price
(What did you think you would find)
Answer the dark whisper
And you will tear this world apart
Our world apart

You will tear this world apart

The Hex Core MK-2

Is that all you’ve got to say
Cause this is not another game
Not one that you wanna play
Step, by step, by step
Death march to your grave

Is that all you’ve got to say
Cause this is not another game
Not one that you wanna play
Step, by step, by step
Death march to your grave

There’s no one left you can blame
A lonely war dance of pain
Step, by step, by step
Death march to your grave

Is that all you’ve got to say
Is that all you’ve got to say

Step, by step, by step
Death march to your grave

The Bloodthirster

Cast down the weak
Those who deceived us
Those who would let us burn
Liars and cheats
Brittle and weak
Another day will come

Crawling on your knees right to the end
I let you pretend you had your last days
Calling for me to disappear
I cannot be so easily sent forth

As you descended on them
You carry their memories of endless pain
As remnants to their end
One after one
You sever them, sever them
Sever

Sever, sever your demons deep within
A shadow that’s been long instilled

Cast down the weak
Those who deceived us
Those who would let us burn
Liars and cheats
Brittle and weak
Another day will come

Torment so easily dispensed
You tried to break our will but you failed
Calling the serpentine flame
Until we were just dust and remains

As you descended on them
You carry their memories of endless pain
As remnants to their end
One after one
You sever them, sever them
Sever

Cast down the weak
Those who deceived us
Those who would let us burn
Liars and cheats
Brittle and weak
Another day will come

Cast down the weak
Those who would flee us
Those who would let us burn
Liars and cheats
Feeble and weak
I see them
Another day will
Another day will
Another day will come

Frozen Heart

Up here on the roof of the world
Up here on the roof of the world

Long have we sought to ascend this place
A life of servitude to omens
The elders have promised us long before
With evil banished to the wastelands
Hands of the chosen will extend to us

Upon the roof of this world
Distant voices calling for the final fight
We will answer with victory

Long have we fought for these lands
In the shadows and the stories of the promised light
Now to take our place beyond

Up here on the roof of the world
Up here on the roof of the world
Where we are sworn to guard no more
Up here on the roof of the world

Long have we fought to protect this place
These haunted dreams never ending
Clinching to the promises of life reborn

Upon the roof of this world
Distant voices calling for the final fight
We will answer with victory

Long have we fought for these lands
In the shadows and the stories of the promised light
Now to take our place beyond

Here on the roof of the world
In the cradle of the storms
Where vengeful winds cut to the bone
And there’s no turning back

(Here on the roof of the world)
(Here on the roof of the world)
(Here on the roof of the world)

Up here on the roof of the world
Up here on the roof of the world
Where we are sworn to guard no more
Up here on the roof of the world

Rapid Firecannon

A forgotten place inside the lonely tower
Tear it down with a metal roar
The war eternal, I assail the unassailable
A second release unhaunted by my past

Beneath the marshlands
Calling forth the night
Buried deep a weapon forged in fire
Fathers and sons their kin laid to waste
(An evil is renewed)

Light up
The night with flames and cinder
For I am renewed
(Down in flames)
(Feel the kick and watch them burn)

Light up
Caught in the crossfire Overwhelming firepower
(Now return to hell)
(In a firestorm)

Out with the old
In with the new world order
Die or obey the choice is yours
Undetected, into the spider’s web
Taking it apart slowly piece by piece

Find a shadow to hide me, and I wait
Tricksters and spellweavers beware
With this flame I culled the weak
Made my nation strong again
Well now they’re all dead and gone
Dead and gone

With this blade
I call the weak
Make my nation strong again

Beneath the marshlands
Calling forth the night
Buried deep a weapon forged in fire
Fathers and sons, their kin laid to waste
(An evil is renewed)

Light up
The night with flames and cinder
For I am renewed
(Down in flames)
(Feel the kick and watch them burn)

Light up
Caught in the crossfire
Overwhelming firepower
(Now return to hell)
(In a firestorm)
