BATTLERAGE LYRICS

1. Mortuus Advocare

[Instrumental]

2. By Steel I Reign Supreme

Voices like thunder are rising
The blow of the hammer resounds
The fools who deny this my warning
Will fall dead and cold to the ground

Chosen the wielder of steel
The wargods of old by my side
My armies are in for the kill
Onwards to glory we'll ride

Born to conquer, not to serve
Raised by wolves, on mankind I've fed
Not for heaven, not for hell
Into the glory of battle again

By steel
I take your lives
By steel
I spread the fear
Before me
All men shall kneel
By steel
I reign supreme

The false ones will call me the tyrant
Their ashes will tell that they're right
Forever in power and glory
The strongest will stand by my side

We're destined to rule by the sword
Forever with steel we are bound
We bring you the metal slaughter
The keys to your death we have found

Born to conquer, not to serve
Raised by wolves, on mankind I've fed
Not for heaven, not for hell
Into the glory of battle again

By steel
I take your lives
By steel
I spread the fear
Before me
All men shall kneel
By steel
I reign supreme

Born to conquer, not to serve
Raised by wolves, on mankind I've fed
Not for heaven, not for hell
Into the glory of battle again

By steel
I take your lives
By steel
I spread the fear
Before me
All men shall kneel
By steel
I reign supreme

3. The Battleslain

Over the hills
Death on the battlefield
Follow the wind
The smell of blood
Sadness will bring
The brother who fall

Sword tight in hand
Bodies lie everywhere
Fought till the death
Till the last breath
You've hailed your ancestors
Now go with them

Raise up your fist
High in the sky
We're thunder, fire and rain
Raise up your voice
From deep inside
Glory to the battle slain

Into the pyre
May all your daring blood
Send high the fire
Up to the sky
The soul of a warrior
The essence of might

Now's time to sing
Hail to the one who fall
Glory and pride
Power and might
Raise up your steel
All sworn to fight

Raise up your fist
High in the sky
We're thunder, fire and rain
Raise up your voice
From deep inside
Glory to the battle slain

4. Preacher

[running wild cover]

Friday night the 13th
At the ruins of a crow
Dark figures come together
For an awful vow
They have sworn to Satan
To celebrate a black mass
Damned rites are prepared
Black angels they bless

Demon and devil, the preacher's parole

Snakeblood and poison
The cauldron is boiling
To condemn the holy cross
Black rites are soiling
Witches are dancing
Around the altar
Praying to their master
To celebrate the holy war

Demon and devil, the preacher's parole

Since million years religion
Keeps knowledge of the dark
The church discloses
Sacred rules to mark
They are full with ignorance
If they don't realize
There's more than they can see
Of religious seize

Demon and devil, the preacher's parole

5. Grind Their Bones

Grind their bones!!!

Raise our flag, the demon banner
Stained in holy blood
Through a path of skulls we ride
To bring 'em hell and storm
Swords of hate and doom we hold
The horns of death resound
Onwards on to victory
Their heads will hit the ground

Our black steeds of destruction
Crush to gore your feeble lines
As fire eats your bodies
Amidst the bloody cries
Raging steel, our metal axes
Cut your heads in two
We show no mercy, still alive?
A slow death waits for you

Grind their bones!!!
Cut their heads, rip their hearts, burn to dust
Grind their bones!!!
Leave behind just a shadow from the past
Grind their bones!!!
Take no slaves, kill them all, drink their blood
Grind their bones!!!
Burn their homes, leave the bodies to the dogs
Grind their bones!!!...

Your bodies fill the battleground
Your foul stench fills the air
We've come to kill and desecrate
Till there's nobody left
Screams of pain and agony
Echoing through the hills
Our mark is set, the path of war
The sign of blood and steel

The darkest powers have been pleased
With this offering of blood
To kill, to rape, to mutilate
For our demonic lords
Then in the dark we disappear
Leaving no trace behind
Blood, destruction, mayhem, fear
Is all what you will find

Grind their bones!!!
Cut their heads, rip their hearts, burn to dust
Grind their bones!!!
Leave behind just a shadow from the past
Grind their bones!!!
Take no slaves, kill them all, drink their blood
Grind their bones!!!
Burn their homes, leave the bodies to the dogs
Grind their bones!!!...

Down on your knees, you cry for mercy, no one stand by your side
But what you deserve is my execution, now I condemn you to die!!!

Our black steeds of destruction
Crush to gore your feeble lines
As fire eats your bodies
Amidst the bloody cries
Raging steel, our metal axes
Cut your heads in two
We show no mercy, still alive?
A slow death waits for you

The darkest powers have been pleased
With this offering of blood
To kill, to rape, to mutilate
For our demonic lords
Then in the dark we disappear
Leaving no trace behind
Blood, destruction, mayhem, fear
Is all what you will find

Grind their bones!!!
Cut their heads, rip their hearts, burn to dust
Grind their bones!!!
Leave behind just a shadow from the past
Grind their bones!!!
Take no slaves, kill them all, drink their blood
Grind their bones!!!
Burn their homes, leave the bodies to the dogs
Grind their bones!!!...

6. Dark Arrival Of Powers Malign

May what was written
And by many foretold
Descends from the chaos beyond
And take back his world

Ritual summoning
Has taken my soul
Atlantean transcription
Dark wisdom of old

Fasting and prayers
Hearing the dogs as they bark
Forbidden knowledge
In communion with the stars

Mysterious wastelands
That must remain forgotten
Condemned and sinked
Gates never to be opened

Prepare for his coming
Prepare for the end of the world
The globular horror
The coming of the all-in-one

Hideous chantings
Performed by unhuman tongues
Cyclopean visions
They come from beyond

Prowling from the planes
He, who's the key and the door
Through space time continuum
Come the last vision of the world

Prepare for his coming
Prepare for the end of the world
The globular horror
The coming of the all-in-one

May what was written
And by many foretold
Descends from the chaos beyond
And take back his world

Prepare for his coming
Prepare for the end of the world
The globular horror
The coming of the all-in-one
