1. Jikininki
They rose from the night ; shouldn't ever been born
Ghouls from the lives that ended so torn
Cursed for the decayed souls they once had
Dishonored warriors no eyes can be laid..
Upon these times of fear and hate
the shadows twisted form on the walls
Upon these times of sin and retributions unclaimed
the spirits will march in the night
Wretched spirits in the night
Despair forms a darkness solid on a torn empire
Spectres roam all around the land
Beings unspoken gathered here from afar
No redemption
Doomed to scavenge!
No freedom
Gods revenge!
Shackles remain on the fallen
No redemption!
No redemption
Hatred pierces the hearts of men
bringing down the August Star Of Heaven
Now cursed will be all that once was pure
No forgiveness shall be given..
Upon these times of fear and hate
the shadows twisted form on the walls
Upon these times of sin and retributions unclaimed
the spirits will march in the night
Wretched spirits in the night
Despair forms a darkness solid on a torn empire
Spectres roam all around the land
Beings unspoken gathered here from afar
No redemption
Doomed to scavenge!
No freedom
Gods revenge!
Shackles remain on the fallen
No redemption!
No redemption
2. Hold The Sword
Behold the signs of the never-ending war,
the furious screams of the gods
As the nightfall sets to the distance,
the blood of the warriors light the sky
This moment is ready to be ruined,
by those who dishonor the blade
As he looks into their eyes he sees fear;
the bleeding wounds are no excuse
No Excuse!
Even those who lead the way,
show fear in their hearts
Time has come for the One to rise
to show where courage is, when it can't be found
The birth of the child of war,
the one who will define the way,
for those who shall be carrying the blade till the end of days
Fate only smiles to the wise,
who put themselves aside
Who are ready to die, embrace the form
of honor in its purest form,
the honor of dying,
as you're holding the sword
Fight!
Like the last man in the night,
holding the front alone, and the
Fear!
Shall be no more if the one's prepared
to hold the sword
Hold the sword!
Fight!
Like the last man in the night,
holding the front alone, and the
Fear!
Shall be no more if the one's prepared
to hold the sword
Hold the sword!
Tales shall be written in his honor, his
cause will define a man. The strongest of all
will bow to him, the child of the god of war.
3. Fallen Amaterasu
Left to rot by our actions unspoken
Her flesh consumed by times of ignorance
No-one gave her glory for the light she brought upon us
our fates sealed by her hatred burning forever
Flames upon myself
for I didn't bow for her brightness
No food grows in the land burnt to ashes
no water flows in a world where her fury has ripped the soil in half
Please hear our cries, forgive us oh goddess
Tears in your eyes, shame on us oh goddess
Fallen
The goddess of sun
Fallen
The mistress of light
Fallen by our souls,
which gave her no hope
Fallen by our eyes,
which gave her only lies
The goddess of the sun
We'll see thy will be done
We serve you, righteous one
Please hear our cries, forgive us oh goddess
Tears in your eyes, shame on us oh goddess
Fallen
The goddess of sun
Fallen
The mistress of light
Fallen by our souls,
which gave her no hope
Fallen by our eyes,
which gave her only lies
4. One Man's Burden
Stained he feels, as the day turns to night
the man once strong, feared and bold, now just tired, weak and old
Past is haunting his trail to the end
the walls laugh at his grief, the wraiths of past haunt him so deep
He writes the words of regret,
for every victim of his blade, for every selfish act of hate
Hours of terror, the screams of the innocent
Murders unordered, will follow him to the grave
Last days of this man unforgiven
His heart starts to understand
honoring the dead is to live again
but the mans burden remains.
Heavens wear black, his mind won't rest
the water he drinks turns rotten, the eyes of the others impale him.
Left alone in the end! Darkness surrounds him
to end his life as a warrior, he reaches the sword he used to hold
Last days of this man unforgiven
His heart starts to understand
honoring the dead is to live again
will the one man's burden still remain
in death?
Confused soul, The moment for final blow,
the steel grows cold in the old mans hand, his thoughts are a raving storm.
Demons won't leave, his eyes still open
still the laughter can be heard, even when he's left this world
Last days of this man unforgiven
His heart starts to understand
is it to die or to live again,
that gives him a measure of peace,
will the one mans burden remain?
5. Kappa
Screams from deep bellow,
the foul air smells of death
The townsfolk gathered to pray
for the last hours of their lives
As the night falls, fear grows
locked doors won't hold back
the one who craves for
fresh human blood and your newborn children
The sacrifices weren't enough,
to keep it in its watery realm
judging the fate of all,
this being twisted now arises
When the night falls demise of man
cannot be put aside
No mercy upon our kind,
when the skin scaled is upon sight, the time has come to die
From the depths of the waters, the child of river will rise
Lifeless eyes of the creature reflect the dark of the night
Bring yourselves for the Kappa, the ancient lord of black waters
Bring your children for Kappa, fresh human blood for the Kappa
The last ones running like hell,
hunted, scattered and scared
The ground is stained red,
as it pursues forth to kill
Savaging the last of the women,
crunching remains of the men
Ripping remaining pieces of their flesh
leaving living ones choking on their own blood
From the depths of the waters, the child of river will rise
Lifeless eyes of the creature reflect the dark of the night
Bring yourselves for the Kappa, the ancient lord of black waters
Bring your children for Kappa, fresh human blood for the Kappa
6. Lady Of The Wind
Frozen figure stands in the storm
Flakes of snow embrace the essence of her earthly form
Her eerie song heard through dales and mountains far away
Brings a curse on those who dare to listen
Floating above the plains she wanders in her realm
Hearing screams of her prey draw closer
She gazes upon the fields where battle rages eternally
Waiting for warriors weakened to fall in her arms
In their eyes they saw her presence grim float above the ice
Wounded still they crawled towards her call
They hoped to find salvation from her arms, white and pure
But the storm grew strong as they closed her figure
Cursed be this woman
The lady of the wind
Night casts its shadow on the field of battle
Few still breathing but the air turns cold
She appeared like a spirit of death
Blizzard veil in ground around her
Embracing the last of the living with her hands
Young and cold as ice
In our eyes we saw her presence grim float above the ice
Wounded still we crawled towards her call
We hoped to find salvation from her arms, white and pure
But the storm grew strong as we closed her figure
Cursed be this woman
The lady of the wind
In our eyes we saw her presence grim float above the ice
Wounded still we crawled towards her call
We hoped to find salvation from her arms, white and pure
As we reached her gown we felt her hands slowly sweeping our lives away
7. Unrestrained
A haze of doubt surrounds my thoughts as I hide
from my fate, for I'm not ready to die
I've given my heart and soul for my sword,
but the path seems obscured
Was the vow I've given for my life absolute lie
Shameful acts create a void
tearing me down
I try to reach my pride
But I just run
I try to be so strong,
but I fail
One must never flee, (if the world is burning)
you will find a comrade of your blade, do not hesitate
One must never fall, (for the views of the weak)
by giving your blood for the steel, you're reborn, saved, unrestrained
The end of the line, the end of me draws nigh
Rage flows through me as I wonder why
I cannot hold my hate, I'm condemned in shame
For the code of war I am merely a man
One must never flee, (if the world is burning)
you will find a comrade of your blade, do not hesitate
One must never fall, (for the views of the weak)
by giving your blood for the steel, you're reborn, saved, unrestrained
8. Upon My Honor
Prominent I stand as I lead my men to war
With banners held high "we'll waste 'em all" I swore
I seek within myself, find no fear as we march
God of eight banners by our side, the soil beneath our feet will parch
Ahead!
I scream as we draw our swords
Tonight!
Death claims every single soul
but mine
The blood stains the ground
But upon my honor I'll return!
The blades cut so deep
But upon my honor I'll return!
Five thousand arrows pierce me
But upon my honor I'll return!
The light before me fades away
but Upon my honor I'll return!
Victorious we'll return!
Impaled I stand they
want to see me fall
Their hands tremble,
I'm ready to face 'em all
Smile on my face, I approach
their formation weak
One by one they turn around,
scared, I made them retreat
The cries of men held a sweet promise
of their defeat
I walked among the chaos witnessing
the August Star O Heaven coming down
The earth shook as he laid his feet to the ground
watching me with pride, for I brought him
a true harmony of blood
Ahead!
I scream as we wield our swords
Hold the line!
I shout as we face their hordes
Ahead!
I scream with blood filled lungs
Tonight!
We will claim every single soulĀ
with pride
The blood stains the ground
The blades cut so deep
Five thousand arrows pierce me
But upon my honor I'll return!
The light before me fades away
but Upon my honor I'll return!
Victorious we'll return!
