Behind their lies, Were simple minds I showed them the real entity And Erased some lives In all the lands i’ve crossed That’s written Between the lines Fighting the Chaos And this cursed time Vision of a bloody ground Caused by my strength For my honour For my leader The heretics have been erased For My own truth Under my blades Were Anthem of slaves My own crusades Spread away their sanity It was a mission Not attracted to flesh Out of sight In my mind Holding me tight Fighting to find A sign To light us Out of sight In my mind Holding me tight Fighting to find A sign To light us Out of sight (suppurated) In my mind (putrified) Holding me tight Fighting to find A sign To save them Masking my eyes Shivering side Appointed to fight Fighting to find A sign To redeem us Lost in these lines Blinking my eyes Faith has a price For the one who denies Lost in these lines Blinking my eyes Faith has a price For the one who denies Never Failed Hic qui veritas habere credet Eam non quaerit (Enslaved in our fear ) Ego me propriam ignorantiam sum Versus, me ducem (Enslaved in these lies) Fides, me gladium Perditio animae, nostri temporis malum (Enslaved in my mind ) They failed I won’t resign What did I hide Beneath this lie ? What was I preaching for ? Why did I hurt ? What have I done ? Tormented mind They are all blind On a Diverted way Faith as they say I have to break I need to break Their heresy They failed I won’t resign They failed Weakness can't be accepted Lost in these lines (Blinking my eyes) Dismembered to realize (How much compromised they are) They turned the page to black Ruined their soul in doubt I need to find How to liberate/release their mind They failed I won’t resign They failed I will save them again

Hate Them 08:14
At nightfall, All Preparations were done A Nice draught embraced me Behind my book which was closed And I Broke loneliness He has Once again Entrusted An other task to me By taking their lives In reply To their past failures Time has arrived, to cut down a life To devour its fear, and wait forever still My victim has been dismembered Its entrails were on the ground, as an offering to show That I was totally devoted to the Almighty Suddenly, as I heard them coming My talents vanished from me I got Trapped and caught In that place, they retaliated against my own judgment Those foolish ones pretended to be The servants of God, I will be condemned For what I did, They called me the human beast, told me I would suffer in Hell Why must I suffer from « The Question », when I'm the right-hand man of God They carved my flesh And Broke my members, and I collapsed because of lots of torments Burnt with a steaming hot iron, Dived in cold water Been Jailed in an iron virgin In aim to prove my innocence I will be ignored All alone, In my isolation My destiny was already written I remain lost My Knees on the ground My shadow is consuming burning my soul Don't regret, the traitors get what they deserve I, as your God, will lead your life, I' ll show you the truth once i’ll get out of my cage, Human, Kill all vermins on your way and bring them obscure hours But I can't do nothing here I was condemned and chained with my immortality I Shall make you hating this world You do hate it, so let me Rebirth I Shall make you hating This world You do hate it, so let me rebirth

Fallen Ice 06:08
Marked by the cross, Old memory reappears Then lignes are becoming blurred Trapped between hope and hate I asked Gods forever They never answered and left me alone Facing my fate With the hope of finding answers Fallen Ice, chained up to torments Fallen Ice, slowed by this frozen wind Fallen Ice, transcending that barrier By shattering this ice, I get a glimpse of light once again I tried in vain to take revenge on the man with the fair hair, Northen winds led me to Merovee's land That i've crossed in ancient times Far from those heathen Far from their icons Chorus While Harald subjugated one by one the north kingdoms I led my innermost revenge on this host country Which was once more defiled Leaving behind me A torrent of blood My new master realised My real worth Raised me by the strength of the blade I served him under the mark of justice At this moment, I heard the death knell Rang for my former brother-in-arms God had heard my prayers, And had opened the possibility for me To accomplish my revenge Blinded by greed And prom pted by their cowardice Betrayers who dragged me down In my abysmal fall Were going to desecrate a sanctuary of the Almighty Chorus Facing those scums the Taste of blood got Mixed with rage My sword and my spirit became one Left an amount Of rotting corpses Of those ungrateful The ones with whom i've grown up The ones with whom I Shared everything Lifting up their Heads, I looked at their faces I saw in their eyes I was once again alone But with a road Paved with hope That this God Will bring to me

Hearing the sound of a glorious destiny Wasn' t what I Expected It would have turned out this way Since I' ve harassed Since I 've destroyed All my ennemies Among the blood of the biggest battlefield I resisted in the name of Odin The more I killed The more I heaped I showed my worth to him Uncontrolled, I seemed to be out of reach With my bloodstained sword i’ve sharpened and slaughtered Feeling the wind On board of the langskip Taking the swan's road And growing in blood, Facing the world Held by the most valorous Unstoppable, I became possessed I inspired them so much respect I was so great but ignored by the Gods By Tyr, even if I was so strong I was reaching a part of my dreams I was commanding Through the furthest lands I proved Norsemen superiority With my bloodstained sword, I controlled their destiny The more I killed The more I heaped I climbed up the ladder Uncontrolled, I seemed to be out of reach With my bloodstained sword I sharpened and slaughtered Hearing the sound of our victories Always aiming and reaching glory And growing in blood, Facing the world Held by the most valorous Unstoppable, I became possessed I inspired them so much respect I was so great And ignored But the Gods will hear my call Suddenly I felt Something increasing in me Here was The precious key Introducing me to Asgard, Joining them Ases Things moved very fast I am their master now My crown will scell Obediences And my reign will bring A new era, Brighter than the past Join me or die The flesh bruised by... By former brother-in-arms Those I 've given everything Those I brought glory and wealth Ingratitude as only reward Those weaks are not better than the people they despise Thus they decided to give up on pride My fate wasn’t accomplished yet Only death will judge For their actions Traitors Traitors !!!
