Drift Away 04:10
lyrics
buy track
Live your life without question An empty hollow existence Fail to observe and analyze Examine, rationalize, justify It's just the same thing every day Carry out your tasks like a drone No meaning, nothing at all I hope your structure falls Chorus: Now I will drift away to the place I am free I reject this mundane existence, reality Such pointless monotony, I prefer my fantasy Just a speck of nothingness, life devoid of a purpose There is no rhyme or reason No answer to my questions Some people just don't give a shit Content with this banality I prefer life with meaning A life that can't be found So I invent it in my head And get the fuck away from here Chorus Solo Chorus

Quest For Glory 04:35
lyrics

Ride, ride away into the night Into the glorious fight With fire burning in our eyes And no fear that we may die Sworn to an oath, a brotherhood that we fight for With honor to gain, but no rewards, nothing more Selfless and righteous is the cause for which we now fight I raise my sword up high Chorus: Ride! Fight! Kill! Die! No more time to run or hide Now that that battle is done And victory has been won Back home we will ride And mourn our comrades that died Place his sword and helm beside the mound Atop the hill, our newly conquered ground A monument to his infinite memory And the price of glory Chorus On the snowy plains of the north awaits our destiny Long journey awaits, our fate 4,000 miles across the sea Back to the home of the Vikings we sail as brothers in arms And in our true home awaits a new glorious dawn In this new land lies the key to finding ourselves Tear ourselves free from the shackles and the fires of hell Slaying the demons who banish the light with the power bestowed upon me Free from them now and off to a land where I can live free Solo

lyrics

Fire will rain down from the sky Igniting the earth, leaving the land barren Clouds of ash fill the air The ground left completely bare Armageddon has come Chorus: Unearthly fires come to scorch the earth As the cryptic prophecy has foretold Now as the end draws near Human hearts are filled with fear The stench of death fills the air Total chaos has prevailed Solo Chorus

The Other Side 05:12
lyrics
buy track
All this struggle has been in vain Nothing remains, nothing but pain And uncontrollable fucking rage With every breath, closer is death Tired of it all, it's fucking war I'm not gonna take it anymore How I long to make you cry And by my hand you'll fucking die Chorus: Life fades away Vision turns grey My soul's gone black No turning back Countdown to the end, it has begun And what I must do, it will be done I know that soon my life will fade As I grow weaker every day Now I see the other side The place I will go when I die But on that journey I will be joined And taking you will be my greatest joy Chorus Come with me to the other side Solo Chorus

Into the Abyss 06:10
lyrics
buy track
I have become the demon And I have destroyed the world I have become immortal At the cost of my own soul Chorus: Now my life has passed me by My regrets flash before my eyes Please god just let me die Doomed to suffer eternal life With the world in barren ruins There is nowhere that I can turn No one with whom to share my pain Alone for the rest of my days And now I realize The demon inside Cannot be defeated My journey to the abyss is now complete Chorus Solo
