Be wary of others
The ones closest to you (oh)
The poison they feed you
And the voodoo that they do
But in rebellion
There's a sparkle of truth
Don't just stand there
Do what you got to do
You'll find it in rebellion
Your body starts breathing
They're not believing what they're seeing
'Cause you're rebellion
You'll find it so compelling
With everyone yelling
'Cause your soul, you're not selling
'Cause you're rebellion
Be wary of others
The ones closest to you (oh)
The poison they feed you
And the voodoo that they do
But in rebellion
There's a sparkle of truth
Don't just stand there
Do what you got to do
You'll find it in rebellion
Your body starts breathing
They're not believing what they're seeing
'Cause you're rebellion
You'll find it so compelling

You say that we sold our soul to the devil, that we're out of control
Your torture my brothers, torture my sisters, kill all friends
You say that we worship a god, like a cat, a devil in disguise
You execute my family, steal their breath, and burn them till death
I'm burning, I'm dying,
I'm burning, I'm dying,
Oh Lord, won't you help me
I'm burning, I'm dying,
When I feel my end is near
When I feel the reaper's here
Crackling fire I can hear
When I feel my end is near
When I feel the reaper's here
I watch the demons
Dancing round my tears
I'm innocent - it's not true I never prayed
We will all be treated the same way at Doomsday
I curse Pope and King - you won't make it another year
The Last Judgement will decide who was wrong or who was right

[Arena Silentii Mea]
Ich mochte die stille mein eigen nennen.
Die zeit rast, als hatte sie es eilig zu vergehen.
Raub den menschen Ihre Illusion, so zerstorst du auch Ihr streben
Es fehlen so viele worte in einem buch, so viele Tone in einem stuck musik
Das einzige woran ich wirklich zu glauben vermag ist die wut.
Die gro?te starke des menschen ist demnach auch seine schwache...
Ich mochte die stille mein eigen nennen, mein besitz.
Verstehst du mich nicht?
Horst du mich nicht?
Avec des larmes dans la voix
Je t'ecoute
Tu deformes la resignation
Je te demande cent fois
Comment etait-ce possible?
La rebellion du silence
Fragile image
juste un moment avant

Two alone in a sack of skin
Playing the role of slave master of war
That is my lot
Separated but still united
Bound to emptiness, bound to flesh
That is my hell
Penitent rebel
Riding the ether or groveling in the mud
I know how little is the value of that which has a price
Rebellion!
Instinct is not the path of man
Rebellion!
Renunciation is not the divine way
Two alone in a sack of skin
Playing the role of slave master of war
That is my lot
Separated but still united
Bound to emptiness, bound to flesh
Captured and tortured
I don`t want this, I want to leave
How can one go when one has already arrived?
Flight is an illusion
And even triumph is bitter
When only the battle is counted
I know how little is the value of that which has a price
Rebellion!
Instinct is not the path of man
Rebellion!
Renunciation is not the divine way

I bust it so control
take matters in my own hands
I must have saw control
my rebellion starts now
Give me fuel 'cause I'm picking up space
please underestimate me
I realize now if you gave me the meet to be.
then myself know for support my cars
no one else could give you a boss
floss and know I made as a boss
of the fact of my life now I take charge
Now my rebels are so wild and.
you should know that the more we go to hell
If you a rebel why not to .
time to take charge send em all to hell
The night deck maybe fight back
you look.put me on the right track
like this so like that
okay give me right back
on that mission to see is control
on the soul of the.fast soul
.to be used and abused again oh no
now I take charge
Now my rebels are so wild and.
you should know that the more we go to hell
If you a rebel why not to.
time to take charge send em all to hell
rebels rebels all wild.
time to take charge
time to see control
I bust it so control
take matters in my own hands
I must have saw control
is my charge and my rebellion starts right now
Rebellion
Rebellion

I'm lookin' back
throughout all time and history
when people raised the flags
to get rid of all tyranny
how many times
how long will they control the fate
everywhere the people fight
oppression all the time
Revolution is what they need
Revolution is the answer they give
they're fighting back for what is right
to get the rights back
Rebellion
to be free again
Rebellion
now it's time again
Always the same
and nothin' ever changed for me
I always try to break the chains
that hold my freedom down
I'm underground
some blame me for the way I look
I've got enough to prove
that I'm as good as other ones
Revolution is what you need
Revolution is the answer I'll give
I'm fighting back for what is right
to get my rights back
We carry on
it's rebellion that they want
we don't take the blame for the misery

Up in the sky, beyond the stars
Lies the answer to who we are?
When time was born, the gods lived in peace
Lucifer was beloved by them all
And taught him the creationary pattern
Physics of birth, Merkaba!
Our infernal living force, but instead
He procreated a new race, somewhat out in space
In incubators they were born, bred to fight the great war
In the heavens, his goal was to conquer, battle broke out
Many angels and grey died, others led the sky
The gods grew angry and cast Satan to hell
The captured greys were sent to Mars.
Raping angels, destroying hope asteroids used to fight the way
Awaiting the night when Satan will rise, growing smarter all the time
Left brained demigods creating beasts that fly
Unholy vengeance in the sky
Lasers attack the pearly gates.
Invasion.
St. Michael prevailed this war
Defending his precious sky
And his faithful servants, all the angels who have died
The galactic federation are despised
After years of plotting, the second attack was not successful either
Still they wait to avenge
Galaxies and constellations are at war
The quest to kill the god for ever more
Monuments on Mars record the tale of a universe that thrived with life
Now their planet is devoured, they need to survive
Blasting through the sky, evolve throughout the century.
The galactic federation loathes these deities
Living here on earth they breed
Awaiting the Lucifer rebellion 3, will they succeed?

Father, I've found a ship
to take me away
Pack my box and get me ready
No time to waste astray
Father, in a week i will be gone
To Miklagard on dragon's wings
There's riches to be won
To Uppsala
Odin and Thor
May they guard my way
Where i've never walked before
Sweden, oh Sweden
My fatherland my home
I pray to see your shores again
Tomorrow i'll be gone
Sweden, oh Sweden
Heathen stronghold in the black
Odin walks amidst your trees
May he guide me back
I saw an old man passing by
Under his cloak the flicker of an eye
As i turned
to ask his name
He was gone just as he came
I know i'm not alone
He will watch me far from home
And his wisdom be the light
And his courage in the fight
Odin, to Uppsala i shall come
To honour you with sacrifice
as it must be done
Oh Odin, i raise my hands to thee and pray
Give me strength and wisdom

The golden roofs of Miklagard
I see you shining in the sun
My destiny lies within these walls
Oh Miklagard
The golden roofs of Miklagard
I see you shining in the sun
My destiny lies within these walls
Oh Miklagard
I saw you in my fever dreams
Mighty walls of shining grace
From a different world it seems
A golden glimmer on my face
Across the lands across the sea
I've travelled far I will succeed
Now I am passing through your gate
Within these walls there lies my fate
Ref.:
The golden roofs of Miklagard
I see you shining in the sun
My destiny lies within these walls
Oh Miklagard
Palaces of gold and stone
The riches of the world for trade
A harbour larger than the fjords at home
A city that the gods have made
From the lands of ice I came
To Miklagard for honour and fame
One of the emperor's guard to be

Fly fly Hugin and Munin
Thoughts and memories you have seen
Ravens sit on my shoulders
I must know what has been
Gunghir made of Yggdrasil's own wood
Show the world who I am
Odin the father of gods
Berserks die screaming my name
Father of all the Gods
Odin I am
Slayer of giants of ice
Odin I am
Reaper of battlefields
Odin I am
Master of runes and war
Odin I am
I sit in my halla on Hlidskialf
I can see the future and the end
Ragnarök death of the Gods
Where I'll make my final stand
I strove to find future and knowledge
When I drank from wisdom's spring
One eye I gave to Mimir the guardian

As Rurik fought in Nowgorod
Askod and Dyr they went on
To build a town on dnepr's banks
To rise mighty and strong
Look out friends there she lies
In the days fading light
The mighty city of the rus
In all her beauty and pride
Rising mighty and tall
The castle guarding your walls
On dnepr's shores you stand
The river's rule you defend
Oh Kiew Kiew
Never to fall
Kiew Kiew
There's taverns plenty mugs of beer
Ladies give inviting smiles
Just what we need
After weeks on the sea
And we enjoy it all for a while
Many stories we hear
About the rapids ahead
Treacherous and mean like Loki's child
Taking the lives of many a man

Fifteen years, too young to die
The saint he fell within the last battlecry
But the time has come for you not yet
Escape from the battle of Stiklestad
Baptized by the sword and the shield
Destined to be kind
The last in line
Lead this epoch to an end
To be written in blood
Named Harald Hadrade
Out there in the world, afar from home
Explore all the east and grow up so strong
No riches, fights or prisonwalls
Will keep you away, when your destiny calls
Baptized by the sword and the shield
Destined to be kind
The last in line
Lead this epoch to an end
To be written in blood
Named Harald Hadrade
See Norway lies bare down to your feet
King Mgnus died, now your crown is complete
At Englands shores you will just arrive
To fight your last battle and pay with your life
Baptized by the sword and the shield
Destined to be kind
The last in line
Lead this epoch to an end
To be written in blood

Peace descending slowly
On the fields of blood
Eyes staring empty
Life runs in the mud
Skogul clad in mist
To choose amidst the gore
Those fallen heroes
Whom Hel shall have nevermore
To drink forever
Valkyries serving Heidrun's mead
To feast on Saehmnir's meat
Daily risen from the dead
To live a warrior's life
Reckless and hard
To walk, to live, to breathe, to die
The honour of Asgard
Come all you heroes
The slain of battlefields
Einherjars warriors
Your fate long revealed
Come sons of Odin
Welcome in Valhall
Einherjars heroes
On Wigrid thou shalt fall
To sit with Odin
His guest and adopted son
To live in Valhall
Until Ragnarök may come
To fight aside the Gods
On Wigrid's fields of blood
To die a second time
Within the final blood

I fought like a free man so I broke the law
The way of the vikings don't count here no more
And strong is the arm of the tyrant that rules
The Jarls of the free they were taken like fools
So friends come aboard and away on the sea
The shores of France seem a promise to me
Battles to be fought their king he is weak
There's land to be taken a fortune to seek
Cause we'll stay free
A master of the waves a wolf of the sea
Cause we'll stay free
Ho ho Gang Hrolf
Ho ho Gang Hrolf
Freedom is the goal that you fight for in life
Let no tyrant take it away
Freedom is all that is left on my hands
And a wolf of the see I shall stay
The battles are won and the simple asks for peace
Here I shall rule as the Duke of Normandy
They tell me kiss his feet so I lift them to my face
I'll never bow my head nor any of my race
Cause we'll stay free
A master of the waves a wolf of the sea
Cause we'll stay free
Ho ho Gang Hrolf
Ho ho Gang Hrolf
Freedom is the goal that you fight for in life
Let no tyrant take it away
Freedom is all that is left on my hands

We'll sail across the seas for glory and for gold
Raid the Saxon shores tales are to be told
One thousand northern warriors axes made of steel
Our banners drenched in blood the nightmare it is real
On the wing of the storn
We let the dragons fly
Dragons fly
Like the raven through the air
Come and let the dragons fly
Drgons fly
We ride the northern winds icy and stone cold
Born for battle heroes don't grow old
Burn your churches to the ground and hang your priests up
high
Feed the ravens in the sky
Into battle like a berserk now we storm for the attack
Cut and kill we take your life as your world fades into
black
Northern gods their battle song is what you hear before
you die

You call my kind of music devil's work
You say I live in sin but I want it all
I am of Babylon
The pleasures of the flesh
I rule the thunderstorm
I'm oreaching rock'n'roll
You call our women the fallen angels
Like sirens they would lure our souls
We are of Babylon hard to satisfy
The seed of evil
Burning out before I die
Don't need your faith your religion
I was born a devil's child
I'm gonna stay the way I am
Free and wild
Don't wanna bow my head
I was born a devil's child
I never kneel I'm standing strong
Free and wild
What is right what is wrong
I don't care what you say
Too much blood has been spiled
In the name of the god that you pray
The word is war that you pray
Ruthless liars
Like rats you lead the dumb who can not see
Into your heaven
Then hell is where I'll choose to be
I'm a devil's child

Kvasir was killed
And his blood turned into
A mead giving wisdom to thee
Sutton the giant
He locked it away
In Hnitbjork, he won't set it free
Odin, for wisdom's sake
Empty Odrornir to spit it all out
Over Midgard as to make
The song come alive, sung out loud
Bolverk Bolverk
Odin's trickery
To lie with a giantess
Three days in a row
Bolverk Bolverk
Giant snake and eagle
To soar in the sky
As wisdom you will glow
In the middle of the mountain
The mead guarded by
Gunlod a giantess fair
Odin she saw
Disguised in a lie
His manhood eager to dare
Three days he did last
And the mead he did drink
Into an eagle he turned to fly
The mead he did spit
As to make Midgard think

Towards the rapids
Down the dnepr did we glide
To cross Esuppi was a wild water ride
And past Holmfors and Geladri did we steer
Her voice like thousand demons
Ringing in our ear
Aifur now before us lies
And we stare with open eyes
Upon the rapid waters racing down
She is dangerous and strong
Slow the ship as we go on
And the currents pull
The dragon down oh down
Aifur the wild
Raging waters over rocks
Sharp as a sword for attack
Aifur the wild
May Thor guide the ship
Past your demons so black
Violent forever more
I stand amidst the boiling waters
Towering high
The rocks are sharp
And slippery watch out or die
Against the currents
40 viking warriors fight
For many hours now
Until the break of night
Watch your feet never slip
Hold the boat don't lose the grip
All the power worn the strength is gone
Just one more hour and we're through
Aifur now we've challenged you

Are you looking for the ultimate kick
For the drug to gain some speed
Forget cocaine its Adrenaline
And heavy meral that's what you need
Burning like a fire like a demon in the night
Feeding on your energy you know we've got the right
Eating up the miles we're heading down the motorway
And we never stop you know it well we're here to stay
Got the power to take it to the top
Filled with energy never to drop
I am agression I run through the walls that you keep
Adrenalin the ultimate speed
Adrenalin
Playing hard and playing fast we never turn it down
Welcome to our metal blast we'll turn your worlds around
Raging through your hometown through the streets you know
so well
Tonight we rule we'll take the streets we'll take you

Yggdrasil
Ash tree of life
Keep in balance
The worlds as apart they strife
Yggdrasil
Rooted deep in Jotunheim
In Nilfheim near Hyergelmir
And in Gladsheim in Asgard
Oh Asgard where Gods dwell
As the ancient Sagas tell
Bifrost cross may those who die
Where Valkyries fly
Oh Asgard and Gladsheim
Hope to see it in my time
Passing Heimdall as I die
Where Valkyries fly
Valhalla
Heroes who are gone
Fight and drink each day anew
Till Ragnarök may come
Valhalla
The Einherjars' home
Reliving battle's glory

The crown , my deeds Like a burden does it seem
I stand all alone In a dark and empty dream
Such is the bitter taste
Of the blarney outta hell
There was a life to waste
And the witches did it well
Here as I sit
On a cold and empty throne
The thanes, most men
All have fled I am alone
Such is the bitter taste
Of my hopes about to fall
There was a life to waste
I see demons rising tall
[Bridge:]
No use to run and hide
No use to run and hide
[Ref.:]
Now as my dreams lie there in pieces
Where is the glory after all
Now as I stand amidst the ruins
I see demons rising tall
Demons rising tall
Still I am invincible
No fear in my heart there'll be
No man man of woman born
Shall have power over me
Yet there is a bitter taste
Of the madness that did fall.
I had a life to waste
I see demons rising tall
[Macbeth:] They have tied me to a stake. I cannot fly, but bear-like I must fight the course. What's he that was not born of woman? Such a one am I to fear, or none.
[Young Siward:] What is thy name?
[Macbeth:] Thou'lt be afraid to hear it.
[Young Siward:] No, though thou call'st thyself a hotter name than any is in hell.
[Macbeth:] My name's Macbeth.
[Young Siward:] The devil himself could not pronounce a title more hateful to mine ear.
[Macbeth:] No, nor more fearful.
[Young Siward:] Thou liest, abhorred tyrant. With my sword I'll prove the lie thou speak'st.
[They fight, and young Siward is slain]
[Macbeth:] Thou wast born of woman, but swords I smile at, weapons laugh to scorn, brandished by man that's of a woman bom.
[Macbeth:] Why should 1 play the Roman fool, and die on mine own sword? Whiles I see lives, the gashes do better upon them.
[Enter Macduff]
[Macduff:] Turn, hell-hound, turn.
[Macbeth:] Macduff, of all men else I have avoided thee. But get thee back. My soul is too much charged with blood of thine already.
[Macduff:] I have no words; My voice is in my sword, thou bloodier villain than terms can give thee out.
[They fight]
[Macbeth:] Thou losest labour. As easy mayst thou the intrenchant air with thy keen sword impress as make me bleed. Let fall thy blade on vulnerable crests; I bear a charmed life, which must not yield to one of woman born.
[Macduff:] Despair thy charm, and let the angel whom thou still hast served tell thee Macduff was from his mother's womb untimely ripped.
[Macbeth:] Accursed be that tongue that tells me so, for it hath cowed my better part of man; and be these juggling fiends no more believed, that palter with us in a double sense, that keep the word of promise to our ear and break it to our hope. I'll not fight with thee.
[Macduff:] Then yield thee, coward,
[Macbeth:] I will not yield to kiss the ground before your feet, and to be baited with the rabble's curse.

[Summary of the Plot]
At the beginning of the play, we look upon Macbeth as a shining hero. On behalf of his king, Duncan, he has just defeated the traitor Macdonwald, quelling high treason and subversion, safeguarding the rule of the king, so Scotland can look forward to a new era of peace. On their way from the battlefield the commanders Macbeth and Banquo meet three witches, who foretell the warriors promising prophecies: To Macbeth they predict the Thanehood of Glamis and of Cawdor - and eventually even the crown of Scotland, to Banquo, oil the other hand, that he would be father of a line of Kings.
Macbeth is already the Thane of Glamis, and out of gratitude the king soon bestows the Thanehood of Cawdor upon him. So the fulfilment of the last prediction seems to be close at hand. Only King Duncan himself stands in the way of Macbcth's aroused ambitions. It seems like a stroke of fate when the grateful king arrives as a guest at the castle of the Thane of Glamis and Cawdor to express his profound gratitude to this outstanding warrior. Unlike Macbeth, who feels covetous but hesitant, his wife is prepared to act. She spurs on her husband, encouraging him to seize this supposed opportunity of fate like a man. Macbeth stabs the defenceless king in his sleep, and with the help of his wife he succeeds in casting suspicion upon the king's guards. Rut while the majority of the Scottish noblemen do not dare to question his story, Malcolm, the king's son, escapes to England with a number of faithful followers. Among them is Macduff, next to Macbeth one of Scotland's most influential Thanes.
Macbeth, the king's murderer, is crowned King of Scotland soon afterwards but the fruits from his deed taste sour. Macbeth can neither enjoy his status nor his power as the ruling king for even a single moment. Worry and anxiety are casting dark shadows on his life. .After all, as the witches have predicted, Banquo would be the forefathers of a new line of kings - for the childless Macbeth a source of constant threat and fear. Before long, he hires assassins to kill Banquo, the supposed father of kings and only other person who knows about the witches' prophecies. But the admonishing ghost of the murdered Banquo appears in front of Macbeth's eyes at a banquet. From this point on, it becomes apparent to what extent Macbeth has already succumbed to madness and is being pursued by the ghosts of his murdered victims.
Again Macbeth seeks out the witches to ask them about his future. They assure him that no man of woman born would ever be a threat for him, yet Macbeth should beware of Macduff, whom he can only conquer through violence.
Macbeth feels encouraged by the witches' predictions and sets about "clearing up" among his supposed enemies. In his growing madness, he turns from a murderer into a tyrant, and the whole country moans and suffers under the strokes of his raging terror. Macduff, the Thane of Fife, is still in England, and since the tyrant is unable to get hold of him he resolves to destroy the castle of the alleged traitor, giving his wife, children and servants to the sword.
But while Macbeth seeks safety in destruction and bloodshed, his lady's strength of mind begins to falter; walking in her sleep, she constantly tries to wash invisible blood from her hands - the blood of the murdered King Duncan. Lady Macbeth dies finally as a victim of her own madness, of her feelings of guilt. The tyrant himself suffers from increasing madness and deep depressions so much so that he can hardly mourn the death of his wife. He begins to realise that all his efforts and killings will neither bring him happiness nor satisfaction. Yet, on the strength of the witches' predictions, he still believes himself deceptively safe, drawing from them the strength to prepare for the impending battle. Under the leadership of Duncan's son Malcolm and Macduff, the English and many Scots have united and arc marching on Macbeth's seat, Dunsinane, with a powerful army. Faced with these superior troops the tyrant's men flee from him, until he finally finds himself alone. Still being convinced of his own invincibility Macbeth awaits the onslaught of the enemy troops. Caught in a deadly combat with Macduff, Macbeth finds out that his opponent was cut from his mother's womb and was therefore not born by a woman. Only then he realises that he has fallen victim to the witches' prank. Realising the full extent of his delusion, he comes to his senses and understands that his own death is imminent. Yet he does not attempt to flee but faces the battle with Macduff and is finally slain.
Let the Story begin...
[Narrator:]
As we know man does not walk the earth alone
but is surrounded by strange creatures and spirits.
Some of these may sometimes try to lure man into their own influence...
for their own entertainment...
and to steal away the most precious gem dwelling in each of us... our soul.
Man may choose the path he follows, but its direction may at times:
not be what it seems...
This tale is about one of the most valiant heroes that ever walked the Scottish soil.
It tells his glorious deeds, his hopes, his ambitions, his rise...
and his fall... yet it does not start with its protagonist... rather with its demons...
[First Witch:] When shall we three meet again, in thunder lightning or in rain
[Second Witch:] When the Hurlyburly 's done, when the battles lost and won
[Third witch:] That will be ere the set of sun
[First Witch:] Where the place?
[Second Witch:] Upon the heath.

[Prologue]
[Lady Macbeth:]
The raven himself is hoarse
That croaks the fatal entrance of Duncan
Under my battlements
Come, you spirits
That tend on mortal thoughts, unsex me here,
And fill me from the crown to the toe top-full
Of direst cruelty
Come to my woman's breasts, make thick my blood
And take my milk for gall, you murd'ring ministers,
Come, thick night,
And pall thee in the dunnest smoke of hell, That my keen knife see not the wound it makes, Nor heaven peep through the blanket of the dark To cry "Hold, hold'"
[Macbeth:]
We still have judgement here, that we but teach Bloody instructions which, being taught, return To plague th' inventor. This even-handed justice Commends th' ingredience of our poisoned chalice to our own lips. He's here in double trust: First, as I am his kinsman and his subject, strong both against the deed, then, as his host, who should against his murderer shut the door, not bear the knife myself.
[Decision]
No further shall we go
I've been honoured don't you know
I should stand by Duncan's side
Not kill the man in greedy pride
Did you not hope, did you not dream
The hero I knew like a coward does seem
Had I spoken as you did
There would be no mercy I would stick to it
[Bridge:]
The crown - my deeds
The men who do betray
The crown - my deeds
Every man must find his way
[Ref.:]
Husbandry in heaven
Fair is foul and foul is fair
Thunder cracks the sky
And there is evil in the air
Husbandry in heaven
Prophecies they turn to hate
Kill the king take the crown
Macbeth what is your fate
What man does I will dare
But for more I shall never care
Once you talked mischief to me
Then you were a man - wild and free
If we fail what will become
No way to hide what we've done
Screw your courage forget your fear
Stab him in his sleep the crown is so near
You screw your courage to the sticking place
You can do the murder with a smile on your face
[The Murder]
[Macbeth:]
Is this a dagger which I see before me,
The handle towards my hand? Come, let me clutch thee.
I have thee not, and yet I see thee still.
Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible
To feeling as to sight? Or art thou but
A dagger of the mind, a false creation
Proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain?
I see thee yet, inform as palpable
As this which now I draw.
Thou marshall'st me the way that I was going,
And such an instrument I was to use.
I see thee still,
And on thy blade and dudgeon gouts of blood,
Which was not so before. There's no such thing.
It is the bloody business which informs
Thus to mine eyes.
Nature seems dead, and wicked dreams abuse
The curtained sleep. Witchcraft celebrates
The weird sisters offerings,
The murder shall be done.
Thou sure and firm-set earth,
Hear not my steps which way they walk, for fear
Thy very stones prate of my whereabout,
I go, and it is done The bell invites me.
Hear it not, Duncan; for it is a knell
That summons thee to heaven or to hell.
[Epilogue]
As the owl shrieked with a single cut
I took his life I spilled his blood
So red are these hands like I 've never seen
So red are these hands will they ever be clean
I heard a voice it cried sleep no more
The king is dead his life spilled on the floor
Macbeth he takes the crown with blood on his hands
He shall sleep no more until the end
[Narrator:]
Oh Macbeth, you have it all now, just as the witches have promised, but you played most foully for it.
Suspicion of the murder however falls upon the king's sons, who flee to England accompanied only by a handful of loyal knights and Thanes, amongst them Macduff.

I dwell up high
I send my armies off to die
I smile with glee
I hold the lead you won't be free
And as your children march to fight
To hail the glory of my name
They're taking lives they're spilling blood
This is the nature of my game
Kneel down and pray
For paradise
You will rise
My word is war
Writ' in blood to roam your mind forevermore
Word is war
My word is war
My word is war
Born in hell to seek you out to eat you raw
Word is war
My word is war
Word is war
Your skull white bone
They fill my hall and on my thorne
I sit I rule
All the warriors all the fools
I hear the voices from the grave
They sing the glory of my name
I bath in blood I drink your life

Welcome friend, you are invited to join us till the end
Come on in and close the door behind you, take my hand
Leave all your sins and troubles out of there blessed
walls
I'm your show master now, judgement day it's called
Hear the wolves outsdide
They want us dead, no mercy in their eyes
But god gave me a sign
We can be saved, say god bye now, see you the other side
Follow me right through the fire
It will purify your sins
Keep belief, I'm the messiah
And judgement now begins
Is it a flicker of doubt, is it fear within your eyes
Now there is no return trust and you shall rise
No, I never let you go, a sheep belongs to it's flock
Look around and realize that all the dorrs are locked
Hear the wolves outside
No one of us will leave this house alive
The die is cast my friend
You'll have to follow me walk through the fire to your

I've been to Sicily to fight the arabs back
In Odins name i raised my axe for the attack
Serving in Haralds ranks, for honour and for fame
And now we're back in the grand town
to raise our claim
Storm and fire
we'll provoke to those
Standing in our way, a sanguine river flows
Call on the warriors
Varangians unite
Dethrone the emperor
The gods want us to fight
Remember the good times
When we were young and full of pride
The uprising begins, the palace burns
Head for the storm with us or die
Open the dungeon gates
for Harald to break free
Let's follow him in union and for victory
Down To the chappel
where the emperor tries to hide
Michael the 5th you're dead and gone,

Away from Icelands shores I must,
the king says I must go
Some neighbours asked a fight with me
and I laid their bodies low
Now my face is in the wind again
and friends are by my side
The green land we are looking for
and we trust in Odin's might
Come join me now I know the way,
(We'll be free!)
No king to rule us down
(Ride the sea!)
Man the boats and hoist the sails,
(All hands on deck!)
There's land to find I know,
(Don't look back!)
Through the wind and storm I'll carry on
To a new land where the sun will dawn
In the wind and storm I'll raise my head
Eric the Red
My son I see the fire in your eyes
as I felt when I was young
And I've listened to the Skalds and tales, you've gotta
go as I have done
But it's your way Leif Eriksson,
the Red has come too old
The Vinland you will find I know,
Ride the wind be strong and bold
Come join me now I know the way,
(We'll be free!)
No king to rule us down
(Ride the sea!)
Man the boats and hoist the sails,
(All hands on deck!)
There's land to find I know,
(Don't look back!)
Through the wind and storm I'll carry on
To a new land where the sun will dawn
In the wind and storm I'll raise my head

Now that I fight
With might and main
The Danish troops
I'll lead to fame
Now I survey the lands
Where I may stride
The English soil
I'm a King of Danish pride
You have plundered the whole Isle of Man
To become a greater king
And you murdered guiltless families
In the massacre of all Danish men
Aethelred. Oh Aethelred
It's my will to fight and see you dead
My troops are Viking warriors
And we sail the river Themse
Now that I fight
With might and main
The Danish troops
I'll lead to fame
Now I survey the lands
Where I may stride
The English soil
I'm a King of Danish pride
Forked Beard my father
I have sailed the way you led
To England on my Dragons
And I avenged all the dead
In Ashington, it was Ironside
I slayed his troops it served him right
Father, we took the lands
And we sailed the river Themse
Now that I rule
With might and main
The Danish kingdom
I lead to fame
Now that I own the lands
Where I may stride
The English soil

Ride ride
Let the power take you way into the night
We were born to die
Ride ride
We were raised to lead the ordinary life
What a kind of life
Bad to the bone we ride a
nightmare through your dreams
Can't you feel the surge for
freedom forget eternity
The good die young we'll burn but never fade away
There is a lust for destruction
don't dream your life away
Hear the voices on the wind
Start the engines the ride begins
Evil ride on
Thundering down the highway
Born a rebel till the end
Born a rebel till the end
Spewn outa hell we'll dance around your open grave
No more broekn promises nothing left to save
We all die young with demons riding on our back
There is no golden paradise eternity is black
And when the end will come my friend
There is nothing to complain
I choose this life I took it all
I'll be the only one to blame
But I shall still ride on the wind forevermore
Within the storm you'll hear my voice
I'll be the dust along road that you ride
It was my life it was my choice
Born a rebel let the spirit never die
Don't take their answers raise your hand
Born a free man don't believe in all their lies
Born a rebel till the end

On the blackened eve of destruction
A king arises with the promise of light
But the Jarls who held him high
Were soon to see that they followed a lie
Wise magicians and healing women
Put to the stake by royal hands
Baptized they would not be
And so in flames their life did end
Odin thy face
It fades in the blood
The heathen oaks burned
It's the end of a god
Blood rains from the sky
Love is just a christian lullaby
I can't believe I'd rather die
Blood rains from the sky
Preaching love while tortured victims cry
I won't believe I'd rather die
Bondes who would not dip in the water
At the Althing he had put them dead
A royal smile a lie on the lips
Believe in Christ or drink burning lead
Raud a mighty Jarl on the isle
He was taken at night and tried to a stake
His house on flames
Yet he would not fold his hands
Condemned to death
He had to swallow a snake
Odin thy face
It fades in the blood
The heathen oaks burned
It's the end of a god
Blood rains from the sky
Love is just a christian lullaby
I can't believe I'd rather die
Blood rains from the sky
Preaching love while tortured victims cry

Strong he was and great in fame
People came to hail his name
Once again they travel wide
To walk a last time by his side
Germania she still is free
She owes it to his victories
The Roman Varus he did beat
Germanicus he saw retreat
Gone he is gone
All that lives comes to end
So now just Rest in Peace
Gone he is gone
A poison you can't defend
So now just Rest in Peace
A people strong to rule their land
United under his own hand
But some are here who cry today
Bus lost belief along the way
Adgandaster the Chatti lord
He fed him poison 'cause he feared the sword
A deed by traitor done

The time has come we will send
Your legions doomed to meet their end
There's no way out, nowhere to run
Our triumph blossoms in the sun
The ground turned red, by Roman blood
Your leaders died by their own sword
A warning for all time
Don't set your flag on our land, we'll never kneel
Defeated by barbarian tribes, now does it feel
Your pried and joy lie shattered at our feet
At Teutoburg ground - Vae Victis
- Where empires bleed
See me now, first of my tribe
As destiny is on my side
Fight for freedom, Cherusci rise
Gaze right into your enemies' eyes
We built a wall to hold them back
The Romans face our last attack
Here where it shall end
At Teutoburg grounds
Sacrificed in our holy groves
Remains preserved in itme
Your empire bleeds
At Teutoburg grounds

Now what I do find
Is not what I had in mind
A prosperous fate I don't see
And that is angering me
My people live like a slave
My father careful not brave
To Rome taxes we pay
Starve in the winter we may
Veleda once she said
Just otherwise I do remember I see
To her I'll ride to the Bructeri
And the Seeress shall answer me
Explain my fate to me
High above the Seeress tower
Floating on the wings of a dream
Take my hand oh Veleda hold me
Nothing is as it seemed
A prosperous fate means not Rome
There is a deed to be done
There is a battle of fight
A people left to unite
I must choose where I stand
To whom I lend my hand
It seems like treason to me
But we need to be free
Explain my fate for me
Freyr rules in ecstasy
My fate now I clearly see
At the Allthing Veleda speak for me

The legions are marching
Roman Rules - Roman Lords
Roman taxes - Roman swords
Free Men - No more
Subdued - Roman Law
I see the cattle taken
With the winter at hand
Just to feed the soldiers
That rule the land
Forts standing strong
All the trees are gone
Heads bow to fate
And deep inside - I breed hate
Across Thenus up Lupia we rode
Full of joy to return home
I can't wait
Looking for a prosperous fate
I see warriors without pride
Women stealing out of sight
Blunt and rusty is the blade
Just numb eyes breeding hate
No more children on the street
Just a dog barks in retreat
I see not a prosperous fate
Just numb eyes breeding hate
Young men - Taken slaves
To serve - Roman grace
Women raped - As pleased
To serve - Soldier's need
I see Segestes smiling
As a friend of Rome
I see his riches growing
And his work well done
I am a Roman knight
Should be a friend of Rome
What I've seen of late

Oh come dear Arminius eat with us, recline
There is turmoil in your homeland and your troubles
I'll make mine
Segemir, your father, struggles for the upper hand
But Segestes, your uncle, also tries to win the land
Augustus I am
Ruler of the world
Imperator
Ruler of the world
Prince of the Cherusker, Hero on Pannonia
Raised in Rome your people you rule
Prince of the Cherusker of Germania Magna
With my help and under my smile you'll rule
Pannonia's decided just a year to final peace
So take your Ala home from the army you're released
Germania Magna win for Rome and I will aid

Like ghosts arising
From my childhood memory
I see the horned one
Initiation just for me
I see them dancing
Around a fire black and lean
Remember jumping
Over the fire to get clean
More and more I feel the memories rise
Like the dusk awaiting dawn
I have been too long
Serving foreign masters fighting faw away from home
Like the dusk awaiting dawn
I feel the urge so strong
To stroll and rest under the tall trees of my home
Tall and mighty
The Seeress stood in front of me
She shook in blind trance
And her wild herbs set me free
I saw the leader
Descending from Walhalla's gate
Leading his people

Chatti- Bructeri and Marsi have come
To meet secretly with Segimer's son
Cherusci, Angrivarii, German tribes to strong
To fight all united together as one
Brothers, raise your swords
The tribes all united
United as one
The force we could muster
The deeds to be done
The tribes all united
United as one
With an iron fist and a sword in hand
To crush the power of Rome
Welcome Segestes, ally to Rome
I took your daughter for a wife so please feel at home
I dine with Varus, know what's on his mind
Germania as a province, oh you cannot be so blind

Hear the sizzling from a serpent's tongue
They won't believe you so in vain you come
To warn the Romans of an ambush you must
Too blind they are me Arminius they trust
Segestes
Don't you know there's a deed to be done?
Fate is sealed, we will fight, not run
Let's speak through javelins, spathas, and shields
Wait in the brushwood never to yield
We are sworn to make it an end
Segestes
Don't you know there's a deed to be done?
Fate is sealed, we will fight, not run
Don't you see the warning
Written on the walls
Released, the ghost of freedom
Let repression take its toll
A voice that stirs within us
Never to be choked again
The ghost of freedom
We raid their towers on our lands at night
Retrieve the powers back on our side
You say we are lost, but I say let them come
Don't you know there's a deed to be done?
Fate is sealed, we will fight, not run
Let them come
Welcome to our forest
Our holy groves
It's time to show true colors
Feel the oaks reach for your soul
The breath of our Gods on the wind
The holy earth beneath your feet
The ghost of freedom
It's time to let all hell break loose

The legions are marching
Pannonia burns
On the edge of the battle
We wait and I learn
The cruel art of warfare
To wait till it's right
To jump our horses
The battle to decide
500 Barbarians I rule
Ala Germanica
Into battle ride
For glory and for victory
Side by side
Ala Germanica
Arminius lead us on
Defeating Pannonia
In the name of Rome
The thick of the battle
Like the edge of a blade
Receive now my orders
I must no longer wait
We ride under screams
A maelstrom from hell
to kill where we hit

Through mud and through rain our legions drag on
They fall on us like demons, they hit and they run
Attack out of darkness, spreading death and despair
They cut through our rows, an ambush beware
Varus - look what you've done
No way to turn back now
no chance to head on
Trapped - in swamp and in rain
Like phantoms they rise
Leaving corpses and pain
Oh Varus see your forces are bleeding
No escape from the Teutonic Wrath
Oh Varus see your pride was misleading
In the storm and the everlasting rain
No escape from the Teutonic Wrath
Leave the civilians from our baggage to their fate
Get out of this trap before it's too late
There is nowhere to run, we just can't make a stand

These evil creatures must
According to the Nornes
Be dealt with now and quick handed
So under Odin's guide
Angrboda seek at night
And leave her bound and undefended
Hel become the queen
In Nilfheim receive esteem
By those who die
Without honour in their lives
Rotten as you are
Away with you away so far
Hel you nourish on
Those dead and gone
Extinguish the Evil, to save our lives
The world will come down if
Loki's breed survives
Extinguish the Evil
And Angraboda his wife
The world will come down if
Loki's breed survives
Jormungard we throw
Into the deepest sea
Sinking down to live or die
May the waters hide
Her till Ragnarök
And keep her out of our eye
Fenris look at me
A wolf like I've never seen
I've always liked your kind
Looks like you are first in line
Can't send you away
In Asgard's forest hunt for prey
So I Odin speak

Like all the years before
Roman legions cross our land
Like all the years before
They feed their soldiers off our hand
Varus Varus
New governor of Germania
Sworn to force Roman law
Upon a people free so far
Oh Varus, a friend of mine you are
Oh Varus, but this has gone too far
I will not see my people live as slaves
I will not
Oh Varus, you don't know who we are
Not in all those years before
Was the rule enforced with an iron fist
Never in those years before
Were we tread upon until the ground we kissed
Varus Varus
Bitter enemies you've made of friends
Sworn to a full revenge

My father died when I was ten years old
Many kings looked at my lands
Thriving to get a hold
But I was old enough to hold a sword
And strong enough to fight
King Gandalf lost his life.
Eystein's sons in cold earth they lie
Now I am a mighty king
Broad lands I own
Time has come to find a wife
So lonely in my throne
Gyda of Hardanger greater beauty eyes
Will never see
My men you go and bade her greetings
Ask her to marry me
Go and tell king Harald
I will not marry him
Until he has subdued the whole of Norway
For only than can he be called a great king
I make the solemn vow that never shall I clip or comb my hair
Until I have subdued the whole of Norway
Or if not have died in the attempt
In Orkedalen king Gryting was beat
On his knees he prayed to be my man
Eight battles I fought with the host
I lead
But now Drontheim is in my hand
Arnvid and Audbjorn I met them on the waves
Of their dragons there were many around
But I was mad with anger
My bloodlust ablaze
And so I sent their ships
To the ground
I'm standing proud and tall
Harald Halfager on your knees you fall
United in my hand
The king of Norway my fatherland
Bow to the king of Norway's throne
United the crown in his alone
Now I will comb my hair
A firm hand to lead the country on
United to hold on hold and strong
A king so young and fair
I am the king and my word is the law
Bow your head or you'll repent
Eric the Red your freedom's no more
Lay down your sword or leave my land
Good men leave or good man die
But the king stands proud and tall
Grayskin you'll rule, son of mine
Cause I can hear the Valkyrs call
I'm standing proud and tall
Harald Harfager on your knees you fall
Bow to the king of Norway's throne
United the crown in his alone
Now I will comb my hair
A firm hand to lead the country on
United to hold on hold and strong
A king so young and fair
[Speech]
Fresh from the battle field came in
Dripping with blood the Norsemen's king
With battered shield and blood smeared sword
Slits one beside the shores of Stord
With armour crushed and gashed sits he
A grim and gastly sight to see
And round about in sorrow stand
The warriors of this gallant band
In Odin's hall an empty place
Stands for a king of Yngves race
Go my Valkyries Odin said
Go forth my angels of the dead
Gondul and Skogul to the plain
Drenched with the battles bloody rain
And to the dying Harald tell

As I sit here
I see thee as we were young
Like brothers, best friends
We'd see it through whatever come
Worn and tired I am
Feel the weight of all those years
The weight of years
Wish you could be with me now
Wish you could be with me now
But this is just a Requiem
But this is just a Requiem
But this is just a Requiem
For the Fallen
For the Fallen
For the Fallen
A Requiem for the Fallen
Oh that battle
All the freedom, glory and gold
I never saw them
But you died young and I live old
Wouldn't you have liked to live
To see your children die in the wars to come
Would you not have liked to live
To see your sacrifice undone
But this is just a Requiem
But this is just a Requiem
But this is just a Requiem
For the Fallen
For the Fallen
For the Fallen
A Requiem for the Fallen
A Requiem for the Fallen

Snake eyed warriors spot the prey
Wild horses race where dragons lay
Arrows dense and deadly fall
Valkyrias ride as death will call
We turn the boat for shelter now
Arrows knocking on her bough
Wave after wave shot after shot
Stay in shelter save your blood
Save your blood
to grant a taste of steel
My Petschenegan friends
Are you hungry for blood
Well i shall feed you steel
Ground your face in the mud
A taste of taste of steel
Do you move for the kill
Well i shall feed you steel
Feel the battle's thrill
A taste of taste of steel
Dismounted now with battle cry
Petschenegans time to die
Face to face and steel to steel
How does the norsemen's anger feel
Cut and slice for blood and gore
You want my life what is the score
Here i stand you cowards come
Or trust your heels the living run
Trust your heels
to fight another day

Deep down in your mind where there's evil to find
I dwell in the shade of the sun
You know me I rise when the smiler have all gone
I rule all the pain and madness will rain
From dark clouds hiding the day
No way out there;s black in a world of decay
Meet your demon take a dip in the night
These doors are open there is evil in sight
Meet your demon take a sip of his breath
You look at your own face you look at your death
Come on meet your demon
Shake his hand say hi
Come on meet your demon
Be a nice boy don't say good bye
Meet your demon
Meet your demon
Depression it brings as I open my wings
A touch on the shores deep within
All is mine the fear and the deed and the sin
Just come with me take a look and you'll see
All the emptiness deep in your soul
Here I rule there's a universe you've never known
Meet your demon come on take your pill
You stare at the ceiling he will find you still
Meet your demon you can not run away

I've been drunken with horror death can't
frighten me
I 've long forgotten what the feeling of fear
might be
Life's but a shadow meaning nothing at all
But I feel alive again now that I stand with my
back against the wall
[Bridge:]
My back against the wall
[Ref.:]
Calling all to arms
There is no way to escape
Fate has turned to black
At least I'll die with harness on my back
All of my yesterdays have led me this way
Like a fool I believed what the tongues of evil did say
In my veins there is life again now that I must fall
This is my destiny here is my end with my

Hail Hail Hail Macbeth
[Macbeth:]
Macdonwald I 'II take your head and hold it to the sky
Brothers look down in the valley
The traitors are strong their numbers are great
here we are we won't surrender
Fight for glory or meet our fate
Macbeth traitor know my name
I will take your head in shame
I kill those who do betray
Come now come and make my day
[Ref.:]
For my King and for Scotland into battle I ride
Disdaining Fortune
Brothers march at my side
King Duncan you rule all hail to thy name
Disdaining fortune
For Scotland's fame
Into battle anger in my brain
I fight like a madman insane
Like a lion feasting on the prey
I will just take your life away
I bathe in your reeking wounds
I slay bloody life too soon
I drink blood of enemies
I kill in perfect harmony
[The Witches:]
The weird sisters hand in hand,
Posters of the sea and land,
Thus do go about, about,
Thrice to thine, and thrice to mine,
And thrice again to make up nine.

Drifting in sleepless nightmares
Haunted by poisoned dreams
Washing your hands in the water
But the hands will never be clean
Now you pay the price
Your dreams drenched in blood
Now you realize
You have gone too far
[Ref.:]
Claws of madness
Holding your brain as they take you away
to the other
Side of sorrow
Where you pay what you owe
Claws of madness
Never ending pain drives you insane
you want to
Leave this world now
Death is kind you will find
Smile in the face of evil
Watching your life go by
Washing your hands in the water
God knows how you try
Whispers in your mind
Voices from far away
Can you hear them calling
Names from far away
[Narrator:]
After the suicide of his wife and companion in treason Macbeth must understand that Macduff has finally succeeded and put together an army large in numbers and determined to overthrow the tyrant - to purify the Scottish crown from the blood that was shed for it... his men flee from him... leaving him alone with his anger... his doubts and his sorrow...
[Macbeth:]

He came from the land of Asaland
The ruler of Asgard
From the land of ice and snow
He conquered all of Saxland
And the giants of Jotunheim
The ravens fly where he'll go
A wise and travelled warrior, a cunning enemy
Taking what we sacrifice
Across the rainbow bridge
Giving strength in battle, giving victory
Odin's chosen heroes
May cross the rainbow bridge
Hear the thunder
The sky is cracks
See the rainbow bridge
There's no turning back
Valkyrs riding a bloody trail
Heroes cross to Asgard, never fail
To Odin we call – in his name we will fight
Riding on dragons through the waves
And the gods on our side
To Odin we call – in his name we will fight
Summon the valkyrs in the sky
On the wings of death we ride
The power of the Skalds
And the magic of the runes
He taught to us who sacrifice
By the cold light of the moon
The father of the Ynglinga
The house of our kings
The battle sound amuses him
And battle we shall bring
Mad as wild dogs
Strong as the bear
I bite my shield in anger
Life I never spare
A deadly blow, as cold as ice
The power of the berserk, take your life
To Odin we call – in his name we will fight
Riding on dragons through the waves
And the gods on our side
To Odin we call – in his name we will fight
Summon the valkyrs in the sky
On the wings of death we ride
Hear the thunder
The sky is cracks
See the rainbow bridge
There's no turning back
Valkyrs riding a bloody trail
Heroes cross to Asgard, never fail
To Odin we call – in his name we will fight
Riding on dragons through the waves
And the gods on our side
To Odin we call – in his name we will fight
Summon the valkyrs in the sky
On the wings of death we ride

Odin I am the son of Bor
The Norns sung my fare
Ravens beside me evermore
In a world to be made
But you who are you
The Giants of Ice
Ymir you think you rule
Ten thousands won't suffice
It's a war of thousand years
Between courage and your fears
It's a war an endless fight
Between darkness and light
It's a war of thousand years
There is life and endless tears
It's war where giants fall
Gods shall stand tall
Odin I am standing strong
Amidst bloodshed's agony
Vili and Ve hold our long
Oh my brothers next to me
Where is Ymir he must die
Then his breed will be gone
Fall upon him hear his cry

Across the rivers and the sea
Here is what you want and need
Swords from Franconia
Their blades shining like a star
We search the furs that you hold
We'll pay fairly as i told
Coming peaceful for the trade
So come close don't be afraid
But you did not come for trade
Faces grim you draw your blades
You might have picked your victims wrong
Northern warriors bold and strong
Cause norsemen we are
From the land of ice so far
If you choose to pick a fight
The price might well be your life
Ulfberth Ulfberth - sword of a master
Whisteling death as i swing thee faster
Ulfberth Ulfberth - spin like a wheel
Dealing death - steel you feel
So my Ulfberth he starts
To come alive like a beating heart
Moving vivid in my hand
A dance of death certain end
Springing lightly from throat to throat
A kiss of steel where once was hope
Digging deep a smile in red
Shattered words on lips of death
Have i told you not before
The price is high you know the score
On the ground your comrades lie

Our lives have turned sad
The harvest again was bad
And it's growing worse hungry children cry
They pray to a new god while their people die
But fortune does not grow from a lie
What is our hope when kings betray
Sigurd was too strong but in ambush they lay
His brother helped and he was paid in gold
Now Sigurd lies dead bloodless and cold
Treason dwells in our king
He lies betrays and kills at night
What fortune can it bring?
Treason walks in this land
The Gravskin murders smile on his face
But blood is on his hands
King Tryggve was strong
And Erik's sons feared him well
So in the dark of the night
He was stabbed and fell
And Sigurd's son they tried to buy
But he remembered his father and saw the lie
Treason dwells in our king
He lies betrays and kills at night
What fortune can it bring?
Treason walks in this land
The Gravskin murders smile on his face

The son of Odin the Godfather
And Jord the Earthmother
Was an unruly child
Furious and wild
Too strong to be tamed
And yet too young to be sane
Oh my son spoke Odin until you grow of age
To control your temper and your rage
You must live with the keepers of the lightning
Who are used to power so frightening
Oh father look at me what I've become
My feet are lightning I am your son
My voice thunder under brooding skies
My hammer cracks skulls as giants die
Oh Odin it's been long but I've come home
My feet never touch Bifrost for I tread too strong
I've come to claim my seat now in Gladsheim
Bilskirnir shall be my palace the home of mine
Mjölnir my hammer I hold it strong
Defender of Asgard where I belong
On my chariot the wildest storms I'll ride
As thunder speaks and lightning strikes and
Mjölnir hits I'll rule the night
Thor - Giants hide the fear
When they feel thy hammer near
Falling from the sky
Skulls cracked die
Thor - Keep chaos hard at bay
As with broken skulls they lay
Their life at your feet
Death doth greet
Father I'm not afraid to meet my fate
On Ragnarök the final stand dues to be paid
Father by your side I'll proudly die
On Ragnarök chaos prevails gods shall die
Father Magni and Modi shall overlive
My pride my sons live to give
After death father there's life to come

Ragnar the Dragon Slayer, king of sea and land
When people spot your sail they fear the sword that's
in your hand
I was born your son and with my brothers I sailed out
To feed the ravens, steal the gold where battle rages
loud
You had to go to England with the few men you could
gain
And outnumbered ten to one your heroes they were slain
You searched for death in battle but the falling light
of day
Saw you as a prisoner in chains they dragged you away
In a pit of snakes
By vermin's breath
Die you lost your life
No honour in such a death
The sons of the dragon slayer
All for one we stand
We'll cut the blood eagle
And your life shall soak the land
The sons of the dragon slayer
King Ella you'll repent
I'll cut the blood eagle
And your life shall soak your land
Ivar my brother king of London let me know
He birbed the english nobles so king Ella stands alone
Now's the time to gather men to play the bloody game
Take their lives and spill their blood to wash away the
shame
Long boats touch the sand. Northern warriors steel in
hand
The enemy is weak, no way to defend
Running through the lines, falling on a fearing prey
Rognar's sons deal hard. And in the end they win the
In a lake of blood
King Ella's death
Die hard die slowly die
The blood eagle drinks your breath
The sons of the dragon slayer
All for one we stand
We'll cut the blood eagle
And your life shall soak the land
The sons of the dragon slayer
King Ella you'll repent
I'll cut the blood eagle

From the lands of sweden they came
862 was the year
Sailing under the flag
Of Rurik spreading fear
Nowgorod was their stronghold called
The lands around they subdue
Blonde warriors cunning
Mighty and true
The rivers they rule
Warriors to the core
The rus they are called
Standing proud and tall
Here their word is the law
The rus they are called
Swjatoslav their present king
His names is like thunder on the plain
He conquered the bulgars
And chasars by sword and flame
They rule the rivers to Miklagard
And to pass we must pay
A mighty kingdom

We ride all alone from the battlefield
The rebels beaten they had to yield
Banquo and I we silently ride
Brothers in arms side by side
There s a fog which falls on the weary soul
It engulfs our souls as we head for home
The lands we pass we ve never seen
Clad in a twilight like a dream
Out of the shade three women rise
Appear in features that please the eye
How can such grace walk the earth
Can it be of human birth
Their eyes glowing with unearthly light
Shining like diamonds in the falling night
They hail our names as we greet
Their voices sound like music sweet
[Bridge:]
A Prophecy for great ambitions
A promise weaved in gold
Evil speaks a pleasant language
The Evil speak a pleasant language
A Prophecy is told
[Ref.:]
Hail Hail Hail Macbeth
Thane of Claims and Cawdor
and Master of death
All Hail Macbeth we greet thee with laughter
Hail Macbeth thou shalt be king hereafter
We bid them stay as they did turn
More about our fate to learn
Too sweet did their visions sound
To ambitious men for glory bound
They turned to Banquo and hailed his name
Revealing to him the greatest fame
My brother listened pleased and well
To the promises they had to tell
[Ref.:]
Hail Banquo hail to thee
Lesser than Macbeth yet greater thou It be
Father of a line of kings to come
Hail to Banquo the chosen one
[Narrator:]
Macbeth the Thane of Glamis has won a great victory,
beating the rebels in a fierce battle he did a great service to his King
and his country As King Duncan gains knowledge of this he decides to reward
the most noble deeds of his greatest warrior.
He bestons the Thanehood of Cawdor on Macbeth
To express his gratitude even further Duncans decides to visit Macbeth and to celebrate
the victory together with its honourable protagonist.
Naught does the king know about the witches prophecies
and the ambitions of the Thane of Glamis and Cawdor Naught does he fear

My fears in Banqou stick deep
Haunt my sleep
He knows the sisters' prophecy
His smiles I can read
For his breed I've sold my soul
A fruitless crown can it be all
Fate will have to bow her head
Banquo my friend soon you'll be dead
Muderers will do the crime
I've paid them well to cut you fine
I'll never have to look at you
Banquo my friend your life is through
[Bridge:]
I - I've walked deep in the blood
Return I can not
No I'll have to carry on
To be safe with what I've done
[Ref.:]
The Dead arise from their grave
To assail what we thought safe
The Dead arise outta hell
To the hero that fell
What is this I look upon
should be dead and gone
How can I believe my eyes
Is it a lie
Banquo how can it be you
You lie in the blood that's what you do
I see mortal gashes on your head
How can you smile you should be dead
What man dare I will dare
A thousand warriors or the Russian bear
But pale cheeks of immortality
How can I fight how can I fight against thee
[Bridge:]
Oh no - Let the earth hide you away
In hell you should stay
No don't you reach for my crown
I shall never take it down
[Narrator:]
Shaken by the ghastly apparition of the slain Banquo Macbeth fears even stronger
now for the security of what he has stolen by murder and treason and defends
by such means. Like a blind stalker in the night he is drawn back to the lair

Rumours know that rebellion will break out
Bonnie Prince Charles is in the highlands to claim his
Crown no doubt
He raised his Standart at Glenfinnen calling to our pride
The Jacobites are gathering I'll be at their side
Armed and ready stand
My rights I must defend
Steel is in my hand
The clan's are marching `gainst the law
Bagpipers play the tunes of war
Death or glory I will find
Rebellion on my mind
The town of Edinburgh fell soon in our hands

Come Skald sit thee with us
and tell us of the past
The deeds of viking warriors
in your songs they'll ever last
We long to hear of Hakon,
the Earl of Norway's shores
Of how he killed the Grayskin
and stood the Jomsburg force
He was born the son of Sigurd,
his father stabbed by royal hands
He escaped and turned a viking,
his fame spread across the lands
And on the day he faced the Grayskin,
anger washed just like a burning flood
Hakon the maker of widows taking lives
as his blade drinks blood
The fish return now into the fjord,
the harvest rich Hakon we hail thy sword
Raising temples where a church did stand.
Odin smiles to praise the land
Sword in the storm, the rock in the battle
Hakon you stand and be Odin thy guide
Strong be thy arm, oh sword in the storm
Thor grant you strength to defend what is right
And when the vikings of the Jomsburg
set their sails against our shores
Strong in numbers famous heroes,
Hakon you fought them to the core
And in the middle of the bloodshed,
standing strong I saw your hands reach for the sky
Calling for help in the turmoil,
Odin took your son as a sacrifice
The fish return now into the fjord,
the harvest rich Hakon we hail thy sword
Raising temples where a church did stand.
Odin smiles to praise the land
Sword in the storm, the rock in the battle
Hakon you stand and be Odin thy guide
Strong be thy arm, oh sword in the storm
Thor grant you strength to defend what is right
But in the end of people asked
for the reign of a christian king
Betraying Hakon they soon forgot
the good his rule did bring
In his sleep, killed by a thrall
a hero's bitter end
Trygve's son was to succeed

I know myself hanging there
For nice icy nights
Facing the endless darkness around me
Wounded by my own spear
On the wind cold tree
I am Odin - Hallowed by my own rite
A tree unknown the roots be sprouts
Lets my life slowly fade
From a bough of Yggdrasil I hung
Committed to my fate
Delivered to the fright
Of endless ice and night
I had to gaze into the misty world
Of Niflheim - the dire northern frost empire
In my self chosen solitude
Runes you will reveal
In the dust of ancient times
Remember my sacrifice
When I hung for these nine nights
Runes they were concealed
In the dust of ancient times
I died to be reborn
When I suffered these nine nights
When I begun to grow
Evanescent by pain
I sunk from the tree with a sigh
The knowledge of the dead I learnt
Cause only cruelty can forge

I have been on viking cruises, taking what they
wouldn't give
Sacrifice to Njord the master of the waves on which I
live
Now I found a king to follow, now I serve the Forked
Beard
Sven the son of Harald Bluetooth, King of Denmark knows
and feared
To England – our dragons had to ride
To help the beaten Aethelred – the Picts we must fight
And many – a hero died that day
Draged with bloodlust and I cut their lives away
And so we beat them on a field of gore and bone
But there is a price to pay, the english should have
known
Aethelred, oh Aethelred – your kingdom now is gone
The king of Denmark takes your crows, oh you should
have known
The northern sea he rules, Denmark and England he
unites
The norsemen rule the waves and king Sven holds all the
might
The Forked Beard he rules and like the devil we will
fight
We rule the waves. Fear the vikings pride
Hey, hey – we are ruling the waves...
We burn the churches and the cross
The serpents of the crucified, their lived are at a
loss
Sven prays to Odin and to Thor
The power of the ancient gods who dwelt here long
before
And so we hunt those who have burnt the oak trees down
The heathen roots run deep the ancient gods are still
around
Crucified, oh crucified, you should have known
Your time has not yet come and so we burn your houses
down
The northern sea he rules, Denmark and England he
unites
The norsemen rule the waves and king Sven holds all the
might
The Forked Beard he rules and like the devil we will
fight
We rule the waves. Fear the vikings pride

Macduff
Who are you
Once you were loyal
Once you were true
Run to England
To stand against me
I will burn your castle
I will slay, your family
How can I be loyal
To a murderer that stole the crown
How can I be loyal
To a tvrant
That takes my country down
[Ref:]
We'll take revenge for all the lives you stole -
Macbeth
The sins you did in the end you'll fall -
Macbeth
We'll take revenge and put you down, in the
end we'll seize the crown
I'll take revenge for all the lives you stole -
Macbeth
Macduff
Look and see
Here are the bloody corpses
of your family
Burried dead
In a nameless grave
My lust for blood
Will make me safe
I've cried a thousand tears
In the shadows of the lonely night
As the tears run dry
You tyrant
I know that I must fight
[Gentlewoman:] Lo you, here she comes. This is her very guise, and, upon my life, fast asleep. Observe her. Stand close.
[Doctor:] You see her eyes are open.
[Gentlewoman:] Ay, but their sense are shut.
[Doctor:] What is it she does now? Look how she rubs her hands.
[Gentlewoman:] It is an accustomed action with her, to seem thus washing her hands. I have known her continue in this a quarter of an hour.
[Lady Macbeth:] Yet here's a spot. Out, damned spot; out, I say. Hell is murky. Fie, my lord, fie, a soldier and afeard? What need we fear who knows it when none can call our power to account? Yet who would have thought the old man to have had so much blood in him? ... Macduff the Thane of Fife had a wife. Where is she now? What, will these hands ne'er be clean? No more o' that, my lord, no more o' that. No more
[Doctor:] What a sigh is there! The heart is sorely charged.
[Gentlewoman:] I would not have such a heart in my bosom for the dignity of the whole body.

Ragnhild the daughter of Sigurd Hjort
Her father murdered and she was taken
Far away across the fjord, a slave to be her fate
forsaken
Halfdan the black the king of Agder
He heard about her beauty and her sadness in life
Rescue the lady make her a queen, set free a slave,
gain a wife
There's greatness and grace for the northern race
A strong hand to come, a king for the throne
He shall lead Norway on
Ragnhild's dream. A thorn in her hand grows a tre so
high
Ragnhild's dream. Rooted in blood but the branches
reach for the sky
A strong han to come, reach for the sun in the sky
Their son is born a child of beauty
Crows a young man strong and fair
Harald Harfarger, Halfdan's son
Looking for dangers few man dare
King Halfdan he died at the age of forty
Leaving his people to Odin he rode
Harald must rule the kingdom of Agder
Praying to Thor, fate will unfold
There's greatness and grace for the northern race
A strong hand to come, a king for the throne
He shall lead Norway on
Ragnhild's dream. A thorn in her hand grows a tre so
high
Ragnhild's dream. Rooted in blood but the branches

I see them marching
On the quaking battleground
Pale-faced fallen braves
Arriving in with mighty sound
In line with the Asir battled
And prepared to fight
The one and final battle
To be fought on Odin's side
After years of struggle
Fimbulwinter had arrived
To herald the downfall
And the end of all times
On the lands of Wigrid
Hel's entourage to defy
The Einherjars from Valhall
All predestined here to die
Heimdall blows his mighty horn
A warning for the Gods
Odin rides to Mimir's well
To seek advice, at once
All the Asir and the fallen
Are storming against Hel's force
Led by Odin in his armor
With a helm of gold and horse
And when Freyr falls
By the blow of the flaming sword
Ragnarök - Fire's hurling round the earth
Ragnarök - Swallowing the whole wide world
Ragnarök - The prediction is fulfilled
Ragnarök - Many Gods have been killed
The hellhound Garm and Tyr
They both die in their raging fight
Thor, he beats the Midgard snake
Just to perish close aside
Vidar lost his father Odin
Now he seeks out for revenge
Devourer Fenris has to yield
Torn apart by Vidar's hands
Heimdall - Loki, both lie slain

There's a beating of wings
On the cold night air
And the wind seems to moan in despair
It's a summoning spell
And it's calling thy name
You follow to from where it came
Listen to the voices there's evil in disguise
You fall in the blackness of her eyes
Follow the evil
A spell has been cast
In the vaults of the Queen of Spades
Fall for seduction
Her beauty will last
In the vaults of the Queen of Spades
Queen of Spades
Princess of the dark
Queen of Spades
Evil eyes under blood red skies
Become a devil's child
As you step in your dream
She waits with a smile
There is nothing obscene
There's a light in the dark
And beauty in hate
So you fell for the Queen of Spades
There's no way to return
She rules a world of her own

When Skoll and Hati are on their prowl
To devour the sun and the moon
When all the stars will fall from the sky
To let the earth shake in its doom
Judgement day has come
For all the life that walks the sun
When Fenris is breaking
Away from his chains
Spitting his fire upon the ground
The Midgard snake ashore
Is flooding the earth
With poison emblazing
Sea and clime
Made from the nails of finger and toe
Of the dead, Naglfar sets afloat
Summoned by the turmoil and riot around

Shadows hide the battlefield as daylight fades away
The ghosts of fallen angels are picking up the prey
The spirit of the heroes that once fought for the light
Is crushed down on the blood soaked earth
now where is all their pride
You - you are the last man standing tall
Fighting for the sacred grale but knowing you will fall
Now - that there is nowhere you can hide
Standing strong until the end your fate it will decide
Stand alone
You fight alone
You die alone
You will die
Rise
The power of evil
Power of evil
Ancient and old
Rise
The gods of destruction
Gods of all evil
Blood turns to stone
You're waiting on a barren hill to watch the enemy
Closing up upon the last man standing free
Armies of the darkness so numerous and cruel
You know your time is over and the devils take the rule
You - the anger rising in your mind
Agony's forgotten as you march against their lines
No - you will never bow your head
Sacrifice your life you know that eve will see you dead
[Narration:]
There was a mighty clash as his sword spoke in thunder
Dividing the waves of his enemies,
Their bodies falling in thousands from his strokes.
With every cut his anger grows as he
stands on piles of the slain
Hell itself seems to rise spewing out
countless creatures that seem to mock
life itself so
But the last man is still standing
strong on the edge time clad
In his in his fierce anger and the battle

Many a month on the rivers
Of these foreign lands
All the dangers we've mastered
Under Odin's hand
But as the Dnepr widens
I can feel the breeze from the sea
And the seagull's laughter
Sounds like home to me
A song of home. And to be free
[Chorus:]
Oh put our backs
To the wind once more
Set the sails for a distant shore
On the waves of the black sea ride
Brothers in arms side by side
Put our dragons on the open sea
Where a Norseman may feel free
Wake the spirit in every man
Put our backs to the wind again
And we are sailing southbound
Towards the city of stone
Many tales we have heard
Of it's wonders unknown
After weeks of sailing
Its towers
in the sun dusk appear
And we glaze at its wonders
Up to the city we steer
In awe we watch
Its walls draw near

Built of metal
Of gleaming steel
Mighty and invincible
And fear I never feel
Screaming warcries
Like an iron bird of prey
Hungry for the power
Choosing our way
I was brought up by the wolves no way I'm turning back
There's a world against us ready for attack
I've been a fighter all my life no way I'm giving in
Call me a devil's child then I'll live in sin
And still we march and never fall
We're standing proud we're standing fall
We're holding on
One for all
And there are few I can recall
Who rise above the crowd so tall
We're holding on
One for all
Angry and wild
Hearts burning deep within
Never turn the back on you
You'll stab the knife right in
Raging through the town
Forever free
Born to be a rebel
Born to be your enemy
The harder that you come the harder I shall be
I'll never trust in you I am your enemy
There's no way to stop me I'm just like a stallion
This is what I live this is my own rebellion
And the world is never with us
So we must hold on alone
But heroes never falter
And the lonely one is strong
And we got our friends to count on
Through the hard times and the rain
So we'll never play your rules
