-Verse 1- For many days now, I have lead my warriors in fight after fight Desecrate the wicked, and expose them to the light Burn down the walls of agony and pain No remorse for the villain, their death shall I bring Life without battle is pain without blood Drag you through sorrow, and expose you to good My intentions are lawful but I just can?t defend Good is a virtue: worry it to the end
-Chorus- Raise the militia ? we go to war/This brand of evil ? I settle the score None shall defy us ? wrongful intent/Sardath behind us ? the power of death
-Verse 2- The Evil Keep stands alone ? a pure bastion of hate We must defend the values of a purely dwarven state The lesson learned by all inside is watch your backs A group of peasants bring you down ? prepare for the attack A mighty lord leads the charge ? his will is not his own A pawn of values that he believes ? Tempus burns his soul War is life... And the pain... It is the breath that keeps us going on Cleanse the earth of all these demons that call this keep their home
-Chorus-
-Bridge- War is what makes men of boys, women of girls, brings a nation joy And another defeat, it?s not sad to say there are mice, there are men, and that is the way God be willing this shall never cease, that humanity should sink to making peace I fear the day when battle is resolved with words
The preemptive strike had set the stage. The dwarf and his friends had war to wage War was the cause, war and chaos alone. The clash of swords was Sardath?s throne Tempus cares not whose blood is spilled, long may it keep his chalice filled Delivered with much malice
-Breakdown- War is good for merchants and war is good for kings Let the warriors battle and their tales the minstrels sing War makes friends of strangers and brothers enemies
Agony surely passes. We do as we please
-Verse 3- The enemy is driven from the keep ? They stand before us now Lined up for the trial ? Whose life will we allow? The human Sardath is judge and jury ? executioners at his side These are just our simple ways when off to war we ride
