Pouring forth like locusts upon the shores
Neither peasants nor king were duly warned
Verdicts without judgment, no criminals they
We leave them all but empty, 'cept their vertebrae

Objects of our hatred, amount to nothing more
No pity on their station, be they nobles or whores
Lands and homes are plundered well
And felled with mindless rage
Then comes the unthinkable
We break into their cage

My torture performed, their backs reformed
My torture performed, leaving corpses deformed
I quickly cut away the ribs from your spine
And ripping out your lungs
And prove the victory mine
Killing every citizen like an abattoir swine
Ah, the blood eagle, 'tis my notorious rite

Happened upon a troubadour, and spare him I did
To write of all my glory, told him: Nothing's forbid
Immoral to immortalized, my legend will live
So I'll never be forgotten, and I never forgive

Blades sketch the wings before you die
Your skin is peeled away
Excavation of your brawn, I carve latissimi
With the ease of a fine filet
Your ribs are broken out and leave a great divide
I watch your lungs inflate with the final breath of life

My torture performed, their backs reformed
My torture performed, leaving corpses deformed
My torture performed, their backs reformed
My torture performed, leaving corpses deformed
I quickly cut away the ribs from your spine
And ripping out your lungs
And prove the victory mine
Killing every citizen like an abattoir swine
Invader kills inferiors like a judgment hand divine
Warring every father's son
The family's soul consigned
Ah, the blood eagle, 'tis my notorious rite
