Curse of the King
(Maledictus Regis)
At the crossroads I stand
Tempting fate in this mystical land
Voices whisper to me
Find the heavenly secret you seek
I must answer the call
Ride the seas as they rise and they fall
Now the search is underway
For the treasure, a price you must pay
Men through ages
Chase their dreams
You won't be the last
Lost into darkness
Hear their screams
The spell has been cast
Fortune beckons me
Rays of light in the East You will see
Red sun sets to the West
On to nightfall, there’s no time to rest
Walk the path of the kings
All the hope and glory it brings
Gems and gold you foresee
With the Gods forever you will be
Men through ages
Chase their dreams
You won't be the last
Lost into darkness
Hear their screams
The spell has been cast
(Meledictus Regis
Rogate Pronobis
Rogate)
In the dark
My heart races with fear
Take in what lies ahead
Think of the tales I’ve read
One step across the gate
Alas, I’ve taken the bait
Voices whisper to me
“Behold all that you seek”
Smoke rises
engulfing me
Figures dance
Enchanting me
Lost in Eden
Or is it hell
No evading
This evil spell
In the darkness I hide
Hold the fear I feel inside
In this forsaken land
Sands of time slip away from my hand
Men have fallen
Chasing dreams
Voices whisper, hear them sing
Lost into darkness
Hear their screams
It’s the Curse of the King
Lost...
Alone I stand
(Lost to the Curse of the King)
Lost in the sand
(Lost to the Curse of the King)
Lost...
Lost chasing dreams
(Lost to the Curse of the King)
Men heed the screams
Lost to the Curse of the King
WAR III: Sacrifice
In the stillness of dawn
Beneath the rising the sun
I lay quietly and hold the gun
Bell Tower that once stood tall
Has fallen in the squall
Once immaculate church is gone
Chirping birds flutter by
They scamper in the sky
The smoke is snaking on high
As we say our last goodbye
Into the distance, over the hills
Screams are an endless sound
Death and destruction, innocence killed
Bodies lie on the ground
Fight for flag
Kill or be killed
It's a carnage of war machines
Fight for country
Destroy your enemy
Conquest by any means
Fire rains from above
Close my eyes, shudder from the sound
Barks from the hounds of hell
Rage and fury all around
We were just innocent boys
Fearless, or so we thought
Sent us to certain death
Sacrifice with no forethought
Mortars are endless
No end to madness
Corpses line the ground
Madman's tyranny
Nothing but gluttony
Lucifer has been crowned
Clouds gather up above
Close my eyes, shudder from the sound
All my hope is gone
Can’t escape, can't go on
Hold my hand, don’t let go
I don’t want to die alone
Is this the end, all that will be
Fear chills me to the bone
In the stillness of dawn
Beneath the dying the sun
Is the dream now gone?
