Thunder Of War Lyrics

A thunder of war roared through the sky
As the armies ran towards each other

Bone-breaking blows of warhammers
Shields crushed, steel broke, flesh torn apart
Gut-ripping strokes of foul swords fell
Impaled by spears, blood spitting dying.

Pierced by arrows on the blood drenched fields
The penetrating stench of death

More enemy forces leapt out of the hills
Overwhelming our flanks
But then our captain rose the banner and screamed
You'll fight to the end, don't fear no defeat

And now new strength was found, the turn in the fight
As a falcon shrieked and pierced the sky above
Into amazement the enemy fell
Our flanks reformed and we fiercely charged again.

Yes, once again a furious warcry filled the sky
The glorious falcon, our victory is near.
With our captain in the frontline
Holding the banner of the falcon up high

And so we charged on to fight
With the swing of the blunt battle axes
and the reaping halberds.
The terrifying screams of our enemies,
now brutally slaughtered at will.
In the frenzy, fair young men left with shattered faces
and strong heroes' arms left dismembered.
That was the price of our victory.
