A Descent Into The Kingdom Of The Shades Lyrics
glory is what I cravedAs I proudly rode unaware, that soon I'd meet my fate.Onwards we marched.When the light of day light upthe field we were drawn upready to attackthe armies met with a deafening clangyelling their battlecries up to the skyThe Oracle "Most of man will falldecimated by barbarian bladeshades waits, women mourn'cause by twilight they'll be goneto the Kingdom Of The Shades"May Mars be by our sidea vang of brutal pain, I feel onto my kneesthe steel as cold as ice cruelty bit my fleshand I passed through...I stand in dark, shadows crowd the bankof the river styxHesr them moanSlowly I approach the waters dark and thicka boat is getting near for my last voyageBurning eyes of fire, ancient bonesboatman of Hades sails to the bank, the time has come take me awayCharon: "You know the price, pay me andI'll take you to the other sidethe silver coin I keep in my mouthis what I owe you.Charon: Get aboard. I'm leaving light behindHopeless eternity is now calling me.Once with honour I fought, fear I knew not, butchered my enenies lied, cities fell at my feet, forever gone(are those days of glory)The Shades:"As we touch the ground Cerberus snarls guardingthis grim place. Hades welcomes us all with a sombre, warm embrace to the Kingdom Of The Shades"
