6. Sword of the Gods (7:32)
[Endyamon:]
I take to the air, fear breaks the will of denial
You look for me there, hunting the skies I am soundless
I fly to the rainbow, I conquer the sky
The hammer of death
The sword of the gods
Grant every wish of blood that calls to blood
I rise on the air
I rise on the sea
Smashing with flame your denial for me
The sword of the gods!
You look for a sign, nothing will reveal the hour
The burning of Rome was only a glimpse of my power
My armor is flame gold, I sever the sky!
The hammer of death
The sword of the gods
Grant every wish of blood that calls to blood
I rise on the air
I rise on the sea
Smashing with flame your denial for me
The sword of the gods!
Watching your children die
Your fist to the gods you cry
"Why must it be, why am I damned, forsaken"
I have always served your shrines and altars
Now I'll see you burn!
[Endyamon:]
Why must this come to pass?
Gods of the heaven's vast
Await the night you die, now!
The sword of the gods!
Rise!
Cold yet burning, calm yet so murderous
We rise like mist from the earth
As above, so it shall be below
We invoke death with one final prayer
Pain is the sign where I will find
The only shred of magic that won't be left behind
I take to the air
Fear rips the temples of power
My law is despair, a vision of flame I am blinding
My sword is the rainbow, I sever the sky
[The Sword:]
The hammer of death
The sword of the gods
I am the wish of blood that calls to blood
I rise on the air
I rise on the sea
Smashing the flames of denial for me
The sword of the gods!
[Endyamon:]
The blood of man is the blood of vengeance!
The sword of the gods!
Die!
I take to the air, fear breaks the will of denial
You look for me there, hunting the skies I am soundless
I fly to the rainbow, I conquer the sky
The hammer of death
The sword of the gods
Grant every wish of blood that calls to blood
I rise on the air
I rise on the sea
Smashing with flame your denial for me
The sword of the gods!
You look for a sign, nothing will reveal the hour
The burning of Rome was only a glimpse of my power
My armor is flame gold, I sever the sky!
The hammer of death
The sword of the gods
Grant every wish of blood that calls to blood
I rise on the air
I rise on the sea
Smashing with flame your denial for me
The sword of the gods!
Watching your children die
Your fist to the gods you cry
"Why must it be, why am I damned, forsaken"
I have always served your shrines and altars
Now I'll see you burn!
[Endyamon:]
Why must this come to pass?
Gods of the heaven's vast
Await the night you die, now!
The sword of the gods!
Rise!
Cold yet burning, calm yet so murderous
We rise like mist from the earth
As above, so it shall be below
We invoke death with one final prayer
Pain is the sign where I will find
The only shred of magic that won't be left behind
I take to the air
Fear rips the temples of power
My law is despair, a vision of flame I am blinding
My sword is the rainbow, I sever the sky
[The Sword:]
The hammer of death
The sword of the gods
I am the wish of blood that calls to blood
I rise on the air
I rise on the sea
Smashing the flames of denial for me
The sword of the gods!
[Endyamon:]
The blood of man is the blood of vengeance!
The sword of the gods!
Die!
