A Descent Into The Kingdom Of The Shades lyrics

The wind was whipping my face

glory is what I craved

As I proudly rode unaware,

that soon I`d meet my fate.

Onwards we marched.

When the light of day light up

the field we were drawn up

ready to attack

the armies met with a deafening clang

yelling their battle

cries up to the sky

The Oracle "Most of man will fall

decimated by barbarian blades

hades waits, women mourn

`cause by twilight they`ll be gone

to the Kingdom Of The Shades"

May Mars be by our side

a vang of brutal pain, I feel onto my knees

the steel as cold as ice cruelty bit my flesh

and I passed through...

I stand in dark, shadows crowd the bank

of the river styx

Hesr them moan

Slowly I approach the waters dark and thick

a boat is getting near

for my last voyage

Burning eyes of fire, ancient bones

boatman of Hades sails to the bank,

the time has come take me away



[Charon:] "You know the price, pay me and

I`ll take you to the other side

the silver coin I keep in my mouth

is what I owe you.



[Charon:] Get aboard.

I`m leaving light behind

Hopeless 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 guarding

this grim place. Hades welcomes us all with a

sombre, warm embrace to the Kingdom Of The Shades"
