The sword-mage king swears vengeance on his robot alien enemies!
lyrics
It's been seven years
Since our subjugation
Everything dear
to my heart has faded
Left here alone
In this cell of iron bars
Even then, they used to be ours
It's been seven years
And still all this hatred
Burns in my lungs
It rages unabated
Never before
Have I felt so powerless
It's been seven long years without rest
If I could just get out of here
I'd make sure their leader hangs high
I'll plead to the gods for their power
I'll make them regret that they left me alive
Oh, the bitterness lingers on the back of my tongue
Oh, I may be defeated but I won't stay that way for long
I'll never rest 'til they've met with my blade
I'll take my revenge
And render the circuits ablaze
This darkness sinks in
Consumes, engulfs me slowly
Torches long doused
Now reignite with fury
Power long lost
Is sent coursing through my veins
Through my rage through my anger
I summon my blade
And these walls can't contain me
I will not be cowed anymore
By these mindless
Machines from the sky
And even if they don't bleed
They burn just the same
If I could just get out of here
These villains will smolder and die
I'll sever their bodies asunder
Reduce them to ashes and none will survive
It's haunting, dark, moody prog rock that alternately makes you want to plan the demise of the human race, bust out the whiskey and party, and go kick someone's ass. Also Mystakin is a great guitarist Single White Infidel
