Blood And Iron - Lyrics by Bathory


Lyrics
O, so it is written son
When all waters and land you see
All around came to birth
Man and beast was one
And the gods of the sky
Walked the face of the earth
Few free and innocent
Man strolled paths next to those
Of beasts seeing no signs
But stars in the sky
Knowing of day and night
Of rain and winds, hunger and fright
But not of death nor of life
While all was at ease with all
Living creatures and beast and the godsof the sky enjoyed the lavish riches of this world,giants rose out of their caves and took to the skieschallenging the gods for the power of the universe.
Only when the great halls of Valhalla stood aflamelighting up the worlds all around did the godswake up from their drunken sleep, to speed through the heavensand clash with the giants in the greatest battle ever seen.
Heads arms and legs of both giant and god fell downupon the earth and... The weapons... The swords of shining metal...
And those who found them and took these shining bladesin hand were only men, now man was the master of this world.
The story tells of stormy skies
Black clouds gathered up high
And of lightning striking from a
Burning bloodred sky
The mountains crumbled to the seas
Earth shook the worlds collide
Ending the age of gods
Gbirth to our time
And man lived and learned
The secret of steel
Ore of earth - fire of sky
Forged is blade of gods
Blood and iron
So the age to learn and to teachfor man begins, the power to knowthe blood and iron discipline, andtell the story of how man was grantedthese shining blades of steel
Knowing of the past she will knowof the tomorrow and man shall reign, yes,even conquer other worlds and she will setsails on her starships sailing across theblack space and become the new gods of the skies.
The skies...
