Fires blazing, banners fly Rotting corpses piled around us Pure blood flows, putrid wine Feast of flesh, unholy banquet Vicious battle, countless dead To the victors: spoils and riches A thousand lifetimes now history New chapter opens here tonight Fires in the night Songs of victory Pyres for the white Now that all lay cold and dead Cries to the skies Songs of victory Dark horde arise A world now turned to red Profane dances, ancient songs Carnal sins around the firelight Maggots feasting, a stench of death Golden throne caked with black blood Now a leader: The Angel Black Made a saviour, the chosen master Unholy minions rally ’round Drink to future conquests won Feast is over, embers glow East horizon, red dawn rising Generals massing, plans unfurled And so begins The Campaign of Death Rid the world of the mortal filth Gather ’round The Blackened Angel Sound the war horns, the battle cry Dark horde again defiles the sky
