4. THE ALLEGIANCE

When the days are dark and the night is long

You know the way

When my feeling's down and the lights are out

You're here to stay

I can rely anytime on you

With heart and soul

Nothing is here to control my mind

You have it all

So many liars, hypocrites, so many pretenders

Now it's time to swear!

I pledge allegiance to the highest gift on earth

I pledge allegiance to the metal way of life

I pledge allegiance

When the times are tough and the road is long

Heavy Metal rules my life!

If you've got a job or you're out of work

Don't give a damn

If you're wearing jeans or some metal spikes

Trust us my friend

You can always rely on us

Faithful and strong

Nothing here that can harm you now

Where you belong

So many liars, hypocrites, so many pretenders

But you're the one that's true

We pledge allegiance to the highest gift on earth

We pledge allegiance to the metal way of life

We pledge allegiance

Whem the times are tough and my will's gone weak

Heavy Metal shows the way!

Tell me what protects your soul!

Heavy Metal does it all!

Tell me what to do out there!

All together we will swear!

We pledge allegiance to the highest gift on earth

We pledge allegiance to the ValSans way of life

We pledge allegiance

When the times are tough and my will's gone weak

ValSans, ValSans rules my life!
