1. Blood Red Shores

Race across the water toward the distant shores
Soldiers filled with honor, were heading off to war
My hands start shaking as anxiety takes hold
As we near the beaches to conquer our foes

Storm the beach do or die, Semper Fi
My foot hits the sand as all hell breaks loose
Half my men cut down

They had never told us that it would be like this
Bullets flying everywhere while bombs blow men to bits
Nowhere to take cover from above death rains
See the medics rushing to those who scream in pain

Storm the beach do or die, Semper Fi
The horrors that I see will haunt my very thoughts
For all my days

Blood
I see it everywhere
From the bodies of those who never stood a chance
On
And on we go
I just pray I dont die on these blood red shores of France

Now many years later I think back to that morn
How my long time friends and I had all gone off to war
Now were back together, feel sadness in my bones
Read the words of valor upon our tombstones

Storm the beach do or die, Semper Fi
When I close my eyes the images return
So vividly

Blood
I see it everywhere
From the bodies of those who never stood a chance
On
And on we went
As so many had died on those blood red shores of France




2. Dragon's Hoard

or hundreds of winters the dragon lay sleeping in a cavern far beneath the earth
Protecting its treasure from any whod venture too near
Once every decade itd rise from its slumber to soar over mountains and seas
Collecting more treasure while filling the heartland with fear

Mighty wings would lift it higher from one city to the next
Kills its foes with breath of fire, powerful demon of death

Many attempted to bring the dragon down
Widows their wives soon became
Collecting its treasure from across the land
Protecting my hoard
From his foes with its breath of flame

Back in its cavern the dragon would travel to sleep for another ten years
Content in the knowledge that its treasure hoard had grown
Few brave souls would dare to pursue it in hopes to slay it in its sleep
And have many stories of their noble deeds be told

Not knowing that sleeping dragons can detect someone nearby
Theyd rush in to find the dragon was awake its foes would die

Many attempted to bring the dragon down
Widows their wives soon became
Collecting its treasure from across the land
Protecting my hoard
From his foes with its breath of flame



Many attempted to bring the dragon down
Widows their wives soon became
Collecting its treasure from across the land
Protecting my hoard
From his foes with its breath of flame




3. Invitation

Come now and listen to legends and history
Heroes and demons and devils and gods
Come hear our stories of valor and infamy
Tales of the past that was both near and far

Hear now our songs as they take you to distant lands
You will find that our tales will enchant you
Enter our world do not fear we shall be your guides
As you journey through our realm of legends

Ancient tales, stories of honor
Tales of revenge on land and on sea
Creatures of myth, hoarding of treasure
The end of days, and mystery




4. Queen Anne's Revenge

He terrorized the eastern waters for three dreadful years
His savagery is legendary, His name has lived on through the ages
Born in the end of the 1600s, his given name was Edward
One look at him would terrify, Black-Beard is what he became known as

He made himself look hellish
Framing his face in fire
By placing long lighted matches
Under his hat to strike fear in his prey

Hed hide his ship and lay in waiting for some unsuspecting vessel
Hed attack with such ferocity, No one ever acted so fiercely
He carried three bracers of pistols, had lots of rum for all his men
When things got slow hed stir thing up, By shooting his guns in his dark cabin

They say he had fourteen wives
And a governors refuge
He came to shore quite often
He even once took the Kings pardon

He raped and murdered the innocent
He was the terror that sailed the sea
Along the mid-Atlantic coast
Black Beard brought horror and misery
So many met with a watery grave
So many ships fell by his hand
His pure brutality knew no bounds
The oceans devil and his evil band

He had taken such a toll upon the sea
All the people cried for something to be done
Then Virginias governor had had enough
He sent his own ship to capture him dead or alive


He raped and murdered the innocent
He was the terror that sailed the sea
Along the mid-Atlantic coast
Black Beard brought horror and misery
Then in the year 1718
On November twenty first
Near the Ocracoke Inlet
Twenty-five wounds ended his blood-thirst




5. The Final Hour

he prophecy had been foretold for centuries
Revealing visions of the end
The current state of things unveiling signs of doom
The horsemen now are on their way

You cannot run you cannot hide
Your prayers cant save you now the time has come to die

When the night falls, oh
And the moon is red as blood
The final hour, oh
The beast will arise and prepare its victory

The Time has come to lay to rest the Enemy
The hour of Death is drawing near
The Famine strikes all hope is lost as thousands fall
Disease and Pestilence rage on

No turning back we shall not fall
Bloodthirsty demons attack in the night and now we must fight for our lives

When the night falls, oh
And the moon is red as blood
The final hour, oh
The beast will arise and prepare its victory


As corpses rot the One stands tall
The greatest evil that the world has ever known

When the night falls, oh
And the moon is red as blood
The final hour, oh
The beast will arise and prepare for
When the night falls, oh
And the moon is red as blood
The final hour, oh
The One will arise and declare its victory
Oh
Declaring the battle won




6. Beowulf Trilogy: I. Awakening

In the abyss where demons reign
Lies the unholy one
Waits for the time when he would rise
To reek havoc on the world
Soon his time approaches, soon he will unleash
Death and carnage through land
Undying rage fuels his black heart
His thirst for blood beyond contain
Now the gate has opened, doorway to our world
The beast will now venture through




7. Beowulf Trilogy: II. Vengeance Rising

From the darkest pits of hell he has come
To devour and destroy all
His hatred hell unleash on all who cross his path
He is evil incarnate

Vengeance rising from the ashes
Death is coming for you all

He will bring forth your demise, kill you all
In his wake he leaves slaughter
Hes the butcher of the land, youre his prey
He is evil like no other

Vengeance rising from the ashes
Death is coming for you all
Ancient evil is upon you
Endless bloodshed, all will fall

To Denmark he has come, ancient land
Attacks them in the darkness
Rips flesh right off their bones, then he drinks their blood
Takes pleasure in the madness

Vengeance rising from the ashes
Death is coming for you all
Ancient evil is upon you
Endless bloodshed, all will fall

His thirst for blood cannot be quenched
He will spread this massacre far and wide

There is no end in sight, no escape
From this annihilation
All who face him die, Grendel is his name
Total devastation

Vengeance rising from the ashes
Death is coming for you all
Ancient evil is upon you
Endless bloodshed, all will fall




8. Beowulf Trilogy: III. Ancient Tale of Valor

In a time of warlords and kings there lived a man of unrivaled power
Might the likes of which none could match, he fought without the need of weapon in hand
Scandinavia, cold harsh land which he called home
Beowulf was his name, he was the hero of the northern realm, his legend grew strong

Further to the south there ruled a king named Hrothgar
Favored by the fortunes of war he was revered
Many followed this noble leader to enter his ranks
And in time his army grew to one mighty force

So his mind would turn to new ideas
He would build the greatest hall in all the world
It would be his throne room where hed rule
And dispense gifts to all the good people of his land

Unbeknownst to the great king a demon from the banished lands
Began to prowl the hall, soon many would fall
Grendel would bring havoc and destruction to them all
Each night brought a new attack, the kings army tried to fight back
Death was their reward, through deadly wounds blood poured
Grendel was impervious to hammer spear and sword

All seemed hopeless as none could stop this beast
News traveled all across the land
Far away our hero heard the tales of what went on
The time for vital action was at hand to slay the beast
)

With fourteen men he then set sail south across the open sea
To Denmark, to Heorot, to the joy of the mighty Danish king

His arrival brought joy and happiness
Finally hope had arrived
Beowulf vowed to bring an end to the beast
And avenge those who had died

Grendel showed up later that night, his mind still set on ruin and carnage
But much to the demons surprise
The hero of the north was ready to fight
Savagely they fought
Filling the hall with disaster
But when morning came
Beowulf was cheered as people celebrated his victory




9. Cry For Vengeance

With morning light the terror came which shocked us to the core
An enemy from foreign lands right at our very door
With cold indifference he did strike not caring who would die
Believing the insanity, brought terror from the sky

Cry out!
We shall avenge the fallen
Unite!
We must destroy them all
Stand strong!
We will not show them mercy
They all must fall

From an early age they have been taught to hate and kill our kind
Claiming its a holy war, theyre all out of their minds
Brainwashed fools believing all theyre told, why cant they see?
Beyond the lies theyre being fed by their hypocrisy

Cry out!
We shall avenge the fallen
Unite!
We must destroy them all
Stand strong!
We will not show them mercy
They all must fall

Cry for revenge
We must seek out our enemies
War has been waged
We must take up the fight
No other choice
Into battle we all must go
Time has arrived
Now they will feel our furious might


Cry for vengeance cry for glory - We will prevail
Seek them out and kill them all - They cannot hide
Show no mercy, fight with fury -Vengeance is ours
Honor bound we will not fall - They all must die




10. Prophecy

(Spoken)
"The beast was allowed to make proud claims which were insulting to God, and it was permitted to have authority for forty-two months. It began to curse God, his name, the place where he lives, and all those who live in heaven. It was allowed to fight against God's people and to defeat them, and it was given authority over every tribe, nation, language, and race. All people living on earth will worship it..."
Revelation 13:5-8




11. Necromancer

Crouching in the darkness listening for the slightest sound
Finger on the trigger, praying I dont die in this forsaken place
Filled with dread, my heart is racing
Never in my life did I ever think Id see what I have seen

Two weeks ago, I was given my new orders
Travel to an island in a classified location
There I was to seek out my target which I was to eliminate
Mission was need to know / They felt I had no need
Orders shrouded in darkness / They left me in the dark
That was all I was told / They had told me
Nothing more

A mission just like any other, or so I thought
At first all seemed quiet, much too quiet
Through the jungles I traversed
My eyes and ears were focused on all sights and sounds
Toward some castle that stood for centuries
Unopposed was I

The only other information given to me was the ID of my objective
A scientist was he working for the enemy
On some top secret weapon that would turn the tides of the war
Little did I know
I was not prepared for what I then saw

Foul creatures swarmed in all around me
Vile creations once were human
But not any more
They are the living dead
The product of a mad man
A race of zombies designed for war


How I survived this long I do not know
Will I make it through the night?
I can feel that Ive not long to go
I just pray that if I die
I will not become like the vile creatures I fight


How can I fight this evil spawn?
I unload my clip before one of them falls
For each one I drop ten take its place
I am losing this unholy race
Unending wave of the undead
Filling my soul with ghastly dread
I do not know how Ill survive
I pray I make it out alive
