The last light of the day is dying on the Ground The echoes of our footsteps are the only voice in here What evil power lurks inside these walls We grab our swords to destroy the demon hordes By the blade of fire, i smash the glooming skull Look him in the eye and he will crawl back from the crypt Blood Red Nails Hear the pale prince laughing, he reigns this dead city Mighty and powerful with cobwebs on his hands Hammering nails into the wall to represent the dead The story of two cities which will drown in their own blood Hide inside these crimson walls and ruled by old witchcraft Blood Red Nails Drugged by lotus flowers, Lost in the catacombs Faint cries for help from deep inside the tombs We rush our way back through corpse-filled halls We take the throne when you’re buried in the dirt Blood Red Nails

The flames light up the sky, the pagans sing their songs Awaiting the last days of Dumnonia Bring back the old Gods When the King is dead Summoning the Druids When the King is dead Meeting the Master When the King is dead Swords without hope When the King is dead He took the sword out of the stone, part of the prophecy But Merlin knows the end, One Man can’t rule the land Betrayed by Lancelot and hunt by Saxon hordes But he will stand up tall, wielding Excalibur An uncrowned warrior, who never would be King Bring back….. The sky is grey as the waters below The bastard son lies dead in the snow Parcival, come and take my hand And lead me to my promised land No place for me on this bloody ground After me the real king will be found Throw my sword deep into the sea In Avalon they will bury me The King is dead - And Merlins gone The King is dead - Taliesin´s song The King is dead - The land is lost The King is dead - We´ll count the cost The King is dead - The circles break The King is dead - That was his fate The King is dead - The light is gone The King is dead - In Avalon He is gone He is dying
