Summon the darkness, summon the fight, buried in all men's souls
Stand at the ready, steadfast and right, where the battle winds blow
Storms ride, laying waste to the land
Run for your death is at hand
See the gallows are calling for you
As the axes seal your doom
Stand as shadows fall…storm the gates at dawn
Castles of ire, castles of gold, fallen as the bell tolls
Breaking the walls, breaking the tide, where the sword and shield roam
Storms ride, laying waste to the land
Run for your death is at hand
See the gallows are calling for you
As the axes seal your doom
Stand as shadows fall…the chains and the shackles you've wrought have brought death upon you
Storm the gates at dawn
At the dawn of the axe
Hours on hours spent sending men to the gloom
The birds of prey are circling over the tombs
This conquest has started and ends under the runes
Wrath, calling out to the stars
The sign of the axe emblazoned on our black hearts
Onwards from this hell
Forwards see them felled
Take command at the dawn of the axe
The fallen deceivers are left in the sun for the rats
As the dawn becomes endless to you for this sun never sets
Brace for the fight…Slaughter!
At the dawn of the axe
From the North to the South at the edge of time
From the East to the West now the axeblades shine
Storms, ride laying waste to the land
Run for your death is at hand
See the gallows are calling for you
As the axes seal your doom
Stand as shadows fall
Storming the enemies gates at the dawn of the axe
Chant with your last breath at the dawn of the axe
Embrace the veil of death at the dawn of the axe

If Elric had a soundtrack it would be this. It's everything you want from a epic metal album. Like a hot poker in the eye, but in a good way. Scott Malthouse
