Hand of Doom - Manowar
Okay, I would just like to inform you guys that I don't really like Manowar. Their lyrics are usually really corny. I'm only putting this song up because my friend Jeb and I listen to it while we play Halo sometimes, just for the hell of it. So, without further ado:

Hands of doom are reaching out to crush all infidels who stray
Time to know the pain, no time to run within
And these hands you see before you will end the light of day
Your ashes will be cast into the wind
Your blood's upon the soil, your body fed to wolves
Not one of you will be left alive
Hear the sound pounding and the army of the night
By the hammer of Thor you now shall die

[Chorus:]
Tonight we strike, there is thunder in the sky
Together we'll fight, some of us will die
But they'll always remember that we made a stand
And many will die by my hand

High atop the mountain, with hammers in the wind
Lusting for blood and death again
In a flash of lightning strike now the house of death invites you
Body and soul to come within
I see the fear you have inside, you can run but never hide
I will hunt you down and tear you limb from limb
Nothing shall remain, not your memory, your name
It will be as though you never, ever lived

[Repeat chorus, 2nd verse, chorus]

The Suicide's Argument - Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Today we have a poem, not song lyrics. Hope you like it.

Ere the birth of my life, if I wished it or no
No question was asked me--it could not be so !
If the life was the question, a thing sent to try
And to live on be YES; what can NO be ? to die.

NATURE'S ANSWER

Is't returned, as 'twas sent ? Is't no worse for the wear ?
Think first, what you ARE ! Call to mind what you WERE !
I gave you innocence, I gave you hope,
Gave health, and genius, and an ample scope,
Return you me guilt, lethargy, despair ?
Make out the invent'ry ; inspect, compare !
Then die--if die you dare !

The Lady Wore Black - Queensrÿche
On a lonely walk this morning
A light mist in the air
Dark clouds laughing at me in silence
Casting shadows through my hair

In the distance I saw a woman
Dressed in black with eyes of grey
She wore her pain like a shackled spirit
Eternal life was her debt to pay

The lady wore black
It's the sign of the prisoners lives
The lady wore black
See the years through the tears in her eyes
The lady wore black
Her mystic power calls to me
The lady wore black
Her love can set me free

The wind song whispered a warning
Telling me to beware
Of the quiet shadowed woman
And of the sadness I would share

We sat for sometime together in silence
Never speaking in words
Of all her thoughts she spoke with her eyes
And I listened remembering all I heard

The lady wore black
It's the sign of the prisoners lives
The lady wore black
See the years through the tears in her eyes
The lady wore black
Her mystic power calls to me
The lady wore black
Her love can set me free

The words she spoke were of forgotten lives
And of all knowledge gained
Mem'ries I had and didn't know why
With a smile she explained
I should have listened to the wind's cold warning
And walked the other way
I touched her soul and now I bear her sentence
But for her love I'll gladly pay

The lady wore black
It's the sign of the prisoners lives
The lady wore black
See the years through the tears in her eyes
The lady wore black
Her mystic power calls to me
The lady wore black
Her love can set me free

Trust - Megadeth
Lost in a dream
Nothing is what it seems
Searching my head
For the words that you said

Tears filled my eyes
As we said our last goodbyes
This sad scene replays
Of you walking away

My body aches from mistakes
Betrayed by lust
We lied to each other so much
That in nothing we trust

Time and again,
She repeats let's be friends
I smile and say yes
Another truth bends,
I must confess

I try to let go, but I know
We'll never end 'til we're dust
We lied to each other again
But I wish I could trust

My body aches from mistakes
Betrayed by lust
We lied to each other so much
That in nothing we trust

God help me please, on my knees
Betrayed by lust
We lied to each other so much
That in nothing we trust

How could this be happening to me
I'm lying when I say "Trust me"
I can't believe this is true
Trust hurts
Why does trust equal suffering

My body aches from mistakes
Betrayed by lust
We lied to each other so much
That in nothing we trust

God help me please, on my knees
Betrayed by lust
We lied to each other so much
That in nothing we trust

My body aches from mistakes
Betrayed by lust
We lied to each other so much
That in nothing we trust

God help me please, on my knees
Betrayed by lust
We lied to each other so much
Absolutely nothing we trust

The Song From Zion - Zao
Wonga. I played so much Halo 2 yesterday...I set a personal record, too. I got 28 kills without dying in one game. That was cool. Here's the song.

His shadow floats upon the earth,
Casting a song from the north (upon the earth),
Yeashua weeps a Zion song thy will of man,
My kingdom gone,
You place all your hatred upon my throne,
Your hands from your own path,
Curse the one that has made you,
I see Cain in all your eyes.
I am laying down to go to sleep forever,
I do not hide my face in shame at all,
I do not cover before your blade,
This is what your black hearts pray.
Time moves as slow as the oceans tide,
Neon explosion in the haggard sky,
No sun shall set,
Lest we forget,
Man's will be done,
The last lamb,
The last hope,
The last song from Zion.

'Tis the Night
Okay, today we have a song I wrote, mainly because the site I get my lyrics from is unavailable for the moment. I just finished this song today, but it might still undergo some changes.

The wind outside is howling, freezing
autumn skies are clouded
no moon, nor sun, to cast light
all the Earth is shrouded

Not a shadow exists in this blackness
hide thyselves with darkest fear
legions of undead arise from the dirt
signal of the end that's drawing near

'Tis the night
when not a soul dares be brave
'tis the night
the spirits call from their grave

Concealed in robes of pure darkness
once living linger again
crafting destruction and terror
instilling suffering, pain

Bridge:
Now hear the call from beyond
answer it, if thou dare
only madness remains for us
so die now! thou must!

Not a weapon can save thee
and there's no saviour
for thou and me

'Tis the night
that the prophets warned us of
'tis the night
Chilled rain pours from above

It ends, but not soon enough to save
no hope left us, here to die
scattered and forlorn amongst the wastes
as fire melts the blackened sky

'Twas the night
when not a soul dared be brave
'twas the night
the spirits called from their grave

'Twas the night
now morning rises again
'twas the night
that put all our efforts to vain

As the Twilight Gave Birth to the Night - Naglfar
As the twilight gave birth to the night
I walked into the forest
The twisted trees clawing at the skies
These are my true domimions
The mist glows red and ablaze the sky
and the funeral wind blows cold
This is where I shall sacrifice
Here I will end my mortal life

Seduced by the October moon
drowning in it's frozen grace
Tempting my nocturnal lusts
Bathing my pale cold face
These dark forests are singing to me
In tongues it cries my name
Bidding me into it's deep dark womb
where my spirit forever shall dwell

And a cold wind of evil
whispers my name in the forest,
I dance with witches and trolls
As the twilight gave birth to the night
I am here... Forever

My burial place will be the mountains,
the forests and the seas
And so my name shall be remembered
for all eternity

And still it cold wind of evil
whispers my name
in the forest as my spirit dance with
witches and trolls
Their hymns are praising me
For I am heir newborn king...
Forever

These dark surroundings are mine,
from smallest slone to the tallest tree
And so I will to be ruler of this night
I will reign in divinity

When Night Falls - Iced Earth
Look, out in the distant sky
Open, up your weakened minds
Feel, what's in store for you
The jackals howling at the moon
See, the curtain of the night
Falling, down into your life
Doom, is headed straight for you
The night comes shining through
Join us in our never ending journey
Into the burning lake of fire
Let us fill your helpless soul
Fill it with sweet desire
When the night falls
When the moon's full
Recall, the look in their eyes
The sign of hat, it burns
They've come for us, but we'll fight
Till death
Hypnotizing, paralyzing
Brings me to my knees
Tantalizing suicide
Drives me to the edge
When the night falls, when death crawls
Frozen in my sleep
Rippers slashing, terror laughing
Numbers burning deep
Join us in our never ending journey
Into the burning lake of fire
Let us fill your helpless soul
Fill it with sweet desire
When the night falls
When the moon's full

Noldor - Blind Guardian
Noldor
Blood is on your hands
Your bane's
A tearful destiny

Black clouds will carry
Rain of blood
I've seen it rain

We were lost
On grinding ice
In fear and hunger
Dead winter reigned
In Araman

[prebridge:]
(You) can't escape
From my damnation
(Nor) run away
From isolation

[bridge:]
Guilty spoke the one
THis deed can't be undone
Hear my words
Fear my curse

[chorus:]
I know where the stars glow
(And the) sky's unclouded
Sweet the water runs my friend
(But) Noldor
Blood is on your hands
Tears unnumbered
You will shet and dwell in pain

Your homeless souls
Shall come to me
There's no release
Slain you might be
Slain you will be
Slain you will be
And the lost
Who will not reach the
House of spirits
(Will) grow old and weary

[prebridge]

[bridge]

[chorus]

I've seen this bitter end
As I've foreseen
The storm and ice
And I could see it
(How) a million died
And I?
The blame's on me
Cause I was not there

[prebridge]

[bridge]

[chorus]

Dead winter reigns
And tomorrow's still unknown
Lies
Condemned and betrayed
Now everything is said
See my eyes
Are full of tears
And a cruel price
We've paid
But still I can't claim
That I'm innocent

Lost

Roads to Madness - Queensrÿche
Arkaik Word of dhe Dai: yesternight - last night

Well, this is the last Archaic word I'm putting up. Finally! It's over! Like I was being forced to do it or something...
This is also the last Queensrÿche song I'll be putting up (at least for a while). So without further ado:

Most of this is memory now
I've gone too far to turn back now
I'm not quite what I thought I was but
Then again I'm maybe more
The blood-words promised, I've spoken
Releasing the names from the circle
Maybe I can leave here now and,
Transcend the boundaries

For now I'm standing here
I'm awaiting this grand transition
The future is but past forgotten
On the road to madness

Times measure rusts as it crawls
I see its face in the looking glass - stop
This screaming laughter hides the pain of its reality
Black, the door was locked I opened
And now I've paid that price ten-fold over
Knowledge - was it worth such torment?
To see the far side of shadow?

And still I'm standing here
I'm awaiting this grand transition
I'm a fool in search of wisdom
And I'm on the road to madness

I'm awaiting endlessly, pounding rhythms echo me
Won't you take me somewhere far beyond the void

And still I'm standing here
I'm awaiting this grand transition
Maybe one day, I'll meet you, and we'll
Walk the roads to madness
Yes, we're on the road to madness

I think they've come to take me
I hear the voice, but there's no-one to see
I can't scream, too late it's time

Stay on the course to pass
You'll never find the answer
To a place where darkened angels seem lost and never found
Scream to see the light of
Forming figures fast behind you
Lay the past in the wind to spin
And your fate will sail beyond the open plains
Sail with angels onward
Live or die for the chosen one said
Saber sights cast a spell behind you
And they lock in all around

Free the scene insider
Never looking back to find why
Ride a course till the end of time
And you'll stand atop the gate
Laying waste in a path recited
Fighting force won't avenge the guided black wing
Oh, electric might poses fright inside me
Seeing light at the end of sight reminds me
I've passed away
