Battle Hymns ft. Tiago Costa Lyrics

I watch the fire grow in spires to the glowing skies

Billowing in brilliant benefaction to the heathen form

I watch the webbed wings of dragons touch the heavens

Suffocating their eclipse upon the light behind the demon's horns

I held my breath amid the presence of the serpentine

As towering, the cloud of their enshroudment thickens over me

I saw the talons on the mountain tops of snow and ice

And rode upon the claws that carry fable into destiny

Raise your fists to sky

For battle hymns we cry

Can you hear all the shrieking creatures

All the rhythms and the riffs in cacophony

Lullabies for the ancient abominations

Listen now as the battle hymns ring out

Like symphonies of hell

Stare into

The cosmic plains

While perched upon

Your astral throne

Sever all

The shackles of

This feeble world

From metal realms

I hear the growling of the thundering inferno

A percussive elemental force of power in its primal form

The dragons dance across the starless, spacial firmament

Syncopating movements, pirouetting through the firestorm

Within a moment open portals do erupt

And mythic creatures coalesce into the valleys of insanity

They come together, slamming, crashing and becoming

To an epic fucking mosh pit, spiraling calamity

Raise your fists to sky

For battle hymns we cry

Stand and witness a barbaric ancient ritual

Practice of aggression on a devil's night with glasses raised

Watch the bolts of lightning strike and feel the

Radiating energy that fountains through the atmosphere as music plays

Take a step into the fog that covers everything and

Join the giants, troglodytes and ogres and the living dead

Let your inhibitions go and then succumb

Into the influence of heavy metal power and bang your head

Can you hear all the shrieking creatures

All the rhythms and the riffs in cacophony

Lullabies for the ancient abominations

Listen now as the battle hymns ring out

Like symphonies of hell

Like symphonies of hell
