Dark Avenger
Manowar

He broke the laws of the elders

So they plucked out his eye,

Took his land and fortune,

Left him to die

Bound on the shoreline,

Left for the tide,

Sees his life-blood leaving...

Circling lower, the vultures fly

These bones may be broken

But the spirit can't die

And the Gods see his anguish

And give him a sign

From the floor of the ocean

The ship of the lost souls rise

And they take him where no one sleeps while the undead cry,

Where no one sleeps while the undead cry...

And in the world above

The elders sing,

On his land they live...

Let death's bell ring

[Narration:]

He was met at the gate of Hades

By the Guardian of the Lost Souls,

The Keeper of the Unavenged

And He did say to him:

Let ye not pass, Abbadon

Return to the world

From whence you came

And seek payment

Not only for thine own anguish

But vindicate the souls

Of the Unavenged

And they placed in his hands

A sword made for him

Called 'Vengeance'

Forged in brimstone

And tempered

By the woeful tears of the Unavenged

And to carry him up on his journey

Back to the upper world

They brought forth

Their Demon horse

Called 'Black Death'

A grim steed

So fearsome in might

And black in colour

That he could stand as one with the Darkness...

Save for his burning eyes

Of crimson fire

And on that night

They rode up from Hell

The pounding of his hooves

Did clap like thunder!

[Chorus:]

Burning, death, destruction

Raping their daughters and wives

In blood I take my payment

In full with their lives

No one can escape me

On Black Death I ride

When kissed by the sword of Vengeance

Your head lays there by your side

I take the lives of all that I once knew

The torn flesh of a slow death waits for you

[Chorus:]

Burning, death, destruction

Raping their daughters and wives

In blood I take my payment

In full with their lives

I spare not land or servants

My wake is smoke and flame

I take their wives and daughters

They stand there watching

Hoping to gain their lives

But when I'm through they know that they must pay

[Chorus:]

Burning, death, destruction

Raping their daughters and wives

In blood I take my payment

In full with their lives
