Future Wars Lyrics

A place afar in distant dreams

 Mystic winds blow

 Men mount birds of prey to war

 And raid each others shore

 Wizards and Warlocks battle by night

 One survives by cunning and might

 Take what you can by sword and sabre

 Just reward for perilous labour

 

 Stands among them a natural King

 A man of barbaric breed

 In a blade of steel he lays his trust

 Killing and taking his needs

 Upon him the scars of battles gone by

 From many who have gazed in his murderous eye

 Astride his mount he cursed and then

 Assembled his men in thousands and ten

 Onward lads we'll kill them all

 Victory is ours

 We'll have their heads and female slaves

 Soon to loot their towers

 Riding hard they rushed the gates

 And scaled the granite walls

 Through boiling oil and falling stone

 His men endured it all

 

 In bloody streets the battle raged

 Brave men died and women were caged

 Amidst the hoard, a barbaric roar

 He gut the guard and kicked down the door

 Sword in one hand, torch in the other

 Alert every step of the way

 If legends be true this place is cursed

 Demons stand guard night and day

 

 Living hell cloaked in black

 Three ungodly hosts

 Upon the dais a ball of light

 Which binds them to their post

 Faster than a striking cobra

 Hit the altar and knocked it over

 Shattered in a silver shower

 The priests of hell have lost their power

 

 Up the stairs a golden door

 The queen awaits within

 Her naked body close to his

 The prize is won again

 And has she yields to his force

 His mind drifts off to Future Wars
