Manowar - Achilles, Agony, And Ecstasy (in Eight Parts) lyrics

[PRELUDE] [I HECTOR STORMS THE WALL] I see my chariot run to your ships I'll drive you back to the sea You came here for gold The wall will not hold This day was promised to me The gods are my shield My fate has been sealed Lightning and javelins fly Soon many will fall We are storming the wall Stones fall snow from the sky We will pay with our glory In the fire of battle Zeus today is mine k**ing all my way Like sheep and like cattle Smashing skulls of all who defy I spare not the hammer I spare not the sword This day will ring with my name None have to chase me Let he who will face me k** me or die by the sword [II THE DEATH OF PATROCLUS] Oh friend of mine, how to say goodbye This was your time, but the armor you wore Was mine, I will not rest Until Hector's blod is spilled His bones will all be broken Dragged across the field This bear friend is how we'll say goodbye Until we meet in the sky [III FUNERAL MARCH] [IV ARMOR OF THE GODS] [V HECTOR'S FINAL HOUR] Here is inside the walls Troy, the gods weigh my fate From this day do I abstain, to a memory of hate To pay for all the blood that spilled The many thousands I did k**, No walls can contain the gods' almighty will I hear the silent voices I cannot hide The gods leaves no choices so we all must die Oh Achilles let thy arrows fly. Into the wind, where eagles cross the sky Today my mortal blood will mix with sand It was foretoid I will die by thy hand Into hades my soul descend [VI DEATH HECTOR'S REWARD] Cowards in the grip of fear, no valour to uphold Cut into the earth, with honor long been sold For all shall come to know me As they fall unto their knees Zeus the Thunderer, control my destiny When the cards of life were dealt, My hand a ruthless fate To avenge, and bringeth fury, Hector feel my hate A bloodbath was born to bring, by birth I'm an a**a**in To cut the cord of life and beath, Ties to earth unfasten Blood and fire d**h and hate, your body I will desecrate Dogs and vultures eat your flesh the hall of hades waits k**... Hector's blood lies on the battlefield His body lies on the battlefield His body's mangled wounds, The gods who once protected him are now his gods of doom, Like a tower standing tall, steadfest in direction I fall upon you bringing d**h, the gods give no protection Coward in the grip of fear, no valour to uphold Cut into the earth, with honor long been sold For all shall come to know me, as they fall ino their knees Zeus the Thunderer, control my destiny Blood and fire d**h and hate, you body I will desecrate Dogs and vultures eat your flesh the hall of hades waits Die, die, die... [VII THE DESECRATION OF HECTOR'S BODY] [PART 1] [PART 2] [VIII THE GLORY OF ACHILLES] The oath of the gods, this day was fulfilled In the heat of the battle, Hector was k**ed See him Patroclus, down in the dust Rejoice in his d**h my symbol of trust A dozen highborn youths, have been k**ed Cutting their throats their blood was all spilled Their bodies set at the fool of your fire With oxen, sheep and two of your hounds Your funeral pyre high off the ground Hector's body dragged three times around I will carry the torch to your funeral pyre I will ask of the wind to send high your fire Hector's blood will not be washed from my body until your body is burned A prophecy spoken a promice fulfilled More blood will be spilled, more will be k**ed.
