Bathory: Blood and iron

O, so it is written sonWhen all waters and land you seeAll around came to birthMan and beast was oneAnd the gods of the skyWalked the face of the earthFew free and innocentMan strolled paths next to thoseOf beasts seeing no signsBut stars in the skyKnowing of day and nightOf rain and winds, hunger and frightBut not of death nor of lifeWhile all was at ease with allLiving creatures and beast and the gods of the sky enjoyed the lavishriches of this world, giants rose out of their caves and took to theskies challenging the gods for the power of the universe.Only when the great halls of Valhalla stood aflame lighting up theworlds all around did the gods wake up from their drunken sleep, tospeed through the heavens and clash with the giants in the greatestbattle ever seen.Heads arms and legs of both giant and god fell down upon the earthand... The weapons... The swords of shining metal... And those whofound them and took these shining blades in hand were only men, nowman was the master of this world.The story tells of stormy skies [sings: raging winds]Black clouds gathered up highAnd of lightning striking from aBurning bloodred skyThe mountains crumbled to the seasEarth shook the worlds collideEnding the age of godsGiving birth to our timeAnd man lived and learnedThe secret of steelOre of earth - fire of skyForged is blade of godsBlood and iron Blood and ironBlood and iron Blood and ironBlood and iron Blood and ironBlood and iron Blood and ironSo the age to learn and to teachfor man begins, the power to knowthe blood and iron discipline, andtell the story of how man was grantedthese shining blades of steelKnowing of the past she will knowof the tomorrow and man shall reign, yes,even conquer other worlds and she will setsails on her starships sailing across theblack space and become the new gods of the skies.(The skies... the skies... the skies... the skies... the skies...the skies... the skies...)Blood and iron.
