Tekst piosenki:
Lair of Doom
Men at arms
I stand before you this final day
my life in the balance
three norns decide my fate
the doom of battle
may bear your lord away
i trust in my shield
my sword shall never stray
under grey stone
let loose a mighty odin's hail
into the lair of doom
reclaim forefather's heirlooms
a coiling ruinous form
insane with gold lust
ancient bane of my race
venemous thief
the strike comes hard and fast
smoke obscures the fray
terror instilled in all hearts
as battle unfolds
under grey stone
let loose a mighty odin's hail
into the lair of doom
reclaim forefather's heirlooms
king beowulf strikes the first blow
battle-fire billows and spews
his sword crumples under his might
the hearts of men turn to ash
but in one the valour still swells
wiglaf lends arms to the king
king beowulfs final attack
naegling shatters on the beasts skull
enraged, boiling frenzy
serpent bite to the neck
Cruel poison, rank ichor flows free
The Hope of the Danes nigh falls faint
Yet still his eyes will not dim!
(solo)
All breath stands bated at once
Ecgtheow's Son lies prostrate
His kinsman rises to the task
Wiglaf and King stand as one
driving their steel through the scales
the obscene beast breathes his last
terror slain
the gods demand the price be paid
the blood of the king
mingles with ashes of blackened earth
wiglaf the last of his line
unquenchable destiny flows through his veins
fated to triumph
fated to rule
fated to reign!
