Civil War - The Killer Angels lyrics



Tracks



01. King Of The Sun

He rocked, he rolled, he was the idol
To be true, the deal was kinda shirty
But he became a guiding light
Shot down in flames
By Spanish soldiers
But we will never, never ever
Forget his wicked paradise
Some people live forever
Some people always seem to lose
No man is bullet proof

He's the king of the sun,
the Devil in disguise
Who could have seen
that his kingdom soon would fall
A funeral pyre of dark desire
He was the king of the sun

Explore the world, life is a gold mine
And we will never, never ever
Forget the legendary ones

Inside the golden city
Behold the unholy rite
A human sacrifice

Heaven is for heroes and hell is full of fools
Searching for a brighter world
where life is pure and true
Marching to oblivion or to eternal fame
Ride into infinity and testify in pain

He's the king of the sun;
he's the king of the stars
He's the king of the sun
and the moon and the stars

02. First To Fight

Here' the elite squad the special command
Secret assassins, a few chosen men
Heaven may cry, heed the call
Ready to die, it's the thrill of the race
Guardians when terror is showing its face
You can try, you can hide, it's suicide
You're all going down

Fight fire with fire; attack by surprise
They live though they're destined to die

They're always the first to fight
This is unconventional warfare step out of the light
Heroes of our time
They're always the first to fight
They're always the first to fight
This is unconventional warfare step out of the light
Heroes of our time
They're always the first to fight

A flirt with the danger, a life on the edge
The soldiers of anger; to serve and protect
A force always ready to strike
Hunting the monsters walking this earth
All lost in this chaos, we pray for rebirth
Shall this war end all wars
Or is this just the way of the world

Come killer angels; head for the light
Prepare for the venomous bite

Here's The elite squad the special command
Secret assassins, a few chosen men
A force always ready to strike

Fight fire with fire; attack by surprise
Prepare for the venomous bite

03. Saint Patrick's Day

Escape from the slavery
From the villain he ran for his life
Left the island far behind
To study the heavenly might

Many lessons yet to be learned
But he would return

Rise up to meet his fate
To cast the druids away
Sent from the God above
A weapon to teach heathens pray

Many worship his name
Got his portrait in frame
Now listen to me, it is more than a tale

In times of rage and fury
You are the pride and glory
The world is mad it has gone insane
When stormy night keeps roaring
I hear the spirits calling
We'll meet again along the way
Saint Patrick's Day

Life is a clever path
A riddle of Good versus Bad
Friends turn to enemies
This breakdown makes me so sad
All these wars and we never learned
Shall he return?

Guess it's built on a lie
Not a heavenly sign
What can I do?
I just cry out your name

Many worship his name
Got his portrait in frame
Now listen to me, it is more than a tale

Chorus

04. Rome Is Falling

You and I will last forever
But there are many reasons why I can not stay
Now we shall meet again in heaven
Going out to war is never easy that is true
Another day, another life I may not have to sacrifice
The only good thing in my life

A battle cry, a soldier's sigh, I wish I hadn't said goodbye
This time I won't be coming home
In the heat of the fight I search for the light
A rainbow is painting the sky
I am destined now to die

Chorus
I'm here to march 'gainst the force of evil
Here to die in the pouring rain
But just as sure as Rome is falling
I'll be rising again
I will return as a new believer
Here to conquer the walls of pain
And just as sure as Rome is falling
I'll be rising again

Now I'm writing you this letter
But I'm not sure if you will ever see these words

Another day, another life I may not have to sacrifice
But I'm still aiming for the sky
In this suburb to Hell I'm living to tell
'Bout how I defended my Rome
Hail the Caesar, Kingdom Come

Chorus
I'm here to march 'gainst the force of evil
Here to die in the pouring rain
But just as sure as Rome is falling
I'll be rising again
I will return as a new believer
Here to conquer the walls of pain
And just as sure as Rome is falling
I'll be rising again

05. Sons Of Avalon

Stand tight; in darkness you'll see the light
Tonight the madness will rise
Raise your fist in the air
There will be brothers everywhere
Disorder and chaos, but we don't care
Hold on; this flame shall forever burn
Be strong; you still have to learn
Flesh and blood, hard as steel
Let them run in their wheel
The daytime eclipse for you and me

Now where is the miracle?
Well, just close your eyes

We are the creatures
you face in your dreams
Go, walk the water,
we are sons of Avalon
As one with the forest
Mountains and lakes
Protectors behold
the prodigal sons of Avalon

Speed up; catch up with your own fire
Don't stop; it's all in your hands
Sing my song, what is wrong?
Now the race is almost won
The tables have turned, set the spirits free

Well is the miracle?
We are in flames and glory

06. I Will Rule The Universe

I will rule the universe

1804 as emperor sworn
soldier at heart a child of war
Napoleon Bonaparte
A master of the game and equal to God
Invading the lands of greed and fraud
Turned warfare to an art

He was known as the chosen one
Born 1769 in Corsica
His family's joy and pride
It is just like a fairy tale
This boy was not for sale
And he never lied, but how he cried:

I will rule the universe
I'm the glory, I'm the brave
Going down in history forever
I will rule the universe
I shall crush their sorrows veil
And soon I will be marching into heaven
I'm greater than God

Who could believe this boy would achieve
All of his dreams and what he believed
It went down in history
But luck has an end you know it too well
Heaven is bound to turn into Hell
His time was running out

At the battle of Waterloo
No chance; the enemy was far to strong
And here's another song
It was the end of the fairy tale
Everyone is bound to fail
It must be right; but damn he tried

I will rule the universe
I'm the glory, I'm the brave
Going down in history forever
I will rule the universe
I shall crush their sorrows veil
And soon I will be marching into heaven
I'm greater than God

There are many types of heroes,
and this is one of a kind
In these days so full of zeros,
I keep gazing at the sky

[Solo]

He was known as the chosen one
Born 1769 in Corsica
His family's joy and pride
It is just like a fairy tale
This boy was not for sale
And he never lied, but how he cried:

I will rule the universe
I'm the glory, I'm the brave
Going down in history forever
I will rule the universe
I shall crush their sorrows veil
And soon I will be marching into heaven
I'm greater than God

07. Lucifer's Court

I search of the grail
I long for immortality
All things must come to an end
Who wants to live forever
So many stories to be told
Oh, how I sold my soul
Fire, ice, wind or rain:
Nothing can stop this game

So many miles away
So many nights are days
But a believer must believe
before he pays

Dream away
Go to the fairytale of lies
I know we have to stay
At Lucifer's Court
Dream away
Go to the fairytale of lies
I know we have to stay
At Lucifer's Court

Exploring the world
In search for eternal life
Now I can see it so clear
I am the link to heaven
So many mountains to be climb
No sacrifice
Right or wrong weak or strong
I am the only one

No need to analyze
It is the cup of Christ
Yet, still I know that
I'm a slave under the Reich

08. Brother Judas

I ride the flames
I'm hard to tame
I live in the shadows of the world
A moonlight night when stars were bright
I came out from the shadows of the world

To all the victims of insanity
And all the warriors 'bout to die

You're a liar; you're a traitor
How you fooled us brother Judas
Burn in fire; meet the haters
Life is brutal brother Judas

Another trace; a different face
Alone in the cradle of the world
Unholy knight; infernal rites
Go back into the shadows of the world

This crazy game may lead us to our grave
But no one really understand

I do believe there's a spell above us
Before my eyes a world in chaos
What can you say? The world is falling
Will there ever be a new day dawning?
I don't know, but here I am

Liar; now we're changing the score
We're for real and you are the the fraud
Money talks we could not believe
Brother Judas
Liar; now we're changing the score
Life is here just open the door
We are here to tell and inform

09. My Own Worst Enemy

The wings of the raven
Set sail for your haven
The fury of mine is always clear
Bout fear, you've felt it all your life
For me there's a reason
To kill for the treason
A conflict increasing in my mind
So why am I the one to blame
I'm a brick in this game

Chorus:
Freedom fighter, heathen lighter
Tell me how I am
You know, I'm own worst enemy
Freedom fighter you enlighten
Shadow of the sun
I'll be marching for the savior
I'm my own worst enemy
I'm my own worst enemy

The crimes of a father
The sins of a mother
Are you one of those
who never cares
about love cause you've seen
it all your life
You know that I've never
Has been taken for clever
Guess I am a pagan for the run
I know that life is not the same
You're controlling the game

10. Gettysburg

Leaving all behind,
the award is to be found
Like a scene from a dream
and a vision of heavenly might
In the cradle of this war, I know,
and that's for sure
When the battle's done:
there can be only one
I am marching against evil
May the Lord be on our side

Ready to fight; fire at will
We shall die in Gettysburg
Ready to fight; fire at will
People will cry over Gettysburg

This inferno turned me blind
there was fire and smoke all around
Dead bodies and blood everywhere
in this unholy ground
Now the future is no more,
we're all lost to this vicious whore
When the victory's won,
I'm a fatherless son
We went out to fight for glory
Only one of us came home

I sit here on my porch
as an old and lonely man
Sometimes I recall
whenn terror struck the land
Was it right to go to arms
to defend the freedom rights
I am sure or else I've lived upon a lie
