Ride out! Our men need help, ride out to Badon Hill Unsheath your British steel and kill! The day has come at last, the men from foreign shores Shall suffer at our hands we swore! Behind this shield my pride is burning up my heart Our rage and battle cries ring out The strength of men who stand defending their own land Shall triumph, victory is at hand! Heal our land Our blood stained land We'll be one with the land we belong We'll stand strong to defend what we love Ride them down, crush them all Victory shall be ours this day! We'll not yield, never! And we'll strike them to the ground We'll fight until we cannot stand And if we die this day, together we shall fall Our souls will live forevermore! Heal our land Our blood stained land We'll be one with the land we belong We'll stand strong to defend what we love Ride them down, crush them all Victory shall be ours this day!

A forest glade beyond the veil A gnome begins to tell his tale Elfin music fills the air Guided through the astral planes So familier, yet so strange Like a dream we never had Enchanted waters hidden from sight A pool beneath the clear moonlight Across the water, Undines dance Nights of wonder, nights so still Faerie lights and hollow hills Regain the magic we once knew Another world is shining through Another world that we once knew Hear the forest echo, hear the pipes of Pan And the veil surrounding now becomes undone!

Wake Oh knights from thy slumber! The land that you fought to keep good and green Has fallen and needs you, needs you! To fight once again! Drink of this and take thy fill, For the water falls by the wizard's will Arthur awaits our day of need, Then the King shall arise for all to see! Ride white mares throughout England! As Merlin foretold, the true knights of old With Arthur our Saviour, Saviour! Now fight for this land Drink of this and take thy fill, For the water falls by the wizard's will Arthur awaits our day of need, Then the King shall arise for all to see!

Walking through the country on a moonlit night High up on a hill, a ruin from days of old, haunted so they say A blood soaked scream cuts through the air A girl lies slaughtered in the castle grounds Kneeling by her side, a creature grotesque and foul, dying his cap in her blood Paralysed with fear as it comes for me Evil deeds are caught in the aether Manifesting on the other side Elementals are born in the darkness Time for the Red Cap to spill blood again Try to run away but there's a weight on me Pulling me down as if the ruin is sinking into the depths of hell A stab of pain, blood fills my mouth Evil deeds are caught in the aether Manifesting on the other side Elementals are born in the darkness Time for the Red Cap to spill blood again

The sword of power, wielded by Kings In ages gone by The lady of the lake, to Merlin she gave The mighty Excalibur Handed to Uther, whose lust brought a child The future King Arthur Taken by Merlin and raised far from home The legend was born The sword was drawn out from the stone Thrust in by Uther Arthur the King! in Camelot reigned The years past in splendour Guinevere betrayed and Lancelot fled Arthur lay with Morganna The incestuous child Mordred was born To usurp the kingdom Excalibur - drawn from the stone Excalibur - holder of all the magic The dragon's mist rose from beyond To Avalon, sail forevermore! Excalibur - drawn from the stone Excalibur - holder of all the magic The dragon's mist rose from beyond To Avalon, sail forevermore!

This track is instrumental.
Lost and far from anywhere A distant light ahead You're shown into a crooked room Corpses cooking in the fire You're told to take your turn Then darkness covers all your sight Fear Dearg! Beware the red man at twilight Fear Dearg! The faerie jester of Elfame is here Wake up cold on a hillside Left there all alone With laughter ringing all around Every night is a horror When midnight comes around You're haunted now, forevermore Fear Dearg! Beware the red man at twilight Fear Dearg! The faerie jester of Elfame is here

Down from the ancient black Welsh mountains He came with murderous intent in his heart, Beheld a grudge to the town of Shrewsbury To kill the folk and flood all their lands So wicked he would dam the Severn So monstrous : with terror behold… The Wrekin Giant! He set out to flood our lands And destroy all our citizens Oh the terror he doth bring into our lives Torments us all! The Wrekin Giant! He set out to flood our lands And destroy all our citizens Oh the terror he doth bring into our lives Torments us all! The Wrekin Giant! He set out to flood our lands And destroy all our citizens Oh the terror he doth bring into our lives Torments us all! Then, through the mist the giant came looming A cobbler approached with trickery at hand Casting aside the soil he'd gathered With a thunderous roar he strode into the night... The Wrekin Giant! He set out to flood our lands And destroy all our citizens Oh the terror he doth bring into our lives Torments us all!

Marching through the mist, stronger than death Warriors unite, the guardians of steel Battle is nigh, blood will be spilt Metal prevails, crushes the weak Drinking the ale which fuels us to fight Posers defeated flee into the night Storming the gates, banners will fly Death holds no fear, for metal we'll die! Leather and spikes shine in the night Metal will prevail The glory of steel, burning with pride Forever standing strong Rise! Unite! For metal we fight! Leather and spikes shine in the night Metal will prevail The glory of steel, burning with pride Forever standing strong Rise! Unite! For metal we fight!

A ghostly mist drifts through the trees Lingering in the violet gleam Silent marching, one by one Dwellers from the forest come To seek the throne, once left to fall Saved from ruin, saved for all To see the power and the might A glorious reign is now in sight Hear the woodland pipers call Ringing through the trees, so tall Rejoice and sing, a glorious time has come Heirs to the throne of metal Steel is shining, Dark Forest rising Heirs to the throne of metal Vapors rising from the soil As they pass, those who are loyal Shrouded in a mystic light Specters moving through the night Death to those who seek the end Of the steel which we defend True to ourselves and to our own Rulers on the metal throne Hear the woodland pipers call Ringing through the trees, so tall Rejoice and sing, a glorious time has come Heirs to the throne of metal Steel is shining, Dark Forest rising Heirs to the throne of metal
