Call to Arms
I see the full moon rising Across the blackest night The sails on the horizon Dragon-ships in flight Gods are in the heavens A crack across the sky Coming with the thunder Soon you’re gonna die Gods of war Stand in fear Strike you down With the hammer of the gods Hammer of the gods The silhouettes of sunrise Everything is still Inside your heart is pounding Waiting for the kill Crashing through the silence Come the Viking hordes Screaming down with terror With battle-axe and sword Gods of war Straight from Hell Strike you down With the hammer of the gods Hammer of the gods Prepare to meet the fury Coming with the dawn Take your wives and children Protect them from the storm Take your stand before them Fighting to the last Warriors of the Northland Soon will cross your path Gods of war Stand in fear Strike you down With the hammer of the gods Hammer of the gods Hammer of the gods Hammer of the gods Of the gods

It was back in ‘79 When we rode the mighty tide It swept across the world We came together We never stood alone Wherever we did roam This legacy of rock Would last forever, yeah [chorus] Show me your hands Show me your hands Raise up your hands Deliver me Defenders of the faith To you this vow we make When our back’s against the wall We’ll not surrender You may be young or old There’s no difference at all Just raise your glasses high And sing our song [chorus] [chorus] It was back in ‘79 When we rode the mighty tide The music will go on And never die [chorus] [chorus]

Nobody said it was easy When your back’s to the wall We started with nothing Nothing at all Just me and you against the world That’s how it’s meant to be You can’t escape the simple truth That was our destiny Surviving against the odds Surviving against the odds They never thought we could make it That was never the case We made a vow to each other That nothing could break To stand your ground against the odds That’s what we’ve got to do Together we can face the worst That life can throw at you Surviving against the odds Surviving against the odds Don’t let them drag you down Keep both feet on the ground You know we started with nothing With our backs to the wall We never said it was easy We’ve got nothing at all Just you and me against the world That’s how it’s got to be You can’t escape the simple truth This is our destiny Surviving against the odds Surviving against the odds Against the odds We’re surviving against the odds Surviving against the odds

A telegram came today It’s taking me far away Away from the ones I love I put my faith in God above We march toward the sound of distant guns White fire lighting up the sky We came to fight and die in fields of blood We’ll follow the call to arms I will write you every day Hope our love won’t fade away You give me strength to carry on Until the final day is done This hell, this hell is where we live and die We fall, comrades by our side We pray to make it through another day To follow the call to arms If I die, please don’t forget me If I live, I want to live free We pray to God, these days will end And bring us back safe to your arms I’ve saved all your letters I keep them pressed close to my heart And they won’t stop a bullet They just keep me closer to you than apart We live; we gotta live free We die; remember me We pray to make it through another day To follow the call to arms Telegram came today It’s taking me far away Away from the ones I love I put my faith in God above

I’ve been working like a dog I need some time I’ve been running around in circles Out of my mind I’ve got to pay my bills And get away I’ve had about enough I’m not gonna stay We’re chasing, chasing the bullet We’re chasing, chasing the bullet Chasing the bullet I need a long vacation A little bit of therapy I’m not gonna get it here Until I’m running free The clock keeps ticking on the wall I’m running out of time Just staring into space I need a sign We’re chasing, chasing the bullet We’re chasing, chasing the bullet Chasing the bullet, bullet Everybody’s left I’m on my own I’m climbing up the walls I wanna go home The phone’s ringing off the hook The world is on the line I’m running around in circles Out of my mind We’re chasing, chasing the bullet Chasing, chasing the bullet We’re chasing, chasing the bullet Chasing, chasing the bullet Chasing the bullet Chasing the bullet Chasing the bullet

I pull the throttle back Ready to attack Turn the bow around Into the wind Waiting for the rush Engines on full thrust We shoot a metal bird Into the sky Power screaming, burning Afterburner, afterburner Let the eagle’s cry Launch into the sky Like birds of prey They circle high above you We on the mighty beast The challenger unleashed The messengers of death Will come among you Power screaming, burning Afterburner, afterburner Afterburner, afterburner I pull the throttle back Ready to attack Like birds of prey They circle high above you Waiting for the rush Engines on full thrust The messengers of death Will come among you Power screaming, burning Afterburner, afterburner Afterburner, afterburner Afterburner, afterburner Afterburner, afterburner

Resistance is futile There’s nowhere to hide We’ve run out of options We’ve fought with the tide We wait for tomorrow To see if it comes Defences are pointless It's inevitable Where will we be What will we do When doomsday comes When doomsday comes It's just an illusion Nothing is real We're here for a moment And then disappear Where will we be What will we do When doomsday comes When doomsday comes When doomsday comes Can’t stop the feeling Of being alone Dark and foreboding It's taking its toll The end of tomorrow Will nothing survive To remember the feeling Of being alive Where will we be What will we do When doomsday comes When doomsday comes

You’re like lambs to the slaughter Stand in line and wait your turn I am the destroyer This thing, you quickly learn Have no fear and come with me Enter my reality I am your hybrid curse This is my universe No rest for the wicked No rest till the work is done No rest for the wicked No peace for the chosen ones Take your chance and start to run This game of death has just begun If you die, I still exist This will be your nemesis No rest for the wicked No rest till the work is done No rest for the wicked No peace for the chosen ones Welcome to my sacrifice Have you come to spend the night? Have no fear and come with me Enter my reality In this place where darkness dwells You will face your private hells In my labyrinth of fire I will build your funeral pyre No rest for the wicked No rest till the work is done No rest for the wicked No peace for the chosen ones

Hear the whistle blowin’ Another working day Turn the wheels of power Earn your daily pay The blood and sweat of working men Made this country great To the kings and queens of industry Your lives we celebrate No matter where you’re going Remember where you’ve been It takes me back to a simple life I sing my song – the ballad of the working man The rhythm of the engines Pounding out a song Pulling all together To make this kingdom strong To every man and woman Standin’ tall and proud We dedicate this song to you Rejoice and shout out loud It’s not so complicated Remember where you’re from It takes me back to a simple life I sing my song – the ballad of the working man Working man Another round of whisky Another shot of gin The bar-maid rings ‘last orders’ Get the last ones in The place is full of laughter The glasses full of beer It takes me to a simple life That’s nearly disappeared No matter where you’re going Remember where you’ve been Take me back to a simple life I sing my song – the ballad of the working man The ballad of the working man The ballad of the working man
