Lyrics
Escape the soulless Moloch's mask
Wake from delusive dreams
From glorious battles of the past
To hedonistic feasts
A lifetime spent among the brutes
Hyenas, vultures, lions
The leaders' heads be carried through
The corridors in triumph
Slaughter and glory, a master of grim symphonies
Time is the only victor
You can't escape it's siege
Barbarian, barbarian
Wield your blade of bloodstained worth
Barbarian, barbarian
Strike of wrath, bringing peace
Bringing peace to Earth
Bringing peace to Earth
Before the land knew lies and fear
They praised your dark parades
The poetry of clashing steel
Still echoed through the gates
Epochs of wisdom, forged belief
The golden years were yours
Now silence reigns, rot running deep
A plague no crown restores
The dust on your armor, the maestro of your symphonies
But time is the only victor
You can't escape it's siege
Barbarian, barbarian
Wield your blade of bloodstained worth
Barbarian, barbarian
Strike of wrath, bringing peace
Bringing peace to Earth
(Lead) lead by lies in shadowed crowds
(Slay) lambs devoured by paradox applause
(Go) on a leash to the massacre
These wolves that always lived within
Let the slaughter begin
Barbarian, barbarian
Wield your blade of bloodstained worth
Barbarian, barbarian
Strike of wrath, bringing peace
Bringing peace to Earth
Let's bring peace to Earth
