The Cymryd
05:07

Your people sent us out to die
instead of giving us the rope
Saying our suffering
is how we will atone
Believing they’re superior
and kept their hands clean
They didn’t think we’d survive
And turn into beasts
Your carelessness is your biggest mistake
One we have learned and will not repeat
Red stains our hands as you choke on your blood
We watch as you die, certain that we’re done
We have grown in numbers
and consumed by our rage
Waiting in the shadows
until we found our prey
You thought you were safe
and that cost you dear
We will take all you have
Your life will end here
Your carelessness is your biggest mistake
One we have learned and will not repeat
Red stains our hands as you choke on your blood
We watch as you die, certain that we’re done
Watch as your life comes to an end
By the ones your people created
The price of your hubris has finally come
It is time for our hunger to be sated
You thought we were a myth
but you see us with your eyes
Far away from safety
into our clutches to die
Soon we will parade you
and hold you up high
Your kingdom will know to fear us
as they see your head on a spike
Your carelessness is your biggest mistake
One we have learned and will not repeat
Red stains our hands as you choke on your blood
We watch as you die, certain that we’re done
We’ve set our eyes on your new budding kingdom
Take your last breath knowing no one will help them
You’ve thought yourselves to be without any fault
We are the Cymryd, you created us to make you fall
Make you fall
You took our lives, we will take yours

To Death We Will March
05:05
|

A horde is charging this way
We’re too few to fight back
No one will answer our pleas
No allies can stop the attack
Our impending doom is coming
To destroy everything we have built
There’s no use reasoning
Blood will be spilled
There’s no hope but we won’t back down
We fight for our lives and for the crown
To death we will march
Gather up all arms
Rejoice this final night
Tomorrow we will fight
At first light we venture
To the field of battle we will go
If they want to conquer
Then they must work for their goal
To the last we will stand
Until we no longer draw in breath
May our weapons stay in hand
And deliver a merciless death
There’s no hope but we won’t back down
We fight for our lives and for the crown
To death we will march
Gather up all arms
Rejoice this fight
Today we die
We are one tenth of their force
The horns bellow out for war
This is the end of our course
To their throats we plunge our swords
Magical blasts quickly soar
Bodies are maimed and scorched
The forest is seeped with gore
From bodies, heads and limbs are torn
There’s no hope but we won’t back down
We fight for our lives, in blood they will drown
To death we have marched
Still we swing our arms
We may not win this fight
But alone we won’t die
Alone we won’t die
Alone we won’t die
Alone we won’t die
Alone we won’t die

The Corruption

It's all going to end
They are wearing us down
There's no use giving in
We can't stand our ground
One by one we fall
We won't give up now
Longer we must stall
There may be a way out
Run to the woods
It’s our only chance
We will use these woods
To bring the Cymryd to deliverance
Protect our king
Someone’s made a plan
Long live the king
The Cymryd will be wiped from the land
A few must stay and fight
They will be the sacrifice
Hold them back
The rest can get out
Keep them back
We must stand our ground
Protect the mages
Let them say their chants
A few more seconds
Soon it will all end
We will give our lives
Our enemies will die this night
One by one light leaves their eyes
The Cymryd clawing to end their lives
The mage chants their final lines
Dropping dead, then consumed by blinding light
Forbidden magic rips the air apart
From within ghastly creatures quickly dart
The Cymryd run in terror but don’t get far
Screams are cut off as they're torn apart
Their attacks won't keep the spirits at bay
Twisted haunted creatures beyond decay
Nothing is left as the mist clears away
All we wanted was to be safe
What have we done

The Resurgence
06:04
|
|||
Relentless horde of ghastly beasts
Nightmares unseen for fifteen years
From a time when we thought
we wouldn’t see another day
Haunted and scarred from our deeds
The Myrewood is no longer what it used to be
For us to defeat our enemies
the innocence of the forest had to pay
We have brought this on ourselves
To live, we unleashed hell
This Resurgence is coming after us
And we don’t how it can be undone
The elves said it’s useless to attack
But we knew from many years back
They warned us of our sins
From that wretched night many years ago
We thought we wouldn’t see this day
Hoped after that night, we’d be safe
But we traded one enemy for another
this one from the unknown
We have brought this on ourselves
To live, we unleashed hell
This Resurgence is coming after us
And we don’t how it can be undone
From the mists of the Myrewood
A pale creature comes walking forth
Covered in twisted faces of agony
Bringing our destruction beneath its feet
Soldiers flee from where they stood
Magical fire flies with no recourse
Out of its mouth comes a thousand screams
And we know we face our reckoning
We must pay for what we’ve done
This endless cycle must have an end
