Avenger Lyrics by Amon Amarth

Avenger Lyrics

    My pale face face glows in the light of fire
    My hollow eyes see but cannot see
    I stare deep into the glowing inferno
    The loss i feel is breaking me

    I heard their screams
    Through flaming walls
    Walls, i could not tear down
    I could not help them

    Helplessly i watched my life go up in flames

    I pull the sword from the glowing fire
    And hammer-beat in on the anvil

    Forging it with rage and hate
    I will seal my enemy's fate

    I ingrave the blade with magic runes
    And summon gods by sacrifice in blood
    Pure blue hate shines within this sword
    His magic sword will cut only once

    No sword has ever been like this one
    The avenger is its name

    Now my sworn enemy
    Vengeance will belong to me
    A year has gone by
    Now my sworn enemy
    It's your turn to die
    It's your turn to die!

    The sword cuts through his throat
    His head tumbles to the ground
    The headless body lays gently down
    Down to sleep in a pool of blood

    The avenger has lost its shine
    The magic is now drained
    Dull and useless it rests in my hand
    Its purpose is soon fulfilled

    Now hate is gone but emptiness remains
    So i turn the blade around
    And run it through my stomach veins
    And i fall to the ground
