Let's go off to war
I don't want to be a child no more
(You'll fight, you'll cry…I'll watch you die)
(The foolish pride within your eyes)
Frosted steel, tearing through skin
Hammer smashing bones within
(Scream for blood, Ten Thousand strong)
(Your not evil, your just wrong)
It's my duty, it's my life
Crush the weak, hold the strife
(Chorus)
Ragnarok (Dreaming) Souls of the Dead (Screaming)
Phantom Tears (Singing) Tears of Men (Bringing)
Man and Beast (Together) Laid in the ground (Forever)
Terrified (Dire) Not a sound (Liar)
(The Fog rolls between the hills)
(With the screams of those you've killed)
Within the woods we hear the drums
Death is approaching, let them come
Listen to our hearts, loud and clear
Thundering together without Fear
Here they come, like the force of hell
Fire in there eyes like the legends tell
Stand our ground, ready to fight
(Many will bleed this darkest night)
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
Stop, (Don't leave me hear)
I'll fight, (I'll drown in tears)
I'm strong, (You're killing me)
My love, (Why can't you see?)
Stand face to face with a Leviathan
Monstrous Demons from far away lands
They crash into our shields with vicious force
I feel the blood running down my sword
This is my war, my people, my pride
Slay these giants then to Hell we'll ride
Raise my Shield against a heavy hammers smash
It falls to the ground, the hammer hits my chest
Laying in the dirt, looking up to the sky
I'm coming Valhalla, he brings the hammer high
As he brings it down, I feel Honour and Pride
I join my brothers, together we ride
(Chorus fades out)
Author notes
This song was written by my band, Guardians of Siren.
I sing the standard parts, a very masculin and angry tone with an intense rythym and striking power
Carmen Sings the parts within brackets, she has a very soft and angelic tone, she sounds to be almost in tears.
I Hope you enjoy this, it's even better when put to music which I will also be posting soon as well, so you can all look forward to hearing this soon.

Short of the line minumum!
99 was the minumum. I do like the lyricism of this and will have to consider it a finalist based on its poeticism.

I love it! There's no other way to put it. Fantastic

It's very dark and realistic. It would make a good song. I like the way you use your word choice. Could it possibly be saying something about the present? Hm... it made me think, and so few songs make us do that now a days. it takes a good lyricist to write songs that make people think, and they're some of my favorite songs ever. might want to scan for grammatical errors. In general, though, it is very well worded and I applaud you for making me think.
