lyrics

Memorize the prophecy.
It's been foretold and now we're all doomed.
Hand-cuffed in animosity while the oak is still in bloom.
Still in bloom.

We'll see whose fate is sealed.
Bring 'em to the field,
let 'em find their position, hold up their shields.
Wave the axe, draw a sword and make it real.
Judgement day, armageddon, the force revealed.
We'll see whose fate is sealed.

Men fighting for their kingdom with bare hands and broken knees.
Their only purpose in life is this battle until the very last drip of blood is spilled.

The smell of the oak will draw the meek and the broke.
So let's strike a spark cause where there's fire there's smoke

When the hearts freeze.

Spreading the disease 'cross the village and all over the seven seas.
Manics rush, the plague knows no boundaries.
Winter's close but will it really bring a relief.
When the lakes and the hearts freeze.

Neverending mass extinction.
The earth crumbling piece by piece.
Our only chance to survive is solidarity.
Get a grip and prepare for the final strike.

The smell of the oak will draw the meek and the broke.
So let's strike a spark cause where there's fire there's smoke

They circle the crypt welcoming the outcast.
Encourage him to follow the crows and unearth the dead-choir.
The blackening sky beclouds their sanity.
Apathetic.
He's pushing onwards straight through the gates, nonetheless.

We're all gonna break down.
We're all gonna die now.

Neverending mass extinction.
The earth crumbling piece by piece.
Our only chance to survive is solidarity.
Get a grip and prepare for the final strike.

The smell of the oak will draw the meek and the broke.
So let's strike a spark cause where there's fire there's smoke

Memorize the prophecy - it's been foretold.
Memorize the prophecy - and now we're doomed.
Memorize the prophecy - hand-cuffed.
The oak is still in bloom.

Memorize the prophecy.
Memorize the prophecy.
