Battle Royale

(album: Viribus Unitis - 2021)

Time has come to stand up
And hear the battle's roar
We rise above or fall below
In the chaos of the war
With hordes of undead marching
It's the Empress' turn to strike
To end life for the living
And to birth a brand new Reich

Here the nations rise
Here heroes fight and die
All empires must fall one day
Rome, Carthage and Versailles

On the edge of the night
And the toil of the fight
When united we stand
Divided we fall
See all the beacons alight
When we fight in the Battle Royale
With the curse of the gods
We're the ones who must heed the call
For rise or fall
We live by the sword
And we die by the sword
As we fight in the Battle Royale

I am made of metal
I am the Kaiser of the Reich
And I will end this battle
By fire, blade or pike
What has become of Sisi
My once beloved wife?
A queen of death and misery
Not dead, but not alive

Into darkness now
My kingdom must descend
I will save by sacrifice
And bring this war to end

On the edge of the night
And the toil of the fight
When united we stand
Divided we fall
See all the beacons alight
When we fight in the Battle Royale
With the curse of the gods
We're the ones who must heed the call
For rise or fall
We live by the sword
And we die by the sword
As we fight in the Battle Royale

How did it come to this?
Where did I go amiss?
What is done is done can I right this wrong?
Ride the sky
It's time to fly
Crucify, purify!

The Flying Fortress Figaro falls from the skies
To crush the queen and bring an ending to the lies
Falling down
For the Crown
Falling down
For the Crown

On the edge of the night
And the toil of the fight
When united we stand
Divided we fall
See all the beacons alight
When we fight in the Battle Royale
With the curse of the gods
We're the ones who must heed the call
For rise or fall
We live by the sword
And we die by the sword
As we fight in the Battle Royale

On the edge of the night
And the toil of the fight
When united we stand
Divided we fall
See all the beacons alight
When we fight in the Battle Royale
With the curse of the gods
We're the ones who must heed the call
For rise or fall
We live by the sword
And we die by the sword
As we fight in the Battle Royale
