War's Come to Our Shores

Free the world of chaos and decay
We worship noble gods, we’ll not fear death this day!
They come with fire,
They come with hate
Never before
They’ve breached our walls
Free the world from madness and dismay
Their broken god will fail and castaway
They come with fire,
They come with hate
Never before
We’ve lost at war
On and on.
Our ships have conquered
We’re no slaves
Howls in the twilight, screams of war
These are our white shores,
They won’t take our land,
Archers man the walls
Make them slaves
These are our great walls,
Let’s break them this day
War’s come to our shores
War’s come to our shores
War’s come to our shores
Free the world from darkness and despair
The moon up high will guide our swords today!
They come with fire,
They come with hate
Never before
We’ve lost at war
Screams in the twilight, ghosts of war
These are our shores,
They won’t take our land,
Archers man the walls
Make them slaves
These are our shores,
Let’s break them this day
War’s come to our shores
War’s come to our shores
War’s come to our shores
To our noble gods,
Help protect our land
War’s come to our shores
War’s come to our shores
Praise our sacred lords
Help protect our land
War’s come to our shores
War’s come to our shores
We must burn their walls
Cast them into flame
Sail now onto war
Here be dragonlords

The Last Dragon Warriors

For every day that we are here
We prepare to take the world
With our ships we can sail to the sun
For years we’ve sat and we’ve decayed
But today with stand as one
A mighty army, hail to the lords
Stand or fall, we’ll wait ‘till the sun sets
Stand or fall, we must take their walls
Rise, stand tall, we’ll first take their waters
Stand or fall, they must be destroyed
For every day that we are here
We are blessed to be the ones
Who will bathe in glory, eternal sons
Though we have sat and we've decayed
We have strength to win the war
A noble army, hail to the lords
Stand or fall, we’ll wait 'till the sun sets
Hail the lords, we must take their walls
Rise, stand tall, we’ll first take their waters
Stand or fall, they must be destroyed
We rise, the last of the fallen
We fight, the dragons are calling
Here we stand, the last dragon warriors
Fear our wrath, the great dragon warriors
We'll never give in!
We rise, the last of the fallen
We fight, the dragons are calling
We rise, the last of the fallen
We fight, the dragons are calling
Here we stand, the last dragon warriors
Fear our wrath, the great dragon warriors
We'll never give in!

Ancient Waters

I sense their fear,
I see red, I see darkness
Our fleet must be bold,
Must have strength, take no chances
The dragons await,
They're but men, take no chances
Their ships can't be old,
But their strength must be answered
For long years we have set sail...
Arrows fly! Sails high!
Now this land we must defend...
Dragons fly! Kill them! fight!
The dragons are weak,
They've no strength, they've honour
The flags sail high but no wings way up high
The dragons await,
They're but men, take no chances
Their ships can't be old,
But their strength must be answered
For long years we have set sail...
Arrows fly! Sails high!
Now this land we must defend...
Dragons fly! Kill them! fight!
They have won, our fleet gone...
Battle lost, our time's come!
Our forefathers ruled these waters,
Their great ships prevailed...
We have sailed these ancient waters and we will again
Dragonlords will tam these waters,
Beasts will rise this day,
But we have lost these ancient waters,
We will sail again!

War at Dawn
04:18
|
|||
|
Eyes wide, I have awoken
Black, bruised, body shaking
A great defeat is vivid
Into the darkness,
A king on his throne
A beast with a curse
And a sword of rusted steel
Wait! Don’t kill me!
I must live
They must know
It’s war at dawn…
Now state your name!
You want to live?
Tell of my curse
Go spread my word
Eyes wide, still alive
Dragons high, roam the skies
I prey, the beasts will pay!
Into the darkness,
A king on his throne
A beast with a curse
And a sword of rusted steel
Wait! Don’t kill me!
I must live
They must know
It’s war at dawn…
Now state your name!
You want to live?
Tell of my curse
Go spread my word
I must fly across the sea, I must travel far and wide
It seems fate has summoned me, now I quest across the sea
War at dawn!
You have my word, I will set you all free
Cursed you’ll no longer be

The King Under the Sea
03:20
|
|||
|
They say that there's a king under the sea,
a coward and a madman with a fleet.
The men they say, he fled across the sea,
but the gods they cursed him and his whole damned fleet.
He's the king under the sea,
He's the lord the dragons fear!
He's part man, part beast, part dragon!
He's the king under the sea,
a curse? our saviour, or beast?
He's part man, part beast, part dragon!
The story goes he sat upon the throne,
a creature crossed with dragon flesh and bone.
And the fleet remain still loyal to their king,
but their lives are cursed their souls can never sleep.
He's the king under the sea,
He's the lord the dragons fear!
He's part man, part beast, part dragon!
He's the king under the sea,
a curse? our saviour, or beast?
Life your curse, take to the sea....
Dragons fly, this night...
They seek war, to fight!
Lift your curse, shine bright...
Life your curse, take to the sea...
They say that there's a king under the sea,
a coward and a madman with a fleet
He's the king under the sea,
He's the lord the dragons fear!
He's part man, part beast, part dragon!
He's the king under the sea,
a curse? our saviour, or beast?
He's part man, part beast, part dragon!
He's part man, part beast, part dragon!

The Long Road
04:54
|

|
Though I have been freed,
The world can’t see
The weight I feel,
It’s crushing me
Honour my kin
Honour the sea
long road ahead, I must go.
Change the world, set us free,
From raging gods
I must not fail, cast to the sea, this grey old world, must be free
So I take, the path,
The great long road, onto the South
I must not fail…
I must not fail…
Through the raging sea,
The hills of old,
The mountain peaks,
Where dragons roam
Carry on,
I must make haste, head to the south
I must not fail, cast to the sea, this grey old world, must be free
So I take, the path,
The great long road, onto the South
I must not fail…
Kingdom of old,
With the towers so bold
I won’t rest, I won’t sleep
The king waits for me
Kingdom of old,
With the towers so bold
I won’t rest, I won’t sleep
With my sword,
On I must go!
A hoard of Northmen halt my path,
Take me hostage
But wait they too must fight this war
War at Dawn

Turning the Tide
03:32
|

|
An army sails on
With the ocean at their feat
They bring war to my shores
They’ve one purpose
Claim our waters
Far to the north,
A great host without a fleet
With swords made of steel
They’ve one order
Slay our army
There’s an army north,
Marching hard across our lands,
They were born for battle,
They were bred for war
Fly into the sun,
We won't be slaves to evil men
Turning the tide,
We must ride,
Face the Dragonlords
The curse of the old king
He’s part man and part beast
But he will heed the call
Lift their famed curse
Take back the sea
For we will march to war
Meet our kinsmen on the beach
A red battle will unfold
Show no mercy
They’ve no honour
High up in the sky
Mighty dragons fly
Seeking glory in folklore
We must sail before the great storm
High up in the sky
Raging dragons fly
Seeking blood in a great war
We must sail before the great storm

Take to the Sea
03:28

The Shaman spoke to me
Told me of my destiny
The Northmen march to war
The dragons still can fall
For our great ancient city
Lets not delay
Pray, we won't go astray
Come now, we must go
We must not fail now
Make haste, on we go
Lets take to the sea!
A small ship in the port
To take us onward forth
Our quest takes to the sea
My fate is known to me
For our great ancient city
Lets not delay
Pray, we won't go astray
Come now, we must go
We must not fail now
Make haste, on we go
Lets take to the sea!
There's an army
Marching Onward
Make the pact now
There's no option
Come now, we must go
We must not fail now
Make haste, on we go
Lets take to the sea!
Come now, we must go
We must not fail now
Make haste, on we go
Lets take to the sea!

The Great Shadow
05:22
|

|
Look North beyond our walls, the great feared dragon fleet
Draw swords, we must be strong, we must defend our keep
Across the world, a great shadow rises
Darkness creeps over the sun
Across the world we must live in hope and break the shadow
Beyond the hills, brings the great shadow
Fight for the glory of the gods
Light in the sky will guide our path
Fight to be free, to be free!
Fight for the glory of the gods
Light in the sky will guide our path
Glory to be, to be free!
Rise, Stand tall,
the great shadow
Save the world today!
We have prepared for war, now it’s come to our shores
Stand tall, refuse to fall, they won’t breach our walls
Across the world, a great shadow rises
Darkness creeps over the sun
Across the world we must live in hope and break the shadow
Beyond the hills, brings the great shadow
Fight for the glory of the gods
Light in the sky will guide our path
Fight to be free, to be free!
Fight for the glory of the gods
Light in the sky will guide our path
Glory to be, to be free!
Do not turn,
Do not fear,
We must face the dark great shadow
Do not turn,
Do not fear,
We will crush the shadow
Do not turn,
Do not fear,
We must face the dark great shadow
Do not turn,
Do not fear,
We will fight to save the world
Fight for the glory of the gods
Light in the sky will guide our path
Fight to be free, to be free!
Fight for the glory of the gods
Light in the sky will guide our path
Glory to be, to be free!

Here Be Dragonlords
08:30
|
|||
|
The night is deep black with the cold
Grey mists stalk our kingdom of old
Ships creep in dark with the wolves
I fear that this night we will meet our end
Howls low and deep in the distance
An evil creeps onto our bay
They say there’s an aged old shaman
He came here to guide our way
For the Glory of Vale!
Northmen we will take these walls!
The Dragons will make them fall
For the Glory of Vale!
Draw swords we will break them all
We honour the oath we have sworn
A curse has been laid on us this day
We must find a way!
Northmen we must slay them all
Slay them for the dragonlords
Men come we will draw blood first this day
We will find a way!
The great storm’s here!
A mighty Inferno
The king he is sat on his old throne
The shaman demands his attention
He’ll lift his curse
But first he must sail
Take his great fleet sail to vale
Hope restored, a battle waits
The king he laughs
He knows his fate
The old fleet roars
They sail again
A great battle awaits
Sail this day!
We go to war and we will be cursed no more, we taste freedom
The dragons soar in the distance but we aren’t afraid, we taste freedom
Hope is restored
But we can’t delay
Come now my great lord, and cast away
Ships are ahead, the feared dragon fleet
It’s them who will burn!
It’s them who will flee!
The twilight calls
The mists retreat
It’s them who’ll burn!
It’s them who’ll flee!
We go to war
We’ll claim the sea
The moon will guide our steel!
Sail this day!
We go to war and we will be cursed no more, we taste freedom
The dragon soar in the distance but we aren’t afraid, we taste freedom
The fire burns but these men don’t weep
The curse is strong, they must be freed
The day’s not won we must carry on
Until the shores can be washed of blood
The days not won
So we push on
Their fleet is lost
The Northmen gone
The days not won
So we push on
Their fleet is lost
The Northmen gone
I am here to lift my curse
Your death I see
I will be free
I’ll strike and cast you from this world this day
Taste my blade
The stars shine bright
A burning light
The battle’s won
This day is ours
The calming storm
An age reborn
Over the hills
Across the seas
We’ll say that here be Dragonlords

What a fantastic record, great riffs, with memorable songs and when you finish the album you want to listen to it all again, at least I did. The vocals are the highlight for me and is what grabbed my attention initially, damn good stuff.
