He was just a gentile man
It was his love to grind He didn't know the fear He never had to hide He loved the glance of metal And the smell of blood The flame of badness burned inside him That was the only thing he had got Genghis Khan Can't you see it's all a lie The time had it made He was a man like you and me His era was his fate He freed his conquered land From the ban of death Freedom to the mongolenation By fanning their wrath Genghis Khan |

Red hot iron heated by living coal
Ready for branding to strike his goal The torrid cast iron marks the leather To banish the renegade from now on forever Many relocated all across the land Together we've got the power in our hands We're strong enough to fight mendacious laws We've got the wrath, 'cause we are Branded & exiled Together we can stand the night Rabbits would sink into the morass of unjustice They try to deliver it from the deep black abyss Our shell of wrath explodes, they're winding like an ill That day we're ready to make those bastards kneel Many relocated all across the land Together we've got the power in our hands We're strong enough to fight mendacious laws We've got the wrath, 'cause we are Branded & exiled Together we can stand the night |

A scarred and rakish seadog, mysterious opacity
Walks the grove, the phantom's home Cuts down firs where men would flee Wooden beams and mortal, the timber shack is taking shape The tavern's baptized "Black Hand Inn" A blackened hand shines on the plate Welcome to the tavern in the grove Where ancient spirits live and rove The tavern has been opened, the owner is Mr. John Xenir A rumour says he has second sight A chance to prove restrains their fear Night by night revealing, stares into his crystalball Telling tales of past and future When man was made and man will fall Welcome to the tavern in the grove Where ancient spirits live and rove The moon is rising high foreboding what the night will bring The crystal-ball reveals the hidden truth at the "Black Hand Inn" The priest is getting furious from the "godless" tales he told Steps right in made a cross Condemn the seadog and says he's bold John says "your a liar! Long ago I was burned by priests See my black hand, yes I'll reveal That you're the devil and you're the beast!" Welcome to the tavern in the grove Where ancient spirits live and rove The moon is rising high foreboding what the night will bring The crystal-ball reveals the hidden truth at the "Black Hand Inn" Welcome to the tavern in the grove Where ancient spirits live and rove The moon is rising high foreboding what the night will bring The crystal-ball reveals the hidden truth at the "Black Hand Inn" Their power's built by lies and flying high on evil's wing The dark side was exposed by the old seadog at the "Black Hand Inn" |

The privateer is watching, the moon provides the only light
Roaring winds are blowing, a flag appears out of the night Guns are spitting fire, the cannonball tears up the rail The vessel's changing course, the thunderstorm blows up the sail A furious fight is raging, red-hot cannon's shooting hard Ironballs are flying, tearing all the planks apart His allseeing spy-glass is aiming at the sea No mariner has the slightest chance to flee His crystal ball's revealing where he has to steer He fights the covered evil without a fear Oh, the privateer The sea-dog's realmed in legends, it said he had the second sight His assignment must be holy, he fought the fight with power and pride The key to ancient wisdom, the power to have seen the truth He'll return to holy ground, where his tortured soul had died in youth His allseeing spy-glass is aiming at the sea No mariner has the slightest chance to flee His crystal ball's revealing where he has to steer He fights the covered evil without a fear Oh, the privateer His allseeing spy-glass is aiming at the sea No mariner has the slightest chance to flee His crystal ball's revealing where he has to steer He fights the covered evil without a fear Oh, the privateer |

He was born at the shore of Greenhock in the year 1645 Ran away at the age of fourteen, to flee from his soul-killing life He signed on to sail the wild-winds But he worked down his hands and his knees He stood his test on the waters, so they said "He was bred to the sea" In 1697, the "Adventurer..." was setting its sails With the letter of marque and reprisal, Kidd was prepared for his trail They sailed the sea with the mission, to hunt down "Tew" and "Long Ben" A serious riot was rising, so Kidd struck down one of his men And he died! Blue-blooded men they fell from grace Piranhas eating their own They sacrificed at the altar of lies So fate took its course in the ballad of William Kidd The "Adventurer..." returned to her hometown, Kidd was forced to defence They charged him with looting and murder his patrons and generous friends He'd left his crew at St. Thomas, to guard his honour from shame But the lords they lied like a trooper, not to lose their own heads in the game Blue-blooded men they fell from grace Piranhas eating their own They sacrificed at the altar of lies So fate took its course in the ballad of William Kidd The lords testified, their unholy lies, to save their own heads from the gallows They sacrificed Kidd, they took him for a ride that conspiratorial fellows They judged him and they found him guilty of piracy of the high seas Betraying men of honour, you know lie and cheat as they please A case of judicial murder caused the death of a seafaring man Slanderous bunch of liars, to hell your souls will be damned Blue-blooded men they fell from grace Piranhas eating their own They sacrificed at the altar of lies So fate took its portentous course. What a shame! In the ballad of William Kidd (Dedicated to the memory of William Kidd) |

Victory
The gods of past and future, returning from the sky Defenders of the holy, they are soaring on high All slaves of evils' kingdom, dropping down like flies The final raging battle that's when the evil dies The poison of illusion, the world falls asleep The evil reigns its kingdom by cunning and deceit The force of seduction, chaos in the game Man is trapped in blindness, praising Dorkas' name Darkness falls and light will rise The force of judgement finally strikes Victory Selfdestructive mankind's like wax in his hands War and plain destruction are fit to set an end A vulnerable system to serve the evil's way Raising all its madness until the final day [Pre] [Chorus] Terror reigns in the prophecy "Babylon" will fall, so plain to foresee A nightmare rules the mirage of gold Slipping to damnation by trying to hold [Leadbreak Rolf] The rivalry is dying, the longawaited end Destruction of all evil, no power could defend Dorkas' crown is falling, he's melting down in pain His kingdom falls to pieces, dying in the flame [Pre] [Chorus] |

At the day of his coronation
He sank down in deepest dispair Hundreds of russians were dying By rapture, the sun and its glare After several years of waiting He came, the heir to the throne Their son was born as a bleeder His parents so sad and alone The tsarina felt what was coming A vision that darkened her soul The tsar was given a warning Intrigues so darkened and cold Destiny called, the empire fell The two-headed eagle that died Bullets of hate were erasing their lifes No prayer and nobody cried [Leadbreak Rolf] In their darkest hour the "staretz" appeared He saved Aleksej from death Rasputins' power, a dissolate life Sentenced to take his last breath The world was on war, drowning in flames Gasbombs, horror and death [Leadbreak Thilo] The reds brought on revolution He decided to take his discharge But they placed him under detention The red star, its idols should march The Romanows took up their cross The desaster was to foresee On the 16th July 1918 They were slaughtered, a whole dynasty |
