Sangtekst: Manowar. Gods Of War Live. The Oath.

:
Burning embers of the second death will come in the night
Priests and kings, the alpha and omega, poison bites
False prophets and deceivers swing from the trees
Now dawn the age of birds drunk with blood like lepers with disease

Lord of the sky
Mercury, the guide
Lord of the underworld
I swear the sacred rite
I will crucify
Slay them with their tribe
Hear my war cry

They'll find no sanctuary hidden in their ancestral halls
Let loose the knot that binds the spirit and the flesh - let it fall!
For only courage and heroism linger after death
So, hold fast thy sword, rejecting pain, feel the dragon's breath

Lord of the sky
Mercury, the guide
Lord of the underworld
I swear the sacred rite
I will crucify
Slay them with their tribe
Hear my war cry

I've sworn the oath
I've sworn the oath
I've sworn the oath

[Solo]

Lord of the sky

False prophets and deceivers swing from the trees
Now dawn the age of birds drunk with blood like lepers with disease
