Lyrics

Warlord (Do Or Die, 1988)
Snatches a victim; slashes 'till death
Takes a human life and decapitates their heads
Throws the axes forward; watches them die
Blinded by hatred ... They're doomed to die


Cutting humans one by one
Leaving to die in their blood
Grabs another body - the knife sinks in
Spiteful fury ... To live a life of sin


The need to fight all rules him in every way
Warlord lives to kill every day
The blood on his blood on his hand satisfies barbaric lust
Warlord soon to strike


Warriors of death dressed to fight
Taking lives and destroying the night
Swinging the swords straight from hell
Taken by madness... Conquers the citadel


(Solo - Brett)
(Solo - Ron)


Watching lives fade away
Crushing underfoot those who pray
No regrets - torture will last
Taste his blade ... From the past


Hellbound (Do Or Die, 1988)
Merciless men - hateful victims 
doing battle in the night 
patriots rally to the cause 
some just living to fight 
few will win, but countless die 
they will never see the sun rise 
steal from the dead, desecrate 
dead eyes have no sight 


(Chorus) 
Hellbound 
Hellbound 
Hellbound 


countless souls falling to hell 
eternally living their sins 
a life of death and butchery 
all watrriors pay in the end 
blade strikes home - the world is black 
cannot evade the capture 
satan loves men who kill 
and lusts eternal torture 


(Chorus) 


More to fight - the need to kill 
you're just the devil's token 
no time to turn wrong to right 
the hourglass is broken 


(Solo - Brett) 
(Solo - Ron) 
(Solo - Brett) 
(Solo - Ron) 


(Chorus)


Militia Of Death (Do Or Die, 1988)
Music: Ron Eriksen, James Lareau 
Lyrics: Ron Eriksen 


our sawtooth blades shines brightly in the morning sun 
together are the power - this world ours before long 
on a mission of hatred, we will trust on man 
fierce as wolves we fear no one for a madman leads our clan 


no time to catch your breath tonight for you will get no mercy 
our superhuman colossal force surges unleashed desire 
like the chariot of the reaper we will leave a bloody slaughter 
now move on to conquer more - onward, enslave the virgin daughter 


(Chorus) 
Militia of death 
Militia of death 
Militia of death 
Militia of death 


splitting hemlets, splitting skulls, drinking the blood of ancients 
slaves to their crown - to their throne - fall to spiteful power 
our instruments of torture meet soldiers with their deaths 
we take adandoned weapons - the dying take last breaths 


(Chorus) 


(Solo - Brett) 
(Solo - Ron) 


to their thrust is our parry - assaults come less and less 
the enemy hurt and dying - from our blade's caress 
the land we walk is brains and blood - full with mangled corpses 
opponents of divine militia fall to hated forces 


we have no friends, just victims - our enemies all gone 
together are the power - this world is ours and strong 
like the clash of thunder we did trust no man 
fierce as wolves we fear no one, for madness is our clan


Prelude/Scavenger (Do Or Die, 1988)
Music: Brett Eriksen 
Lyrics: Matt Jordan 
the stench of roten meat 
lies in the air 
wreaks the smell of death 
corpses bloody stare 


eyes of glassy blood 
lurking like the wind 
waiting for another life 
another life to end 


dreams of blood and bowels 
send sensations high 
no meat to be found 
nowhere prey to die 
for scavengers wander 
wander across the land 
scanning for abandoned kill 
scourching what they can 


temptaions beyond extremes 
existing but none shall ever see 
sucking bone untill there's none 
no wasted piece of meat 


no time to feed their young 
wait for tortured cries 
a helpless victim 
is the one that dies 


(Solo - Brett) 
(Solo - Ron) 


scrapes the carcass clean 
blood is everywhere 
consumes every morsel 
they'd rather die than share


Valhalla (Do Or Die, 1988)
Music: Brett Eriksen 
Lyrics: Ron Eriksen, Matt Jordan 
the viking lives - never dies 
he is born with eyes beyond eyes 
slashing back with only his sword 
not slaying to be adore 
the Viking needs to conquer all 
until the day that he will fall 
he will perish at the gods' command 
but he must die with his sword in his hand 


to go to Valhala - the promised world 
where every weapon shines like pearl 
battle rages night and day 
endless combat - the Viking's dream 


finally arrived to see 
at last - the land of the free 
valhalla 
valhalla 
valhalla 


we live our lives born and free 
we will die for victory 
never complete untill all is ours 
sail away at the midnight hour 
it's time to go - yes, now we know 
the gods call us - to battle we go 
never look back - no second thoughts 
no remorse for the men we have fought 


and go to valhalla - the promised world 
where every weapon shines like pearl 
battles rages night and day 
endless combat - the viking's dream

Burning From Within (Do Or Die, 1988)
Music: Brett Eriksen, Ron Eriksen 
Lyrics: Mat Jordan, Ron Eriksen 


eight hour hibernation 
in a deep trance to lay 
brain sedation causes 
existence on a diferent plane 
a body which is evil 
inside deserves to burn 
dreaming through the final day 


blitzkrieg erosion 
body fluids evaporate 
carbon ash replaces 
moist and mortal flesh 
intestinal eruption 
brittle bones splinter and break 
corpse remaining falls 
floor and form will mesh 


(Pre-Chorus) 
flesh dripping flames 
pain so intense 
cone of stench by name 
multiplying cells 
divide and ignite 
like a cancer aflame 


(Chorus) 
Burning 
burning 
burning 


burning 
burning 
burning 


(Solo - Brett) 
(Solo - Ron) 


somnolence is ended 
or maybe lasts eternally 
body to ashes; ashes to dust 
what once were eyes now cannot see 
a soul of goodness in a man insane 
fair about to turn 
finally took the only way out 
the brain the last to burn 


(pre-chorus) 
(chorus)


Berseker (Do Or Die, 1988)
Music: Brett Eriksen 
Lyrics: Matt Jordan 


waiting for the call of war 
anxious for the call of war 
set to destroy massivelly 
kill and burn and kill some more 


on the sea of hate 
any land will do 
victims now await 
berserker conquer you 


set to banish all mankind 
catch and steal bodies within 
we thrive on the taste of blood 
so the slaughter now begins 


me will die first 
torture under will 
women just for children 
berserker love the kill 


(Solo - Brett) 
(Solo - Ron) 


we grasp our batle axes 
head where cities lie 
killing everyone in sight 
search on for more to die 
kill again we can feel it now 
all opur rage is from the core 
violence is what powers us 
charge forth to kill once more 


(Solo - Brett)




Killer Unleashed (Do Or Die, 1988)
Music: Brett Eriksen 
Lyrics: Ron Eriksen 


demonic horror spells the end of your world 
it was born in the darkness of ignorance 
no swift death for you - only sufering will do 
your murder will be long and torturous 


a young boy you will never know 
pull the key in the lock and opened the door 
killer unleashed - death to you all 
crippled and struggling, the world will fall 
hellbent destruction to rip and tear 
shadowed monstrosity soon to be there 
created by evil, released on this night 
the first became last and the dead came alive 


(Chorus) 
the evil upon the earth, demons arise 
devour your body and soul 
when the end is near, there's no disguise 
doomed to the depths below 
skies are blazing, all hell break loose 
the world is at its end 
souls plummet to hell, destruction begins 
the killer is unleashed 


(Solo - Brett) 


i usurp your knowledge all the while 
in the fire of chaos you will meet your end 
lo, i am your destruction 
and i am immortal - for the dead cannot die twice 


the incantaions utered by one 
set forth the evil that spares no one 
killer stalking all form of life 
even the wicked will feel its knife 
always expanding from all it consumes 
unleashed if is trully death in full bloom 
the only escape died with the boy 
revelations of a world destroyed 


(Chorus)


Do Or Die (Do Or Die, 1988)
Music: Brett Eriksen 
Lyrics: Ron Eriksen 


i know you're taken with a burden 
and you don't know your head from your tail 
but if you're gonna do it, do it right 
you've got to hit the head of the nail 


(Chorus) 
if it ain't worth dying for it ain't worth doing 
aren't you tired of waiting in line? 
take us to the top or straight to hell 
do or die 


make it or break it - that's our battle call 
that's the way you've got to live your time 
if you won't do it now, don't do it at all 
wasting days is a moral crime 


(Chorus) 


(Solo - Brett) 
(Solo - Ron) 


make it or break it - that's our battle call 
give it your best or you'll fail 
if you won't do it now, don't do it at all 
you've got to hit the head of the nail 


(Chorus) 


(Chorus)
White Death (Man Of Straw, 1989)
The stench of blood will permeate a thousand miles around
Know that the strongest one will be there within seconds
Gracefully horrifying, the fin cuts the water
Viciuos selachii is ready to devour


(Solo: Ron)


Tail pushing left and right, a living flesh disposal
An unfelt touch against its grain would shred a hand to ribbins
Megatons of crushing power exerted on three hundred points
Conveyor belt of teeth makes sure that all will feel...


(Chorus)
Time and tme again
He must prove his formidability
Preying on the unsuspecting ones
Only need to masticate
White Death
This has stood the test of centuries
Preying on the unsuspecting ones
Only need to masticate
White Death


(solo: Brett, solo: Ron)


His eyes roll back and upper jaw is thrust out and
Cutting skin so easily and thrashing side to side so that
Now the wound inflicted will finish started work so he's
Circling the bleeding prey until it is anemic


(Solo: Brett)


Foolish man lowers his steel shark cage and
Attempting to control what he cannot control
While a devil that creates its own hell waits below
Its surroundings become the feared domain...


Case Of The Stubborns (Man Of Straw, 1989)
Human life expentancy
No longer man a century
There are those that would
Cheat death if they could
Most who die just pass along
Assuming there's no choice at all
Some just do not realize
That there is sight in dead eyes


Th illusion of life
Created by ignorance
The end of life
Prolonged by chance
Death is cheated
By one man's insistance
Death depleted
Delayed advance


Expiration date is spent
And blood in veins turned sour
Many days ago we passed
Supposed final hours
Unused organs start to swell
Limbs begin to stiffen
Though life continues
Death advances
Avoidance of oblivion


(Solo: Ron)


(Chorus)


Grandpa Tolliver
Passed away one night
But he was like no other
He just refused to die
That stubborn old man
Not looking death in the eye


(Solo: Ron, Brett)


Death ripens, flesh rots
Rigor mortis, cane to walk
Animation from belief
Lips are blue
Still they speak


Denial is a medication
Oh to die, end our frustration
Vital functions cease to work
When will be believe?


(Solo:Ron)


(Chorus)
