The Vengeful Sword
Vengeance is the law for thee
A million times the blade comes free
Always it ends without a head
The loser decapitated falls over dead
Look into steel blue eyes
From these windows see how you die
Battle rage makes hearts pound
A barbarian answering to the Lord of The Mound
Greatest gift was iron will
Even without weapons it can kill
For a thousand miles deep
It slays the horrors that creep
Wielded by a Northern brute
Exploits sung by bards on their lutes
Thief, mercenary, and many things he has been
And always the those blue steel eyes win
A gunslinger he would have been in modern times
But in the Hyperborean Age he was an avenger of royal crimes
He made even the hardest warriors shiver and shake
When he rode to battle the ground would quake
As hordes of men, monsters, and demons were culled
Blade and axe to the the skull
He possessed the warriors soul
When enraged he would lose control
And become's wars beast
Leaving behind for the carrion quite a feast
A million times the blade comes free
Always it ends without a head
The loser decapitated falls over dead
Look into steel blue eyes
From these windows see how you die
Battle rage makes hearts pound
A barbarian answering to the Lord of The Mound
Greatest gift was iron will
Even without weapons it can kill
For a thousand miles deep
It slays the horrors that creep
Wielded by a Northern brute
Exploits sung by bards on their lutes
Thief, mercenary, and many things he has been
And always the those blue steel eyes win
A gunslinger he would have been in modern times
But in the Hyperborean Age he was an avenger of royal crimes
He made even the hardest warriors shiver and shake
When he rode to battle the ground would quake
As hordes of men, monsters, and demons were culled
Blade and axe to the the skull
He possessed the warriors soul
When enraged he would lose control
And become's wars beast
Leaving behind for the carrion quite a feast
