- Story behind this song: Once upon a night, Pandora spreads her Torat cards to be revealed. one by one, her fate is sealed. The seven princes I hear, are soon to be near. For when the clock strikes 3, will the time be done, an inverted cross and a goat will be second to none.
My Song (Lyrics and Chords)
Chord progression: Em, D, C
One upon a night, Pandora spreads her Torat cards to be revealed. one by one, her fate is sealed. The seven princes I hear, are soon to be near. For when the clock strikes 3, will the time be done, an inverted cross and a goat will be second to none
Verse: drums+singing 90 bpm
The coming of age approaches as the hourglass continues to drip.
Awakening the demons that lurk within the mist
A full red moon rises as we walk along the old forest road.
Where whomever wanders is to be consumed by He who follows.
chorus: 6/8 time, 130 BPM, tremello picking on guitars no bass
Walk on the prince’s alter we shall all hail the King,
For all who oppose him shall feel the wrath of vain
Wake from the dead all who shall rise
Then we go destroy the ones with pride
The struggle of man will reach demise
Forever will our army be dead and bide
Verse: 4/4 time, 170 bpm, downstrum and kick drum
As we swim through the deep waters of truth, we realize the true meaning of tomorrow,
To old helheim we journey towards, we turn away the light that shields us.
One by one, the princes of hell come to take their tribute
Leviathan prepares to feast for he is famished
Chorus: 6/8 time, 130 bpm, all instruments in playing chords
Walk on the prince’s alter we shall all hail the King,
For all who oppose him shall feel the wrath of vain
Wake from the dead all who shall rise
Then we go destroy the ones with pride
The struggle of man will reach demise
Forever will our army be dead and bide
Verse: 4/4 time, 170 bpm, downstrum and kick drum
He who created the universe turns his eye,
(what has his creation become)
All around is fear of the mighty and deceit
(The power hungry have taken over)
Where is the order which we strive for
Pre-chorus: ¾ time, 130 BPM, down picking on guitars no bass
Walk on the prince’s alter we shall all hail the King,
For all who oppose him shall feel the wrath of vain
Chorus: 6/8 time, 130 bpm, all instruments in playing chords
Wake from the dead all who shall rise
Then we go destroy the ones with pride
The struggle of man will reach demise
Forever will our army be dead and bide
Guitar Solo (Tanner) 4/4 150 bpm
Verse: 4/4 time, 170 bpm, tremollo and tamborine
There is an eerie presence here.
One that is unwelcomed and tempted
Will he find a victim to devour
Or will the prey fire the shot
Chorus: 6/8 time, 130 bpm, all instruments in playing chords
Walk on the prince’s alter we shall all hail the King,
For all who oppose him shall feel the wrath of vain
Wake from the dead all who shall rise
Then we go destroy the ones with pride
The struggle of man will reach demise
Forever will our army be dead and bide
Chorus: 6/8 time, 130 bpm, all instruments in playing chords
Over the horizon, the sun rises for us
Beyond the trees flies the flag of hope
And an angel rises. We are to be saved
Wake from the dead all who shall rise
Then we go destroy the ones with pride
The struggle of man will reach demise
(VOCAL SHOUTING SOLO LINE) Forever will our army be dead and bide
Outro (Bells and organ)
