Manowar - The Lord Of Steel Album Lyrics

The Lord Of Steel

In the nights
We take flights
Witness the sites
The power and glory of steel
I fought and died
Lived many lives before
I am immortal like my sword
I kneel to no one except the lord
And my lord is steel
If you see me you just passed your time
To the hills you can run but not hide
Blood and death are wherever i ride
Armed for battle the lord on my side
Stand and face the lord of steel
The lord of steel
In the eyes of the lord you have sinned
Let your punishment begin
Only by death you atone
You shall not die alone
For the glory of battle
I will fight until i die
Live one day as an eagle
Or a lifetime as a fly
Like a candle burning
The wheels of time are turning
The lord of steel commands you
To die by my hand
Stand and fight the lord of steel
Time to face the lord of steel

Manowarriors

Hear a rollin thunder
When we come across the land
Feel the ground a shaking
Start to understand
Sons of thunder
More than just a band
Kings of metal
Loudest in the land
Never gonna change our style
Gonna play tonight for quite a while
In heavy metal we believe
If you don’t like it time to leave
Manowarriors raise your hands
We fight for metal
Manowarriors raise your hands
Our fight is real
We do just what we feel
Sons of steel
We come from different countries
With metal and with might
We drink a lot of beers
And play our metal loud at night
Fly the flag of metal
Brothers all the same
Born to live for metal
It ain’t no game
Never gonna change our style
Gonna play tonight for quite a while
In heavy metal we believe
If you don’t like it time to leave
Manowarriors raise your hands
We fight for metal
Manowarriors raise your hands
Our fight is real
We do just what we feel
Sons of steel
Sons of thunder
More than just a band
Kings of metal
Loudest in the land
Never gonna change our style
Gonna play tonight for quite a while
In heavy metal we believe
If you don’t like it time to leave
Manowarriors raise your hands
We fight for metal
Manowarriors raise your hands
Our fight is real

Born In A Grave

A gift of life born in a grave
Never to die
A soul that will never be saved
That will never see light
While the world is sleeping
We all fly
In the daylight silence keeping
We wait for the night
When the day ends life begins
When the shadows take light
For hundreds of years
We are your fears
We never will die
When the light goes away
We come out to play
Innocence lost and a demon within
Forgive me father, yes i have sinned
I will never be holy
I will never be saved
This was the gift on the day
I was born in a grave
Basking in the moonlight
Wolves will howl
And the bats will fly
You never knew
We were watching
Lifeless inside
For the blood is the life
The gift of the night
That has kept us alive
For thousands of years
We lived in your tears
And we never will die
When the light goes away
We come out to play
Innocence lost and a demon within
Forgive me father yes i have sinned
I will never be holy
I will never be saved
This was my gift on the day
I was born in a grave

Righteous Glory

She is watching
From on high
She knows who lives or dies
She will take me to the sky
Should darkness be my fate
Then let me fall among brave
In battle i shall die
In righteous glory i abide
In righteous glory she’ll come to me tonight
She will carry me across the other side
My brothers wait
Odin knows my name
In the hall of the slain
She takes me through the clouds
To another place and time
Holds me in her arms
Immortal and divine
On hooves of thunder
Her white horse parts the sky
Take me to valhalla
Valkyrie mine

Touch The Sky

Thunder touched my soul
I heard a call all should know
It’s my time i’m alive
Some will come some will go
But most will never know
That greatness lives inside
Like the night turns into day
Doesn’t matter what they say
My will is strong as a mountain’s high
I feel so tall i can touch the sky
Speak your mind, put me down
Say your prayers when i’m around
I live the life i’m not passing by
Shorn of hopes and dreams
I don’t buy their foolish schemes
I just walk on by
I was born with a hero’s soul
If you got one then you know
Reach my hand where the eagles fly
I feel so tall i can touch the sky

Black List

See the writings on the wall
If you can read
There’s a black list
Got one name and it’s me
Yea i got no invitation
But i won’t leave
Gonna keep on fighting
For everything that’s me
It’s my life
I’m living free
Ain’t nobody nowhere
Got no chains on me
See the writings on the wall
If you can read
There’s a black list
Got one name and it’s me
Yea i got no invitation
But i won’t leave
Gonna keep on fighting
For everything that’s me
If you don’t like me - tough, you better leave
Keep on fighting for the things i believe
See the writings on the wall
If you can read
There’s a black list
Got one name and it’s me
Yea i got no invitation
But i won’t leave
Gonna keep on fighting
For everything that’s me
Gonna fight for all the things
That make me breathe
And if you don’t like it - tough
You better leave

Expendable

I get professional pay
To make people go away
They got nothing to say
I’m expendable that’s my claim to fame
I’m expendable don’t have to know my name
Take a look into my dark side
Oh that’s a window to my soul
Your watching on the outside
Yea that’s all you people know
So bring a knife or a gun
And i’ll show you what their for
Both of them are fun
When the raven’s at your door
I’m expendable that’s my claim to fame
I’m expendable don’t have to know my name
Cause i will survive
With no one left around me
Cause your all gonna die
Together we ride
With vengeance inside
For our brother who died
We got blood on our minds
No we may not return
But many will burn
With a story to tell
How we took them to hell
I’m expendable that’s my claim to fame
I’m expendable don’t have to know my name

El Gringo

Don't look for me in Heaven
Don't look for me in Hell
Never taking me a live
I've got no soul to sell.

Don't look for me in prison
Don't try to save my soul
I'm a man without a country
And I've got no place to go.

You can say I'm just a gringo
You can say I'm just a man
I live outside the law
Doing anything I can.

I keep the laws I make
And I break the laws you keep.
I'm living on the edge.
Living on the street

Don't look for me in Heaven
Don't look for me in Hell
Never taking me alive
I've got no soul to sell.

Don't look for me in prison
Don't try to save my soul
I'm a man without a country
And I've got no place to go.

Each day I fight to live
I fight to stay alive.
Don't get in my way
Unless you want to die.

One who stands tall
Never stands alone.

[Solo]

Don't look for me in Heaven
Don't look for me in Hell
Never taking me alive
I've got no soul to sell.

Don't look for me in prison
Don't try to save my soul
I'm a man without a country
And I've got no place to go.

You can say I'm just a gringo
You can say I'm just a man
I live outside the law
Doing anything I can.

I keep the laws I make
And I break the laws you keep.
I'm living on the edge.
Living on the street.

Don't look for me in Heaven
Don't look for me in Hell
Never taking me alive
I've got no soul to sell.

Don't look for me in prison
Don't try to save my soul
I'm a man without a country
And I've got no place to go.

Annihilation

Another lie
Time to die
Another day
Blown away
Another scam
Show you who i am
Another day
Blown away
Hand of justice
Soon will be falling
Vengeance thine
Lord of steel
Annihilation
They will never win this fight
We have the power and the might
We have the sacred right
Feel the power here tonight
Hand of justice
Soon will be falling
Vengeance thine
Lord of steel
Annihilation
Live the life we truly feel
Fighting for the lord of steel
Heavy metal is my life
Heavy metal will never die

Hail, Kill And Die

On hymns of battle we rode to glory
Hail england did we
By the sign of the hammer
We fought the world
Kings of metal to be
Louder than hell
Warriors of the world
Now gods of war
Stand our ground knights immortal
For metal once more
Hail kill and die
On this ground for death and glory
Are all who believe
Blood and steel bound together
In a fight to be free
We will arm the just
And grind to dust
Those who deny
Our sacred right
Of glory and might
We shall survive
Hail kill and die
Hail kill and die
Dark avengers armed with hatred
Black arrows and wings
By the hammer of thor
A holy war
For the crown and the ring
We ride the dragon and wield the power
To fight til we die
Sons of odin stand so tall
We all touch the sky
Hail kill and die
