[Verse 1] It HANGS across her back like a shadow from the stars A whisper forged in fire, sealed behind ten thousand bars Faces twist along its length, they moan but never speak They pulse in blazing torment, their silence split by shrieks [Verse 2] It writhes against the night when the bones begin to rise When sockets glare like lanterns lit in empty, endless skies No forge could hold its heat, no chain could bind its weight It rings with cursed momentum at the iron doors of fate [Chorus] Accur-sed Black Claymore... (Forged from one thousand souls) Accur-sed Screaming Sword... (Blazing with its occult coals) Accur-sed Black Claymore... (Forged from one thousand souls) Accur-sed Screaming Sword... (Blazing with its occult coals) [Verse 3] It howls through splintered ribs when the rattling hosts appear Each arc a wail of fury made for skeletons to fear It dances like a banshee in her calloused, steady hand And leaves behind a cinder where the bone-white legions stand [Bridge] It sings in smoke It cries in flame No one who hears Leaves quite the same... (...quite the same...) [Chorus] Accur-sed Black Claymore... (Forged from one thousand souls) Accur-sed Screaming Sword... (Blazing with its occult coals) Accur-sed Black Claymore... (Forged from one thousand souls) Accur-sed Screaming Sword... (Blazing with its occult coals) [Chorus] Accur-sed Black Claymore... (Forged from one thousand souls) Accur-sed Screaming Sword... (Blazing with its occult coals) Accur-sed Black Claymore... (Forged from one thousand souls) Accur-sed Screaming Sword... Fuchsia flame and shadows roll... Fuchsia flame and shadows roll... ONE THOUSAND SOULS... ONE THOUSAND SOULS...
