(Verse 1) The Valley of Kings is left far behind, With the strength of the ancients etched in his mind. The sky turns to soot, the air turns to flame, As he calls out the demon god's cursed name. Before him it looms, the mountain of steel, A fortress of iron that refuses to kneel. The Iron Citadel, black as the grave, A prison for titans, a tomb for the brave! (Pre-Chorus) Rhageln archers line the high wall, Waiting for Adylor’s signal to fall. But the Greatsword is raised, a beacon of light, To shatter the mind of the eternal night! (Chorus) Nehlawl! The Iron Citadel calls, Blood on the gates and the sparks on the walls! The Lord of the Sword at the threshold of Hell, To silence the chime of the demon bell. Break the iron! Rend the stone! He fights for the world, but he stands alone! Lord of the Sword! (Verse 2) The bridge is a spine over rivers of fire, As the screams of the damned rise higher and higher. A thousand black spears descend from the sky, But the Knight doesn't falter, he’s ready to die. He reaches the gate, a titan of oak and chain, To wash away centuries of sorrow and pain. One strike of his blade, the hinges they groan, The greatest of terrors is finally known! (Chorus) Nehlawl! The Iron Citadel calls, Blood on the gates and the sparks on the walls! The Lord of the Sword at the threshold of Hell, To silence the chime of the demon bell. Break the iron! Rend the stone! He fights for the world, but he stands alone! Lord of the Sword! (Bridge) (The music slows to a crushing, heavy Doom Metal pace) In the shadow of the archway, the darkness is thick, The air is a poison that makes the soul week. But the love in his heart is a fire so bright, It carves a path through the belly of night! [Solo: Heavy, distorted duel between the Lead and Super Strat guitars] (Verse 3) The gates fall asunder, the iron is torn, A new day of vengeance is finally born. He walks through the ruins, the smoke, and the gore, To find the dark god and to settle the score. The throne room is waiting, the shadows retreat, The ending is coming, bitter and sweet! (Chorus) Nehlawl! The Iron Citadel calls, Blood on the gates and the sparks on the walls! The Lord of the Sword at the threshold of Hell, To silence the chime of the demon bell. (Outro) The Citadel is breached! The demon shall bleed! For the love of the fallen, he does the deed! Lord of the Sword... (The music ends with a massive, echoing boom like a gate falling to the floor)
