V5

(Verse 1) The heavy doors splinter, the smoke starts to clear, The moment is coming, the ending is near. Upon a throne of obsidian and bone, The Demon God sits, on a kingdom of stone. Adylor laughs, a sound from the void, "Knight You’ve come a long way but the dark never be destroyed!" But the Knight doesn't speak, he stand with his sword, Ready to waltz in the demons gardens, he is not alone (Pre-Chorus) The Greatsword ignites with a celestial blue, The souls of the fallen are calling through! From Nenlosrah’s mist to the Citadel’s gate, All of your journeys have led to this fate! (Chorus) Face the Demon! Face the darkness old! On the floor where the ancient kings have trod! Steel against Shadow, Light against Dark, In the dark of the demon, ignite the spark! The Lord of the Sword! The final blow! To send the deceiver to the abyss below! Lord of the Sword! (Verse 2) They clash like the thunder, they strike like the storm, The demon is shifting, changing his form. Claws made of night-steel, eyes made of fire, The stakes of the world couldn't be any higher. Adylor strikes with a whip made of souls, But the love of the Lord the darkness controls. He remembers the kiss, the promise, the light, And finds a new strength to finish the fight! (Bridge) (The music stops. Only a dark, pulsing bass and the Electric Violin remains) "dark eternal," the demon god cries, "dark the hunger that never lies!" (The Knight roars back) "just a ghost, a memory of dark, this sword will send Adylor to the Abyss, back!" [Epic Guitar Solo: A fast, harmonized duel between three guitars, reaching a frantic peak!] (Verse 3) With a leap of defiance, a strike from above, For the sake of the kingdom, the sake of his love. The Greatsword descends, piercing the chest, Putting the spirit of evil to rest. Adylor shatters like glass in the sun, The battle is over, the victory is won! The Citadel trembles, the shadows retreat, As the Adylor fell down and demon defeat (Chorus) Face the Demon! Face the darkness old! On the floor where the ancient kings have trod! Steel against Shadow, Light against Dark, In the dark of the demon, ignite the spark! The Lord of the Sword! (Outro) The silence returns... The darkness is fled... The crown of the demon is broken its end. He walks to the balcony, watches the dawn, The nightmare of Nehlawl is finally gone. Lord of the Sword... Forevermore... (A final, triumphant orchestral swell that fades into the sound of birds singing and the wind blowing through the Valley of the Kings)
