[Intro] (The track opens with the deep, rumbling 8-bit sound of the C64 SID chip playing the iconic 'Wilderness' theme. Suddenly, a massive, thunderous drum fill kicks in! The heavy metal band explodes into a galloping, epic power metal riff, seamlessly blending the distorted guitars with the retro 8-bit synthesizer!) [Verse 1] The viper of darkness has taken the throne, A kingdom of ruin, a castle of stone. Death Adder is laughing, the monarch is bound, But three mighty warriors march on the ground! The dwarf with the thunder, the barbarian's might, The amazon burning with fire in the night. They walk through the forest of sorrow and pain, To wash away evil and shatter the chain! [Pre-Chorus] (The rhythm speeds up, palm-muted and aggressive!) They hunt down the thieves in the dead of the night! Stealing the potions to fuel up the fight! The dragons are mounted, the beasts hear the call, They ride to the gates where the tyrant must fall! [Chorus] (A massive, symphonic wall of sound, mixing roaring guitars and 8-bit arpeggios!) Raise the Golden Axe! Hear the thunder roll! The heroes of Yuria fighting to take back the soul! From the arcade screens to the 8-bit glow, The serpent will bleed in the valley below! Claim the weapon! Break the hex! Strike them down with the Golden Axe! [Verse 2] They march through the village upon the great shell, They fly on the eagle straight into the hell. The skeletons rise from the dirt and the dust, But the steel of the heroes will never know rust! A swing of the broadsword, a blast of the flame, The armies of shadow are put to the shame. With magic erupting and tearing the sky, The armored battalions are sent out to die! [Pre-Chorus] They hunt down the thieves in the dead of the night! Stealing the potions to fuel up the fight! The dragons are mounted, the beasts hear the call, They ride to the gates where the tyrant must fall! [Chorus] Raise the Golden Axe! Hear the thunder roll! The heroes of Yuria fighting to take back the soul! From the arcade screens to the 8-bit glow, The serpent will bleed in the valley below! Claim the weapon! Break the hex! Strike them down with the Golden Axe! [Bridge] (The heavy galloping completely stops. A slow, crushing, doom-metal riff begins. A choir of synthesized voices chants in the background as the heroes reach the final throne room.) The dungeon is open... the prisoners weep. The giant of iron awakens from sleep. Death Adder is standing, the weapon in hand, The final collision to rescue the land! (The tempo doubles instantly! A furious, high-pitched heavy metal scream shatters the tension!) Unleash the Magic! [Solo Section] 🎸 The Yuria Duel! (An epic, blazing instrumental section! A soaring, neoclassical electric guitar shreds a lightning-fast solo. Then, the C64 SID chip answers back, playing a frantic, pitch-bending 8-bit solo! The two sounds weave together in a majestic, high-speed fantasy harmony!) [Final Chorus] Raise the Golden Axe! Hear the thunder roll! The heroes of Yuria fighting to take back the soul! From the arcade screens to the 8-bit glow, The serpent will bleed in the valley below! Claim the weapon! Break the hex! Strike them down with the Golden Axe! [Outro] The tyrant has fallen! (The Axe!) The kingdom is free! (The Axe!) The legend is written in steel! (The band strikes a final, earth-shattering power chord that rings out for several seconds. As the guitar feedback fades, the nostalgic, 8-bit C64 "Game Over / High Score" melody plays softly into the silence.)
