[Aggressive Intro] '82, ancient horde was sleeping. Human ignorance, didn't know what the earth was keeping. Brood Five, silent army of horror. Ancient perfect design—exoskeleton of armor. [Verse 1] Buried deep, metamorphosis chamber. Cold will. No thoughts, no emotions, no anger. Before oaks, before grass, before flowers. Before men ever dreamed of power. [Pre-Chorus ] Primal programming, rising in unison. Demon eyes, red glowing, first time to see the sun. [Chorus] Army of darkness, rise to the light. Mammalian panic, arthropodic delight. Army of darkness, marching in the light. Programmed mission: blight, blight, blight. [Verse 2 ] Approaching tall, wise, bi-peedal primates. Billion-voice choir, screech, insectoid hate. Father-son, lead warm-blooded march. Six million red eyes... where will they start? [breakdown] Shot them down, hear their wailing despair! Impaled on pikes, brood vanish-ing everywhere Their bodies crushed, greasing the asphalt Two-man army will never know defeat! [Chorus] Army of destruction, retreats into the darkness! Mammalian triumph led by red-blooded hearts Digging deep, hiding, laying for the next Brood The Sapians emerge victorious from the eldritch wood [Bridge / Solo ] Army of darkness, rose to the light! Crushed, defeated sent back into their long night! [Emotional Outro ] Army of darkness, rose to the light! Crushed, defeated sent back into their long night! Army of darkness, rose to the light! Crushed, defeated sent back into their long night!
