[Verse 1] Blades of night Shadows scream Blood-soaked ground A crimson dream The earth weeps Its wounds exposed A kingdom drowned The damned imposed [Prechorus] Marching on Through the void Dreams of light Long destroyed [Chorus] Empire of the Damned! Ruins rule the land! Ashes Fire Endless night! The throne of pain Our delight! [Verse 2] Towers crumble Skies ignite A plague of death Eternal fight Chains of wrath They bind us tight Reigning chaos The dark’s birthright [Prechorus] Rising smoke Choking air Victory dies in despair [Chorus] Empire of the Damned! Ruins rule the land! Ashes Fire Endless night! The throne of pain Our delight!
