I rise from shadows, blade in hand Master of steel, I command the land My steel is cold, my will is fire The apex of a knight's desire! No fear resides in this heart of stone Through cursed lands, I walk alone With every step, the earth does moan For I am king upon this throne Hear the clash of the unforgiving steel A symphony of combat, forever real No shield I need, my blade's my ward I'm dancing with the sword! Master! Flamberge! Cleaving through the night! Bastard sword! A blur of vengeful light! Rapier's thrust, a starlight sting! Executioner's swing! I am the bladed king! The zweihänder crushes the bone! By the long sword, my soul is sworn To fight till the breaking of the seventh dawn! (The master!) I've danced with death in moonlit halls Seen empires rise and fortress walls fall My footwork's grace, a deadly art To tear the darkness apart Parry! Riposte! A silver wind The final verse for the dancer blade sinned Your armor's just a mortal shell My edge will send your soul to hell! See the dread in the enemy's dying gaze I am the storm that ends its craze No mortal law my arm does bind I am the truth the blind shall find! Master! Flamberge! Cleaving through the night! Bastard sword! A blur of vengeful light! Rapier's thrust, a starlight sting! Executioner's swing! I am the bladed king! The zweihänder crushes the bone! By the long sword, my soul is sworn To fight till the breaking of the seventh dawn! (The master!) A thousand battles scar my skin A thousand tales of where I've been This path I walk is drenched in red By honored living, and glorious dead The sword's my voice, my breath, my creed The answer to my soul's last need! Blood on the hilt No shame, no guilt The symphony of iron starts to play Kneel to the steel! Master! Flamberge! Cleaving through the night! Bastard sword! A blur of vengeful light! The rapier pierces the soul! The claymore takes its toll! Executioner's swing! I am the bladed king! By the long sword, my soul is sworn To fight till my soul vanishes at dawn! The steel master! I am the cut! I am the steel! I am the blade!
