Tyrant lyrics

Behold 'tis I the commander

Whose grip controls you all

Resist me not, surrender

I'll no compassion call

(tyrant) capture of humanity

(tyrant) conqueror of all

(tyrant) hideous destructor

(tyrant) every man shall fall

Your very lives are held within my fingers

I snap them and you cower down in fear

You spineless things who belly down to slither

To the end of the world you follow to be near

(tyrant) capture of humanity

(tyrant) conqueror of all

(tyrant) hideous destructor

(tyrant) every man shall fall

Mourn for us oppressed in fear

Chained and shackled we are bound

Freedom choked in dread we live

Since tyrant was enthroned

I listen not to sympathy

Whilst ruler of this land

Withdraw your feeble aches and moans

Or suffer smite from this my hand

(tyrant) capture of humanity

(tyrant) conqueror of all

(tyrant) hideous destructor

(tyrant) every man shall fall

Mourn for us oppressed in fear

Chained and shackled we are bound

Freedom choked in dread we live

Since tyrant was enthroned

My legions faithful unto death

I'll summon to my court

And as you perish each of you

Shall scream as you are sought

(tyrant) capture of humanity

(tyrant) conqueror of all

(tyrant) hideous destructor

(tyrant) every man shall fall
