Nox Sinister – Tomb of Saint George Lyrics

O, the gods of war are just
Bless our blades, quench our bloodlust
Lords of thunder, torn asunder
Strike the sea the city's under
Burn the village, enslave the children
Kill their men and take their women
Heavens choked by fire and smoke
Rain upon the oath we broke

Heaven or Hell, no one can tell
Where we will go
We swore oaths on Saint George's bones
Decades ago
War lost its faith, it's silver we take
Purpose is gone
We've given our souls to diamonds and gold
And fallen beyond

To be revered among 
Men But whose actions
Are seen only through a God's eye
Become the dragon 
He swore to destroy 
And the legend will never die

Yeah

Cast in stone for a thousand years
Every martyr sheds their tears
The corpse awakened from its rest
The hero's tomb now a dragon's nest
A legend reborn in fiery skin
Awakened, turned this saint to sin
Mourning bells in churches ring
Their Saint George now the Dragon King

Heaven or Hell, no one can tell
Where we will go
We swore oaths on Saint George's bones
Decades ago
War lost its faith, it's silver we take
Purpose is gone
We've given our souls to diamonds and gold
And fallen beyond

Burn in George's fire
Till we reach the spire
Ascalon reforged in flame
Unhallowed be thy name
Thracian horsemen ride for doom
Until the bloodied moon
The golden legend black
Redrawn and re-penned

Fiery tyrant
(Evil spawn)
Children crying
(We came to )
Claim our vengeance

Hear the storm crashing down
Those we've slain make not a sound
Our swords are stained with flesh and blood
We show no mercy, where is your god?
These hallowed bones will rest no more
With dragon's wings the beast shall soar
Skys grow dark, no light of moon
Our oath fulfilled on St. George's tomb

Heaven or Hell, no one can tell
Where we will go
We swore oaths on Saint George's bones
Decades ago
War lost its faith, it's silver we Take
Purpose is gone
We've given our souls to Diamonds and gold
And fallen beyond
