High on a ridge where the darklord stands
Sending black legions to crush the lands
Captures of hades transporting
The crown into the pit of this unholy row
Do it all alone down into Belial's home

Strengthens his force as the darkness falls
Laughs at the angels their feeble calls
High on their fortress that crumbles
Before all that in touch with the dark evil law
Do it all alone down into Belial's home
Strike the final chord hail unto the overlord

Sending black legions to crush the lands
Captures of hades transporting
The crown ever further ever down
Into the pits of hell
Now in the bleakness the elders recant
Thinking of histories the ancients relent
Gathered in circles before their host
There's no one soul he desires most.
Do it all alone way down into Belial's home
Strike a chord hail unto the overlord
