The Bearer of The Axe

This is a song about a medieval executioner... It's a song from my thrash metal band...

Seeing the crowd, it thirsts for blood,
They carry you up, covered in mud,
Your shackles have cut, deep in your skin,
Your head on the stump, the onslaught begins...

Lord forgive me for my sins...

For I am the bearer, of the axe,
To kill is, what I'm, paid.
I end your life, this darkened night, Execution, is your grave...

The air is so cold, your hands start to freeze,
I slash with the blade, as you stop to breathe,
On your useless body, the crows start to feed,
From living on earth, you have been freed...

As I stand... And watch you bleed...

As I stand... And watch you bleed!

Don't hate if you are not a fan of metal music...

Reviews

[Quoting Ravens]

I like how some parts are like a prayer, but its so short, even for a song.

[Mirko Galušić]

In metal, it is a very common thing... There are songs thar are sort of a crossover of an instrumental and a normal one, so the half of the song is with lyrics, or the lyrics are small, but spread out wide trough the song :)
