In the days of darkness,
men feared not the sword and the lance
nor did he fear the beast of fire,
he feared the Axeman
Once we lose our precious dreams,
there's nothing left to fight
Now you are bound and gagged,
one last meal is your final right
Many have tried, you are not the only one,
waiting for the final morn
time is now, the mask will be worn
CHORUS:
Bow down to the axeman
Hooded figure of mortal fear
Bow down to the axeman
Sun is rising, time is near
Darkness fills your parting soul,
mystical power was yours alone
You stole the king's crown of gold,
claiming the kingdom for your own
Good and evil clash in battle,
armies fight into the night
Steel and iron ring out the warning,
powers on the side of right
REAPEAT CHORUS
The sign of the king unities us all,
our fight for freedom rages on
Against warriors of light many fall,
our dreams of peace are not all gone
Once we lose that precious dream,
there's nothing left to fight
Now you are bound and gagged,
one last meal is your final right
REAPEAT CHORUS
