With guilt and a sense of grave debt
They want you enslaved
And they keep you tethered
And later as mortal hour nears
They bring out the scales, saying
Heaven or Hell - stand and be measured
Well I left calamity in my wake
I took all I never needed to take
I left peaceful gardens burning behind
I let the beast rule me, cruel and unkind
And if you should weigh my heart against a feather
You'd find it lighter, lighter, lighter than ever
I've chosen to walk with the Devil
And we'll keep on rolling and reveling together
But there is still time to decide
What is due whom, and which ties to sever
Either place your soul in the pharisee's hands
Or come walk with us, the eternally damned
And if you should weigh my heart against a feather
You'd find it lighter, lighter, lighter than ever
We've chosen to walk with the Devil
And we'll keep on rolling and reveling together
We've chosen to walk with the Devil
And we'll keep on rolling and reveling
Together, forever more

If Elric had a soundtrack it would be this. It's everything you want from a epic metal album. Like a hot poker in the eye, but in a good way. Scott Malthouse
Biased bassist opinion: The bass guitar driven sound of this massive power metal masterpiece made me want to grab MY bass and learn every song in a way that hasn't happened to me since the first time I heard Iron Maiden - Powerslave! These aural annihilation anthems are filled with expert musicianship and exquisite lyrics belted by one of the best voices metal has to offer! Do not pass this one up! annimax_metal
