(Lyrics by Caleb Bingham with additions by Heino Brand) Drawn from the deep by the light of the moon No more do they sleep - Your end’s coming soon There is no escape - Your soul won’t be saved You’ll soon meet your fate in a watery grave (Terrors borne of the night arise The Drowned Witch hungers for flesh) None can resist - The toll of the bells Out from the mist - They’ll drag you to hell Frozen in fear - Listen to the sound Ringing in your ears - The Bells of the Drowned Trapped in a place ‘tween sleep and awake Soon you’ll be faced with a most dismal fate From now ever after unspeakable pain The sound of their laughter will drive you insane (The Reign of Enmity ends Ringing bells sound from the depths) You won’t make a sound, forever you’ll sleep You’ll never be found six thousand fathoms deep None can resist - The toll of the bells Out from the mist - They’ll drag you to hell Frozen in fear - Listen to the sound Ringing in your ears - The Bells of the Drowned Waxy cold hands - Grab you by the hair Taken from the land - You’re gasping for air Everything has ceased to be Now your soul is lost at sea (Solo - Heino Brand) None can resist - The toll of the bells Out from the mist - They’ll drag you to hell Frozen in fear - Listen to the sound Ringing in your ears - The Bells of the Drowned You won’t make a sound, forever you’ll sleep You’ll never be found six thousand fathoms deep

(Lyrics by Heino Brand with additions by Caleb Bingham) Shadow riders survey the land With eyes aflame their souls are damned Mighty men the kings of old Hollow husks now cling to the cold Empty promises - cost their lives Broken dreams - no hope survives Lasting darkness - the final decree Wraith dominion - none are free Swearing oaths with swords in hand Living ghosts now stalk the land Answering Lord Sauron’s call For the Ring mankind shall fall (None can resist There’s nowhere to run The all-seeing eye eclipses the sun The names may be different the battle’s the same The whole of the world will perish in flames) Darkspeed with the wind at their backs They ride shrouded in black The call of the Ring was heard Day and night they continue to search No more - their kingdoms stand Names lost - to the passing of time Faceless - and shadow-cloaked The Nine - which man can’t kill Alive - yet dead as well Riding - on steeds from hell Servants - of the flaming eye The Nine - that cannot die (Solo - Jori Haukio) Swearing oaths with swords in hand Living ghosts now stalk the land Answering Lord Sauron’s call For the Ring mankind shall fall Wraith dominion - None are free Sauron reigns eternally Mankind shall fall

(Lyrics by Caleb Bingham with additions by Heino Brand) High in the mountains - In a spire of stone A high-born Countess makes her home The call of a ram’s horn - Opens the gates Behind her walls sheer terror awaits Beneath a crimson veil there lies A glint of murder in emerald eyes A charming smile - Invites you in Inside her chambers - Unspeakable sin Radiant skin - Like porcelain She begins to open your veins Hail to Countess Bathory Vampire Queen of Hungary Tonight the royal baths shall flood Deep within the Tower of Blood The smell of iron fills the air With virgin blood she washes her hair Slow torture - Sadistic infliction Feeding her sanguineous addiction Needles holding up your eyes Crying out - You beg to die Hail to Countess Bathory Vampire Queen of Hungary Tonight the royal baths shall flood Deep within the Tower of Blood (From a dreamless sleep - I have now awakened To cull human sheep - From villages taken I seek the most fine - The most fit and fair With features divine - And long flowing hair I've ordered my servants - To round them all up My hunger is fervent - I shall bathe and sup And when I am finished - My mirror shall view No remnants of blemish - My body anew) (Solo - Heino Brand) The great hall is now painted red Incense masks the smell of the dead Hundreds more in unmarked graves Scream all you want - You will not be saved None return from her domain Never shall you live again Eternal pain Hail to Countess Bathory Vampire Queen of Hungary Tonight the royal baths shall flood Deep within the Tower of Blood A grim display of murderous art Her icy blade pierced your quivering heart And now at last - Beautiful death Whispering your final breath: Elizabeth
