Blaze Of Victory (the Watchman's Song) Lyrics - Virgin Steele

Blessed Gods, Cold Stars, release me from my long suffering 

Anxious, Weary, my Mind wracked by Fears unnatural I Scan The Horizon 

Watching, hoping for Signs of the Signal Fire 

Great Gift of Prometheus, reward me with the news that Troy has 

Finally Fallen! 

It is She who commands me thus to remain upon this Palace roof 

Watching, waiting... that willful, calculating Woman, who plots 

And Schemes, like a King!!! 

No sleep, no Dreams, only Fear descends upon my couch and Ravages 

My Heart 

Yes Sorrow and Fear for what's become of this House 

Once so Great, now lost and cold, Hungry Spirits stalk these Halls 

But still I'll keep my Faith and Pray for our release from all 

This suffering... 

Look there... at last... Conquest! Great Blaze of Triumph, 

I Greet thee, I Honour thee most Welcome Visitor from the Depths 

Of the Night 

Rape the Sky like a Royal Sun, turn this Mournful Night into 

Shining Day! 

Awake Queen of Agamemnon, rise from thy sleep 

Cry the Morning Song of Victory, for the Kingdom of Ilion has Fallen 

The God of Fire proclaims it so 

We'll reap this Harvest of Flame, give Thanks and Pay Tribute 

To the Deities that made us... 

Oh let it be so, let our Fleet return in Honour 

Over Lord Poseidon?s Sea, safe from Wind and Storm 

Let me stand before my King and Pledge him Sword and Life for his Glory 

A Thorn grips my voice, no more from me now 

Yet if this House could speak what a Tale it could tell 

Of Savage Murder, Betrayal, Ravenous Feasting and a Daimon with an 

Unquenchable thirst for Blood and Torn Flesh!!! 

No, no more from me, let actions speak! AWAKE!!!
