Far up in the mountains Above the world end's rim Something has arisen Deadly and grim Ancient evil is on the approach Taking worlds, leaving nothing behind Judgement Day is drawing near for humankind One of a million, one to be bound To stand the line, holding the ground Kiss me goodbye, I'm heading straight for Hell But I won't say farewell Thunder from the mountains In the pale light of the moon Here I'm standing all alone In the prelude of doom A firestorm burns the world The land is bleeding and dies And I am sending out A prayer to the skies Onwards I am riding Straight into the storm Blood will be shed And legends will be born The clock is striking the darkest hour A brutal force is crossing the bounds Turning the land into burial grounds And though it seems as if yesterday Is lost and so endlessly far away There will be a tomorrow And take my word I will return from hell This is no farewell Thunder from the mountains In the pale light of the moon Here I'm standing all alone In the prelude of doom A firestorm burns the world The land is bleeding and dies And I am sending out A prayer to the skies Out on the battlefield The killing has begun Lives are taken one by one Outnumbered, under fire The blood toll is getting higher The mission is to stay alive To keep the promise And make it back to you Back to you To hold you, to kiss you Love and caress you And if I'd have to go Go through hell again I'd do it all again Thunder from the mountains In the pale light of the moon Here I'm standing all alone In the prelude of doom A firestorm burns the world The land is bleeding and dies And I am sending out A prayer to the skies Thunder from the mountains Thunder from the mountains Thunder from the mountains
