Here the screams from down below The cry of the raven, the demons and wizards In league with the dark Feed the fire nourish the flames The hammer is pounding the steel in its grace By via crucis, embraced Born out of wedlock, the spirit is lost Ordeal of ingestion, the way of the cross Oh its Tainted metal Tainted metal No return nowhere to go The wands of the wizards call demons to fetter Their heart broken souls Face the fire, defiling the steel The blood of the heathens, their guts and their gore Weakens the sword to the core Born out of wedlock, the future came fast Trial by fire, iconoclast Oh its Tainted metal Tainted metal Oh its Tainted metal Tainted metal Blackens the power of steel Born out of wedlock, thy spirit is lost Ordeal of ingestion, ordeal of the cross Oh its Tainted metal Tainted metal Oh its Tainted metal Tainted metal Blackens the power of steel Oh, oh its Tainted metal Oh its Tainted metal Oh its Tainted metal
