Inside the palace, of an evil man's dream
The court assembles, to hail their new king
He strides with grace, across the palace floor
To take his place, upon the Throne of Skulls
Deep in the chalice, through the fire and steam
The vision clears (brought forth by blood offering)
He sees the face, of the one who'll take his blood
And take his place, upon the Throne of Skulls
The demon rages, "This vision is a lie"
And breaks the chalice, with one mighty strike
"I killed them all, drowned on the ocean floor
To gain this hall, and build the Throne of Skulls"
"Through all the ages, not a soul could defy
Black death's own Goddess, and her silver pike
The Nine Ones' fall, aided by the demon god
Now hear death's call, out of the Throne of Skulls
A skull-clad throne - black altars of stone
So many have died - bones crucified
A flesh offering - to the unholy king
Wasting men's lives
In the reign of the Black Knives!
Priests of the slaughter, from their work there's no rest
To find and kill him, "the bringer of death"
Blood dyes the lands, it flows forevermore
For dread commands, upon the Throne of Skulls
He rapes his daughter, a God's justified incest
To breed a new race, born of hatred and death
His house now stands, on solid ground of black blood
Hark! Hell demands, "obey the Throne of Skulls!
