Infernal Majesty - Those about to Die


Two sixty four B.C., blood thirsty age of steel
 The atrocities of man, found new depths of pleasure
 Slaves captured in raging battles, forced to fight to the death
 Senseless brutal show of strength, the darkest side of man
 Fight for your life...fight for your life
 Lead: Terror
 Sadistic games to amuse the minds of shallow souls
 The Roman way of life, enjoying a human sacrifice
 Prisoners could die by the sword or live a life of shame
 Treasonists, murderers and thieves, sent face to face with the lions
 Refusal to worship the Gods of the Roman State
 Would certainly end your life
 After Jerusalems defeat, Jews were forced to fight
 Seventeen years and older found themselves in the ring
 No compassion to be found for those puppets on a string
 Fight: for you life
 Pray: for you soul
 Now: You must fight till the death
 Now: fight for your next breath
 Fight: for your freedom
 Pray: for tomorrow
 Now: supreme test of strength
 Now: only the strong will survive
 Parading through the Collisium, Warriors prepare to fight
 Those about to die salute you, blood will flow tonight
 One versus one, man against man, the instinct of survival
 Victory held for one, the dead are spared their shame

 Courage gives away to the last moment
 Fears subdued with whips and chains
 Refer the plea to the people, beg for mercy is part of the game
 Thumbs down signals eternal rest, dragged through the death gates
 Defeated man finds lifeless peace but no remorse for his victim
