Achilles, Agony And Ecstasy In Eight Parts
Manowar

Prelude


I. Hector storms the wall


See my chariot run to your ships

I'll drive you back in the sea

You came here for gold

The wall will not hold

This day was promised to me

The Gods are my shield

My fate has been sealed

Lightning and javelins fly

Soon many will fall

We are storming the wall

Stones fall snow from the sky

We will pay with our glory

In the fire of battle

Zeus today is mine

Killing all in my way

Like sheep and like cattle

Smashing skulls of all who defy

I spare not the hammer

I spare not the sword

This day will ring with my name

None have to chase me

Let he who will face me

Kill me or die by the sword


Ii. The Death Of Patroclus


Oh friend of mine, how to say goodbye

This was your time, but the armor you

Wore was mine, I will not rest until

Hector's blood is spilled

His bones will all be broken

Dragged across the field

This dear friend is how we'll say

Goodbye, until we meet in the sky


Iii. Funeral March


Iv. Armor of the gods


V. Hector's final hour


Here inside the walls of Troy, the Gods weigh my

Fate from this day do I abstain, to a memory of

Hate to pay for all the blood that spilled

The many thousands I did kill, no walls can

Contain in the Gods almighty will

I hear the silent voices I cannot hide

The Gods leave no choices so we all must die

Oh Achilles let the arrows fly

Into the wind, where eagles cross the sky

Today my mortal blood will mix with sand it was

Foretold I will die by thy hand

Into Hades my soul descends


Vi. Death Hector's Reward


Cowards in the grip of fear, no valor to uphold

Cut into the Earth, will honour long been sold

For all shall come to know me

As they fall unto their knees

Zeus the thunderer, control my destiny

When the cards of life were dealt

My hand a ruthless fate

To avenge, and bringeth fury, Hector feel my hate

A bloodbath I was born to bring, my birth I'm an assassin

To cut the cord of life and death

Ties to Earth unfasten

Blood and fire death and hate, your body I will desecrate

Dogs and vultures eat your flesh the hall the Hades waits

Kill...

Hector's blood lies on the battlefield

His body's mangled wounds

The Gods who once protected him are now his Gods of doom

Like a tower standing tall, steadfast in direction

I fall upon your bringing death, the Gods give no protection

Coward in the grip of fear, no valor to uphold

Cut into the Earth, will honor long been sold

For all shall come to know me, as they fall unto their

Knees Zeus the thunderer, control my destiny

Blood and fire death and hate, your body I will desecrate

Dogs and vultures eat your flesh the hall of Hades waits

Die die die die...


Vii. The Decreation Of Hector's Body


Part 1


Part 2


Viii. The glory of achilles


The oath of the Gods, this day was fulfilled

In the hear of the battle, Hector was killed

See him Patroclus, down in the dust

Rejoice in his death my symbol of trust

A dozen highborn youths, have been killed

Cutting their throats their blood was all spilled

Their bodies set at the foot of your fire

With oxen, sheep and two of your hounds

Your funeral Pyre high off the ground

Hector's body dragged three times around

I will carry the torch to your funeral Pyre

I will ask of the wind to send high your fire

Hector's blood will not be washed from my body

Until your body is burned

A prophecy spoken a promise fulfilled

More blood will be spilled, more will be killed
