Let the Metal Do the Talking Lyrics

I didn't choose to take this path, I was cursed to live this life
I fought the evil with my sword and God was by my side
I crossed the oceans of the world, protector of my king
To kill was no priority, I was a warrior with pride
I have been through heaven and I have been through hell
But changes they were coming and I just couldn't tell

Let the metal
Sing out loud
Do the talking
Stand up proud

Let the metal
Show the light
Do the talking
Or fight the fight

With the victory at our grasp an ambush struck us down
We didn't know what to believe, a traitor in our lair
We were captured one and all, and brought before their king
- I will punish as I please, and I don't believe in "fair''
We were chained and shackled, at the bottom of a well
I have been to heaven, but now I am in hell

Let the metal
Sing out loud
Do the talking
Stand up proud

Let the metal
Show the light
Do the talking
Or fight the fight
The years have passed and I'm still here, blinded but alive
Mercy doesn't reach this far, my heart is black with hate
I can't get out but I can fight, my swords is by my side
Must I accept my destiny, oh how cruel is fate?

Here I dwell in darkness, I never see the light
It seems that for eternity my enemies I fight

Let the metal
Sing out loud
Do the talking
Stand up proud

Let the metal
Show the light
Do the talking
Or fight the fight
