Text:
[Verse 1]
By moonlight, we ride
Ten thousand side by side
With swords drawn, held high
Our whips and armor shine
Hail to thee, our infantry
Still brave beyond the grave
All have sworn the eternal vow
The time to strike is now
[Chorus 1]
Kill, Kill, oh-oh-oh-oh
Kill, Kill, oh-oh-oh
Kill, Kill, oh-oh-oh-oh
Kill, Kill, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
Gone are the days, when freedom shone
Now blood and steel meet bone
In the light of the battle’s wake
The sense of time will shake
How proud a soldier stand
With mace and chain in hand
Sound the charge into glory ride
Over the top of the vanquished pride
[Chorus 2]
Victory, victory, oh-oh-oh-oh
Victory, victory, oh-oh-oh
Victory, victory, oh-oh-oh-oh
Victory, victory, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Bridge]
To the battle, we ride
We crossed a starlit sky
No space, no time
We’ll catch the wind
Strange losses, men die
We crossed a starlit sky
And still, no space and time
We’ll catch the wind
[Chorus 1]
Kill, Kill, oh-oh-oh-oh
Kill, Kill, oh-oh-oh
Kill, Kill, oh-oh-oh-oh
Kill, Kill, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 3]
Sound the charge into glory ride
Over the top of the vanquished pride
By moonlight we ride
Ten thousand side by side
[Chorus 1]
Kill, Kill, oh-oh-oh-oh
Kill, Kill, oh-oh-oh
Kill, Kill, oh-oh-oh-oh
Kill, Kill, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Outro]
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
