Vengeance
Lyrics
See them standing in the foothills Waiting for the kill ♪ On wings of fear the terror sweeps Into the city beat To defend This is the pact But when life's scorned And damage done To avenge This is the pact ♪ On wings of vengeance Taarna finds them Death for barbarians To defend This is the pact But when life's scorned And damage done To avenge This is the pact ♪ Flying over the oasis She is captured And they pull her down ♪ Feeling pain (ah) From the air (ah) Close my eyes (ah) And I am there (ah) I feel I'm falling down in a deep dark pit ♪ "Pull him down," the soldier said "I'll put an arrow in his head" But the bird flew off instead To save his master, on his back she fled Her time has come Riding her bird high in the saddle She gets her chance to fulfill the pact now As their leader swoops from the clouds She sticks him with her sword then she throws him down The enemy shrivel and die The enemy shrivel and die To defend This is the pact But when life's scorned And damage done To avenge This is the pact
