about

Bladewing was first conceived by the fantastical imagination of Daniel Saunders in the Summer of 2007. It remains one of the oldest Phyrexia tracks, being performed twice at the first ever Phyrexia show in November 2008.

lyrics

Lyrics by Daniel Saunders, arranged by Elliot Beaver

Smoke fills the air, scent of cinder is there
The ground shakes, the earth quakes
In desperate fear I stand, a distant silhouette
Zooming from afar, that visage I shall ne’er forget
A dragon enraged by fire, engulfed in death
Raging ever higher, light the funeral pyre
Roarix Bladewing, guide Thy flame,
Come to strike again!

Sonic boom, sound of thunder
Lightning flashes, death hereafter
Rain of blood, smouldering flesh
Death on red wings, Bladewing forever!

Ground into dust, humans fall to the ground
No-one stands against Bladewing the Risen,
Legendary creature of nightmarish design
Wherefore didst thou rise again?
Necromancy, death in red magic
Summoned destroyer, demon among dragons
Wherefore to feast again? Strike from the grave,
Leave the living in pain!
