Grave Digger - 'Hellfire Crusade' (official audio)

Demons ablaze with burning hate
Legions of souls never hesitate
Savage power, relentless might
The unholy army, bound by night

In this savage world
He stands alone
The ruler
With a heart of stone

Hellfire crusade
A soul in torment
When the hangman cries
Hellfire crusade
Behind the mask
He's the devil in disguise
Hellfire crusade

Born from the flames of damnation
In the depths of hell's abomination
Bathed in the glow of Lucifer's fire
A soul consumed by dark desire

In this savage world
He stands alone
The ruler
With a heart of stone

Hellfire crusade
A soul in torment
When the hangman cries
Hellfire crusade
Behind the mask
He's the devil in disguise
Hellfire crusade
Hellfire crusade
Hellfire crusade
Hellfire crusade

In this savage world
He stands alone
The ruler
With a heart of stone

Hellfire crusade
A soul in torment
When the hangman cries
Hellfire crusade
Behind the mask
He's the devil in disguise
Hellfire crusade
A soul in torment
When the hangman cries
Hellfire crusade
Behind the mask
He's the devil in disguise
Hellfire crusade
