They come from the Young Kingdoms 

with new hopes and ancient hate 

By thousands they ride to the battlefield 

I can feel the ground shake 

I must rise from my throne 

Champion of Destiny and Pride 

I must leave these ancient halls 

with Stormbringer at my side 



[Chorus] 

For I am the Bringer of War 

I am The Bearer Of The Black Sword 

and my name will be known to all 

Lord Elric of the Bright Empire of Melnibone 

The Dragonlord 



Who will need the illusion 

of new love and new found faith 

When everything around you 

lay destroyed and dead 



I am doomed to walk again 

on the Path Of Destruction 

I'm the last of my Race 

and I must fight my final battle 



[Chorus] 

For I am the Bringer of War 

I am The Bearer Of The Black Sword 

and my name will be known to all 

Lord Elric of the Bright Empire of Melnibone 

The Dragonlord 



[Chorus] 

For I am the Bringer of War 

I am The Bearer Of The Black Sword 

and my name will be known to all 

Lord Elric of the Bright Empire of Melnibone 

The Dragonlord
