Lyrics

The Gauntlet

Infiltrate mutilate slaughter instigate

Strike again decapitate impale rip flesh

Gauntlets striking rushing through the town

Corpse laying rotting on the ground

Rabid death the plague has won again

History repeating a war dying sin

Lightning thunder starving hunger

Kick down pissed on hell to pay bastard

Pressure mounting the clock counting

Fighting dying children crying
