Outlaw, Exile of Atlantis  My tribesmen turned on me  They said, I could slay in war  But not in mercy    They tied a girl to a stake to be burned alive  My dagger found her heart mercifully she died    I fled into the sea  Sailing toward my fate  I the Barbarian King    They try to poison me in my wine  They try to kill me in my chambers at night  But I was a man before a King  By This Axe I Rule    Outlaw, Exile of Atlantis  A savage in a foreign land  Valusia was the kingdom  Fate had delivered to my hand    We stormed the castle a howling  My mercenaries and I  Blood drunk wolves in the night    I slew the tyrant King  Took the crown from his gored head  Kull, the barbarian King    They try to poison me in my wine  They try to kill me in my chambers at night  But I was a man before a King  By This Axe I Rule    [Solo]    Outlaw, Exile of Atlantis  I sit the topaz throne  Brooding and seeking  Some sort of meaning alone    I looked into the mirrors of Tuzun Thune  Seeking answers from beyond the stars  Voices cried back to me  Be not bound by the laws of the land  Civilized man can never be free    They try to poison me in my wine  They try to kill me in my chambers at night  But I was a man before a King  Rush in dogs and die!    They try to poison me in my wine  They try to kill me in my chambers at night  But I was a man before a King  By This Axe I Rule    [outro]    Down drowned forests, sunken mountains  Ride the echoes of valor on ghost white steeds  Legacy of Atlantean Kings
