A writhing mass begins to rise
Great seven-headed beast
An ancient hunger in its eyes
The calm before the feast
Towering terror
Slithering forth
Cthonic creature
Born of the earth
A black mass erupts from the cesspool
Must weigh twenty tons
Its great coils unfurling before me
Blacking out the sun
I brace myself for what's ahead
Look death right in the face
But with every severed head
Two grow back in its place
Decapitation
Will not suffice
Cauterization
This ends tonight
Heads of the Hydra
Fall beneath gold and flame
I will be remembered
History will shout my name
Blessed amputation
Carve out the blight
Viscera coats the golden blade
My instrument of doom
I press a flame against the stump
And cauterize the wound
It's death or glory
But come what may
They'll tell my story
They'll know my name
Heads of the Hydra
Fall beneath gold and flame
I will be remembered
History will shout my name
Heads of the Hydra
Fall beneath gold and flame
I will be remembered
History will shout my name
Heads of the Hydra
Fall beneath gold and flame
I will be remembered
History will shout my name
Sever one head
And two grow back in its place
