Khorne, also known as the "Blood God," "Lord of Skulls," and "the Hound" is the major Chaos God of war, hatred, wrath, rage, murder, blood, strength, courage and martial honor in Warhammer lore. This song specifically was inspired by Skarbrand the Exiled One.
lyrics
Bloodthirsters call
For the chosen to fulfill their share
As long as blood flows forth crimson to
Scar the realm, while red tides overwhelm
Eroding the essence of mortality
Rage embodied finding the next flesh to open spewing forth the fury ever feeding
Bloodfather’s will all-endearing
They seek the glory of his favor
To be enshrined atop the Citadel of Brass
For the glory of his crown break and burn them black
I won't kneel
They swarm
To the boiling pits of blood, coagulate
Becoming one with hate and scorn
Joined in the warp beyond
Resting atop the skull throne, breaching the blackened skies
Sacrifice for his blessings, or lucid insanity
Care not from where blood flows, only that it’s in his name
But you dare betray?
Banished son of boundless hate?
Bringer of wrath and ruin
Corrupt this heart of gold
Descended beyond madness
Betrayer’s curse corrodes
Betrayer; Exiled One
