    This guy is so awesome I created a NPC for him in a D&D campaign. The group arrived to a town where his Nothing Else Matter version was played all the time because the bard left the music on after a wild village party and he was lost. They found him in a Dungeon near by after a fossilized dragon wall, in the cursed treasure chamber. A bit classic yes, they wanted that style lol

    On a cold winter morning
    In the time before the light
    In flames of death's eternal reign
    We ride towards the fight
    When the darkness has fallen down
    And the times are tough alright
    The sound of evil laughter falls
    Around the world tonight
    Fighting hard, fighting on for the steel
    Through the wastelands evermore
    The scattered souls will feel the hell
    Bodies wasted on the shores
    On the blackest plains in Hell's domain
    We watch them as they go
    Through the fire and pain and once again we know!
    Tonight we're flying and we're free
    We're free before the thunderstorm
    On towards the wilderness
    Our quest carries on
    Far beyond the sundown
    Far beyond the moonlight
    Deep inside our hearts and all our souls!
    So far away we wait for the day
    For the light source all wasted and gone
    We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
    Through the fire and the flames we carry on!
    As the red day is dawning
    And the lightning cracks the sky
    They'll raise their hands to the heavens above
    With resentment in their eyes
    Riding back through the midmorning light
    And there's a burning in my heart
    Avenge from the town in the fallen rain
    To a life beyond the stars
    In your blackest dreams we do believe
    Our destiny this time
    And endlessly we'll all be free tonight!
    And on the wings of a dream
    So far beyond reality
    On the road to desperation
    Now the time is gone
    Lost inside you'll never find
    Lost within my own mind
    Day after day this misery must go on!
    So far away we wait for the day
    For the light source all wasted and gone
    We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
    Through the fire and the flames we carry on!
    Who-o-oa, who-o-oa, who-o-o-o-oa!
    Who-o-oa, who-o-oa, who-o-o-o-oa!
    Now here we stand with their blood on our hands
    We fought so hard, now can we understand
    I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can
    For freedom of every man!
    So far away we wait for the day
    For the light source all wasted and gone
    We feel the pain of a lifetime lost in a thousand days
    Through the fire and the flames we carry on!
