Lyrics To the End of the World - Alestorm

To the End of the World

A codex of doom from a deep catacomb
A dusty old volume of lore
Hidden within this annal of sin
Confounding the doctrine of sphere
Science has lied since the dawn of mankind
This world is a fragment of four
3000 years of deception must end
Free from the shackles of time
Conjectural convolution
Exposing mathematical flaws
Armed with sedition and armored with truth
Lay waste to the doctrine of law
Ride into the storm!
To the end of the world!
(Under the sign of the cube of time)
Ride into the storm!
Set fire to the sky!
(The truth will be told as the circle unfolds)
Ride into the storm!
To the end of the world!
(Onwards we go to the world below)
Ride into the storm!
Defying the tide!
(Questing the seas with a vengeance)
We’re riding the storm
To the end of the world
Perspective is why
The earth and the sky
Converge into one
This can’t be undone
As sure as hell
Lies deep down below
Around the earth
The sun doth go
Haunted by dreams of a perilous quest
The nightmare revolves in my mind
A vision unfolds, the mission is clear
Set sail to the end of the world
Wielding the time-cube, my voyage begins
Westward into the unknown
Once and for all the truth will be told
Heliocentric demise
Empirical revolution
Fighting the fraudulent scourge
Over the apex and to the unknown
Cross the terrestrial verge
Ride into the storm!
To the end of the world!
(Under the sign of the cube of time)
Ride into the storm!
Set fire to the sky!
(The truth will be told as the circle unfolds)
Ride into the storm!
To the end of the world!
(Onwards we go to the world below)
Ride into the storm!
Defying the tide!
(Questing the seas with a vengeance)
We’re riding the storm
To the end of the world
Cross the firmament
Over the edge of darkness
Cronos guide the way
Through the Elysian Fields
Cross the firmament
Over the edge of darkness
Cronos guide the way
Through the Elysian Fields
Face reality
Shatter the false deception
Taste enlightenment
Of the true nature of time
Face reality
Shatter the false deception
Taste enlightenment
Of the true nature of time
Forged in the fires of chaos
Earth is a fragment of time
Onwards, voyaging onwards
Far we have followed the sign
The price of our human existence
Paid in the sins of the past
Aeons, spiraling aeons
Entropy conquered at last
Ride into the storm!
To the end of the world!
(Under the sign of the cube of time)
Ride into the storm!
Set fire to the sky!
(The truth will be told as the circle unfolds)
Ride into the storm!
To the end of the world!
(Onwards we go to the world below)
Ride into the storm!
Defying the tide!
(Questing the seas with a vengeance of human existence)
We’re riding the storm
To the end of the world
