The Strike of the Sword |
| Journey far to foreign lands, across the plains and ancient sands |
| Unified and one again, when I return they’ll understand that… |
| Our story’s in the past and now the future is unknown |
| Will the once forgotten king arise to claim his rightful throne? |
| Will seven empires surely fall unless they heed the prophet’s words? |
| Because the one who makes the call must be the one to deal the strike of the |
| sword… |
| Impending doom, I lead the way, and send my wicked bird of prey |
| The messenger, my one betrothed, to spread the word… |
| Where night is day, somewhere in time, under the moon I set our sights |
| Onto the place where I belong, and storm the gates of Babylon, because… |
| As leaves of winter fall I journey further |
| To find myself and free my spirits burden |
| This conflicts aftermath remains uncertain, I sense a seasons change… |
| Then like a dream the raven stands appointed |
| Bearing the word — another king anointed |
| They took my territory and destroyed it, with time they’ll surely pay… |
| I was protector of the realm, without my rule thy kingdom fell |
| A victory eclipsed by pride, return to Babylon denied |
| I walk the path none dare to go, while battles rage on down below |
| Into the void your power burns, until the day I shall return |
