The Bard's Tale
03:32
|
|||
Dreams of fate are calling me back
I hear the howling of the wind
Shelter now, and weather the storm
A tale of legend shall begin
Of demons, wizards, and once mighty kings
Swords of steel drawn in the night
This tale beyond the shackles of time
Of those who would stand up and fight
Chorus
Sit now by the fire
And quaff your mug of ale
Gather ‘round and listen
To an old bard’s tale
In the song of swords was forged his path
In the strangeness of magick he did arrive
Tried in battle, and crossed by time
A warrior left mystified
Chorus
So now, while the fire grows dim
The poet, he lifts the veil
Rest a while, my friends, and listen
To an old bard’s tale

From the highest mountain
To the torch lit glow of the dungeon lair
Journeyed through the wastelands
Heavy metal madness found me there
Bridge
Sword in hand, my vengeance spread across this evil land
Chorus
War Maker
Spell Breaker
Vindicator
Live to fight and plunder
I seen sights beyond compare
In the misty forests
I fought the beasts of legend there
Bridge
Chorus
Running in the wild
My enemies will know my wrath
With heavy metal power
Oh blood and iron be my path
Bridge
Chorus
I have traveled beyond the veil
Laid waste to reason in my wake
I greet my doom with a mighty hail
From triumph or defeat there is no escape

Oh maiden, from beyond the sea
Tell me your dreams of darkness
I am the one you seek
To lift the veil of blindness
The eye of the kings
A glow to set the way alight
Oh maiden can’t you see?
The wizard he brings the night
Chorus
The wizard and the tower keep
A scourge upon this land
I’ve wandered through the darkness deep
I hold the key in my hand
I am the chosen one
A warrior, a child in time
My destiny before me
What horrors await to find
Chorus
I’ll never turn away
From the evil in my path
I have to journey onward
To the tower vast

The Lost Road
08:07
|
|||
The land falls silent, firelight fades and dark riders appear
With fury, they ride, carrying tidings of fear
Defender of light, raise up your sword, now your battle begins
Usurper of kings, keeper of doom waits within
Chorus
To stride upon the lost road
Beyond the veil of time and space
To stride upon the lost road
I have arrived from a far off place
Into the cold earth, vaulted pass mirrors the streets overhead
And deeper beyond, into the halls of the dead
Forgotten by time, warrior tombs of a thousand years
Green sigil ahead, in spectral light old king appears
Chorus
Ascending above, bound iron door opens to your fate
What horrors beyond? Demons and wizards await
Eye of the kings, secrets are lost for a thousand years
The torchlight grows dim, enter the tower of fear
Chorus

Sorcery's Bane
08:44
|
|||
From the roots of the keep ascend
Beyond the binding sigil aglow
Treacherous deeds of the past
The council of light once overthrown
Defile the tower of time
Coiling up into uncertain skies
Demonic servants of doom
Can still hear the wizards’ tortured cries
Torches burn red, an altar of stone
Enter the chamber, a shrine of the wise
Ghastly voice sighs in a language unknown
Tomes of dark knowledge hold man’s demise
Chorus
Spiraling into the sky
Chambers of magick enshrined
Ascending the tower arcane
My sword is sorcery’s bane
Alighted in gold, a sanctum of oak
Songs from the wood all bound, intoned
Beasts of the wild, their howling invoke
Cult sacrifice, no longer they roam
Chorus
Bathed in blue, sword axe and chain
Fury and hatred, the woes of mankind
An altar of steel for the warriors slain
Conquest and warfare, their fates entwined
Chorus
Enter the lair, demonic red eyes
Shrine of the black one, the beast peering low
A gate to the stars, behind the sky
Eye of the kings begins to glow
|

Awaken protector, holding steadfast
Eye of kings glows in a blinding flash
Alien realm beyond the keep
Ruinous land where the old gods sleep
Three curving horns, eight eyes of doom
Giant of metal in sulfurous gloom
Torment and pain, innocence wept
For eons it dreams, in eternity slept
Chorus
Where crystal shadows lay
And steel meets steel
All logic is stripped away
Behind the summoner’s seal
The thief doth awaken the metallic fiend
Powers behold, the wizard’s dream
Weapons of steel harm not its scale
Outlasting time, magick prevails
Placed on the altar, tremble and quake
Chasm engulfs this terror awake
Screaming in fire, thunderous crack
Vortex of time spiraling back
Chorus

Earthwarrior
10:57
|
|||
1. The confrontation
I am the wizard of a thousand years
No wraith, no warlord shall break my spell
Behold the tower of boundless fear
From glory here all conquerors fell
Chorus
Earthwarrior
The Tower shall fall
Earthwarrior
Hear fate’s beckoning call
I am the warrior of all space and time
Demonic guardians lay slain at my feet
I hold the talisman, the planets align
Your treachery will rot in pale defeat
Chorus
As the vortex will swallow the making
And your flesh becomes as dust of the tomb
I take my leave now and release the once-king
Standing in victory to bear not but doom
Chorus
2. The Realization
I have traveled lost way, into the shrouded mists of lore
By the cold, cruel light of day, hath my fate locked the door?
Forever is sealed my fate, the tower falls up to the sky
Forgotten demons of hate, the heaving earth shall sigh
3. The Bard’s Tale (reprise)
Into the past, beyond the gate
What was found, now is lost
Secrets that only time can create
Gather ‘round and weigh the cost
Chorus
So now as the embers glow
A Final verse in wind and hail
Legends told in voices low
In this old bard’s, this old bard’s tale
