On a cold winter morning, in the time before the light    In flames of death's eternal reign we ride towards the fight    And the darkness is falling down and the times are tough all right    The sound of evil laughter falls around the world tonight       Fighting high, fighting on for the steel    Through the wastelands evermore    The scattered souls will feel the hell that is wasted on the shores       On the blackest waves in history    We watch them as they go    Through fire, pain and once again we know       So now we're flying, 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       [CHORUS]    So far away we wait for the day    For the lights are so 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 raise their hands to the heavens above    With resentment in their eyes   Running back through the mid-morning light    There's a burning in my heart    We're banished from the time in the fallen land    To a light beyond the stars       In the 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    All alone in 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       CHORUS       Now here we stand with their blood on our hands    We've fought so hard now can we understand?    I'll break the seal of this curse if I possibly can    For freedom of every man       CHORUS
