Dragonforce

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 fly ever 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

[Refrain:]
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
As we send them to their lies
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

[Refrain]

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

[Refrain]

Flying over darkened skies the battle will call
Destiny is calling we'll be out of the storm
And the world falls under the starlight
Shining from heavens below

Ride the wings of pain and sorrow searching for more
Gliding on the wings of sorrow, just never before
And the stars fall on the horizon
Onwards and up through the pain

Ride the wind and fight the demon, steel shining bright
Standing together forever onwards, flames burning strong

I live in hell of pain and sorrow now and never onwards
We stare into the dawn of a new world

Cry out for the fallen heroes lost some time ago
In our minds they still live on when the sands of time are gone

[Refrain:]
Rise over shadow mountains blazing with power!
Crossing valleys, endless tears, in unity we stand
Far and wide across the land, the victory is ours
On towards the gates of reason
Fight for the truth and the freedom, Gloria

Searching through the memories to open the door
Living on the edge of life like never before
When the crowd chants under the moonlight
Facing their fears all the same

Hell is spilling open wide enough for the core
All this time we're allied to the angels before
And the world cries out from the silence
Lost in the voices unknown

I deny the force of evil, cries into the night
Living before in the seas of darkness, now they're all gone
Out from the shadows storming on the wings of revelations
Your soul will feel no mercy behind the door

Hold on for the morning after never to let go
When the fire's burning strong
And the time to try and hold on

[Refrain]

Cry out for the fallen heroes lost some time ago
In our minds they still live on when the sands of time are gone

[Refrain]

Bursting through the fires of empty
Fatal warrior, battles are raging
Power of darkness rise for the fight
We're strong and stand our ground

Death is all around us and my heart is beating weaker
Fight the demon, power of immortal souls arise

Fire in our hearts the evil rages on for evermore
Burning in the cold the battle rages now

Through damnation rise, sign of the times
Master of bleeding eyes
Thunder and high, look to the sky
They're never gonna take us down!

[Refrain:]
And we will cross the evil standing
On the... in the fire
Storming there beyond the lost horizons, oh
Heroes of the night are calling
See the promised land is falling
Reaching for the powers deep inside
On through the night

Blinded by the hate and desire
Burning in your heart like a fire
Challenging you - suffer and fear
Horizons seek control
Blood spills all around us
And our enemies grow nearer
Sacrifice your life to have
The journey you will ride
Take us to the plains of death and carry on for evermore
Riding on the wings of memories long gone!

And you'll die for your crimes, sign of the times
Master of endless lies
Fight to the end, now we ascend
Together we will take them down!

[Refrain] (x2)

Here we are far beyond the distant sky
We've seen all the world and how the story will be over
Through the snow and tainted mountains we have climbed
Now we have found the light that guides us over

Through the fallen rain we travelled far and wide
And through the blackest darkness
Stars above shining bright

Through the sun and winter rain we'll fall
All our lives we have been waiting for a sound to call
We're walking hand in hand in dreams and endless time
How do we know when we will leave this life behind?

Staring life through eyes of mine to hate the fear and the pain
There's a feeling held deep inside - the life you live is in vain

[Refrain:]
Fly away down the lonely roads of yesterday
Close your eyes to see the light of latter days
And all the memory that time can never heal
With the trail of broken hearts flying free

Once again we walk this lonely road
There are times that we are wading through the rain and cold
We're lost in memories of what we left behind
Relive the dreams, the endless screams of pain inside

Lives are filled with emptiness
The fear returned once again
Searching endlessly now we will see
Drown your mind in the pain

[Refrain]

The last temptation will be all that's left for me

When I see those tears you cry
When I hear those lies you lie
When I see your creation now for an enemy
Is this the reason to be?

[Refrain]

The trail of broken hearts flying free
