The Wizard and the Tower Keep
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 Sword in hand, my vengeance spread across this evil land 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 Sword in hand, my vengeance spread across this evil land War Maker Spеll Breaker Vindicator Running in the wild My еnemies will know my wrath With heavy metal power Oh blood and iron be my path Sword in hand, my vengeance spread across this evil land War Maker Spell Breaker Vindicator 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 War Maker Spell Breaker Vindicator

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 nеver turn away From the evil in my path I havе to journey onward To the tower vast

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 yеars Green sigil ahead, in spectral light old king appears Chorus Ascеnding 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

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

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 relеase the once-king Standing in victory to bеar 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
