Twisted Tower Dire
Album • 2003
At night I try to wake when it steals into my dreams Shapeless one designed by hate is ever following Frozen by an unseen force, I begin to suffocate Words defy to tell the tales of this place hidden by night And when the night falls on this town Whose shadow moves without a sound Come ride with us tonight Fearless child of wind and fire Let your burning heart take into flight ..Oh, At Night Do what must be done, so fight! Hold aloft your sword to the midnight sky To fear the night's unknown is to give evil strength Now he in wait because it's coming back again So rise to meet the force that's tortured your beliefs You'll find the will inside to show what evil brings And when the sun starts going down Who'll stay to see what comes around Crystal clear are the eyes which gaze Past The Neverness Sea into infinity Tonight your ivory horse is waiting in the sky The Nethermists now rise before the city's skyline Vindication's come for those who've beat the odds This time you're twice the wiser, knowing what once was And when all is said and done We'll see who's run or stood their ground Face the one who walks at night Before it's you who crosses into the light

Shadows moving in the distance Time of judgment drawing near We must face the growing terror And we must face it without fear From four corners it was written That the horseman would arrive Their goal to decimate the faithful And scorch the world with ancient fire Some Other Time, Some Other Place Will we find all we've longed for or die in disgrace? Some Other Time, Some Other Place Do you have your life in order? Just in case you don't survive Is our mission one of valor Or calculated suicide? Some Other Time, Some Other Place Will we find all we've longed for or die in disgrace? Some Other Time, Some Other Place At the end of our lives will we accept death's embrace? Some Other Time, Some Other Place

We are the mighty, yes we are the brave With a selfless conviction, never to stray From the first of October, thru a midsummer's day We bear The Crest of the Martyrs Our passion won't fade Come join our crusade With axes and honor, our way of life's saved Come do not be afraid With axes and honor, our victories gained We'll strike from the mountains, thru the valley's below Across land and water, our legions will go We're taking their women, none to dig a grave We'll reprogram their children, to fight in our name We held onto a dream, of a better life one day to be Standards held high, hearts filled with pride For what we've done to be free Return to a time when fortunes fell to the edge of a sword Honor was none to those hearts who were pure We've brethren in England, Germany and Spain Forged in the truest fires Many fall to their blades We know many Greek warriors Much too many to name And the fight is undying in the home of the brave

Are you prepared to pay the price? Do you know the pain of sacrifice? Is there a fire burning deep inside of you? You've fought for this moment for so long Your body grows weary, your will is strong You're finally standing right where you belong Hear the cheering voices rise You stand before the crowd with your arms raised high You know the feeling that won't fade with time To be a champion! To be a champion! Many shall falter, so few prevail Future generations will tell your tale The modern day warrior's fight to never fail Those who will face you to strike you down Show them no mercy, leave no one in doubt There is no other deserving of the crown

We stare in the eyes of assassins Our courage never falters, never to fail Cowards them all lurking in darkness In the end you'll pay Infinitum - falling into black Infinitum - screaming We are leaving On a journey into the unknown Forever believing the promises made long ago Spirits of warlords now beckon Drawing us closer to where heroes belong To join the souls of the valiant The daring, the fearless, the noble, the strong! So proudly we watch from a distance In our memory warriors fight to the grave Our warcries resound through the vastness of time To provide inspiration to the hearts of the brave

Leading me through darkened halls My hands are bound and tied Echoes of all of those Who have come to watch me die The hooded man is whispering "Forgive what I must do" All is well when this day ends No blame will come on you I'll die for what's right and I'll fight to be free Free from the madness forever haunting me I'll give all I can, spill my blood upon the sand No one can change what is meant to be Fight to be free Archers on the tower's walls I pray your aim is true Fell the guards first at my side And then I'll make my move Swords men hidden within the crowd Be quick and draw your blade Use your skills for my release And martyrdom some other day

In a place where the night's forever And the wolves will never dare There's an evil magic in the air, beware! There's a price for those who wonder What lies within the wizard's lair Into the night on a fateful journey Never to return Beyond the edge of the wild Into the clutch of the wizard Woe oh oh, there's no return Dark cries and witch's laughter Mocking you for the truth you're after Another fool ignored the oracle Another life to increase the power Steal their souls and erase their minds See his fire pierce the midnight sky! In the cult of the wizard Enchantment tempts all those who've seen In the sign of the dragon A dream trance draped in mystery In the cult of the wizard Where your mind is part of his machine In the sign of the dragon Oh the children will never be seen again

I am reckless abandon, in my clutch I hold the key Of all that will and will not be, I can see the future I am the dealer of pain, in every tragic deadly day I could wish it all away Have fire fall like rain Erasing every trace of man Steal the stars out of the sky Humanity crucified Kingdoms crumble by my hand Those who breathed the poison, how it dried their veins away To dust they will return, madmen I've created Oh the blood they spill for me, as their rotting minds decay
False gods are closing in on sacred ground tonight With holy steel in hand, ourselves to sacrifice Just pray the future will recall Against an empire we stood tall By the light of dawn they saw The blood of martyrs slain Deep inside the hands of doom Life force of noble men In the darkest night 'twas clear The sign of errors grave Five true spirits had remained Deeds done upon this night will echo in beyond We the few who still remain, we're gonna face the fall Oh son of Odin hear my call Against an empire we stood tall

Silence has now fallen It echoes thru the trees Resonating energy There's magic in the forest, for those who will believe I wonder what the future holds for me In the reflecting pool We've spent a lifetime, searching for this place Of which legend has sown To peer into the years, and witness what shall be Stories only time will tell Beware of what you seek in the water There's no escaping what you'll discover Turn Away Can you face what's been foretold in time Don't tempt fate, the water doesn't lie Is this a nightmare, we see before our eyes? Such malice man has never known We cannot seem to turn from this magnificent madness Into the horror we are drawn It's all too clear now, what has to be done To save our world from bitter end To ensue a life of peace for centuries to come We enter the water one by one He of the jackal is born, earthquakes tear the land The abomination of desolation, 1260 days of tribulation Unbefore seen atrocities, unrestrained savagery Nation against nation, kingdom against kingdom Fire erupts from the heavens

As the smoke clears all the children's tears, turn to dust in the wind The taker of life, a sacrifice, we know the end is near In the distant haze the fires blaze, burning down all that remains A wizard's greed the ball has foreseen, what this world will be And the witch's eyes burn It's the year of the dragon it's the time of the beast Witches and warlocks are gathering to feast On the screams of their victims in the night The sand in the hourglass is running fast, no one knows how long it will last Because dreams never to come true...in the witch's eyes Nowhere to run to, there's now where to hide There is no escaping the torment inside, that your life was only a dream Now your life is fading away Satan laughing seals your fate Of burning in the flames In the witch's eyes
