| I have seen the kingdom vile
|
| Where flames scorch the blackened sky
|
| I saw this land of freezing dreams
|
| In my dreams I flew with shadow wings
|
| And I have seen a king arise
|
| He rode in flames throughout the sky
|
| This was a forsooth the one foretold
|
| His face was veiled in dust and rime
|
| I saw this vision
|
| In my dreams
|
| Where the fallen seems to rise again
|
| On through the night
|
| I saw him ride
|
| He owned the sky
|
| And his pride burned bright
|
| And the dragon — whispered cold
|
| Like a wind from the north
|
| He opened gates — since aeons closed
|
| And told me when twilight shall come
|
| I have seen the kingdom vile
|
| Where flames scorch the blackened sky
|
| I saw this land of freezing dreams
|
| In my dreams I flew with shadow wings
|
| And I have seen a king arise
|
| He rode in flames throughout the sky
|
| This was a forsooth the one foretold
|
| His face was veiled in dust and rime
|
| This night of mourning winds
|
| The serpent spread his wings
|
| His eyes shone like the moon
|
| «Be on with me», he droned
|
| And through this forlorn night
|
| A choir of doom was heard
|
| The dragon rode the wind
|
| And I was one with him
|
| With shadow wings — I rule the sky
|
| For aeons 'til eternity
|
| I’ll break the world and challenge god
|
| My sword is hunger, plague and sin
|
| I knew my fate was written in the flames
|
| Of the sky, in the fire of his eyes
|
| In the flames of the dragon’s burning eyes
|
| The vision was crystal clear
|
| And yes, I felt the winds
|
| The winds of time, for me they blew cold
|
| And the dragon rode these winds
|
| He flew through time, with shadow wings |
