Prelude
02:40
|
|||
Many moons ago, in a land not so far away,
there roamed a wizard, forever searching for the truth.
Accompanied by his loyal hound Landoni, the mage wandered the realm.
Over stormy mountains, and wild wastelands, across space and time,
the wizard walked a path of mystery, to see all that could be seen.
This is a tale of knowledge, justice, and power, but also of love, turmoil, and loss.
Turn back now, those who are feint of heart.
For the truth, can sometimes be too much to bear.

Way of The Wizard
05:55
|

Silken robes, wooden pipe in hand
Burning that sweet, sweet leaf, as the sun starts to climb
Ink, quill, and spellbook, quarterstaff in tow,
Pouched packed with potions, it’s the mage’s time to go
Secret keeper, conjurer of tricks
Never telling more than what has been asked
Mystic of mystery, watcher of the world
Forever on a journey, to peer behind the veil
Ancient terrors, corrupt souls,
Demon fire, prophecies foretold
Iron arrows flood the sky
Who will you turn to when all goes awry?
This is a reckless road, leave all doubt behind
The truths you’ll find when you walk the Way of The Wizard
Look deep within your mind, power is locked inside
You’ll find the key when you walk the Way of…
Through the winding, Misty Mountains
Beyond the red oak trees, stepping over fallen leaves
In sunken temples, solving riddles on the wall
Crawling through dungeons, drinking in dwarven halls
Searching for answers to questions no one knows
The wizard carries on, through the arctic snow
Ancient terrors, corrupt souls,
Demon fire, prophecies foretold
Distant planets, fallen stars,
Hidden meanings from afar
This is a reckless road, leave all doubt behind
The truths you’ll find when you walk the Way of The Wizard
Look deep within your mind, power is locked inside
You’ll find the key when you walk the Way of The Wizard
Ancient terrors, corrupt souls,
Demon fire, prophecies foretold
Iron arrows flood the sky
Who will you turn to when all goes awry?
This is a reckless road, leave all doubt behind
The truths you’ll find when you walk the Way of The Wizard
There is no guarantee that you will understand
All that you’ll see when you walk the Way of The Wizard
But on this pilgrimage for lost knowledge
The truths you’ll find when you walk the Way of The Wizard

Ode to Dog

Love unlike any other
No bond stronger
In the day walking in the sun
In the night in a thunderstorm
I’m there for you, and I know you are too
I’ll be with you ‘til the end
Holding you in my arms
While you’re young, we’ll see the world
When you grey, we will still play
In the day walking in the sun
In the night in a thunderstorm
I’m there for you, and I know you are too
I’ll be with you ‘til the end
Holding you in my arms

Bad Man
03:22
|
|||
In the west there are whispers of a drifter clad in black
His crossbow at the ready, alone he walks the path
Those who try to bring him down
Find themselves six feet in the ground
Nameless nomad in untamed lands
Never mess with that bad, bad man
No care for good or evil, whoever has the gold
If you’re the one he’s after, don’t plan on getting old
You can say he’s just a myth,
But myths don’t kick down the door
Red starlight guides his way
Wandering for eternity
Fire in the distance, blood is on the wind
Signaling that its time to roam again.
One more time.
There’s no use losing sleep
Over things you can’t control
Just face the sweet music
When your bell begins to toll
Those who try to bring him down
Find themselves six feet in the ground
If you’re brave you can try your hand
But don’t say I didn’t warn you
Bout that bad, bad man

Last Stand of the Damned
06:00
|
|||
The sun is rising on the soldiers for the last time
They marched through the night to fight for what’s right
They stood their ground so brave
And it’s earned them an early grave
War is made in towers of ivory
But war is fought between brothers
They lay down their lives for their land
Heroes, damned
Their backs against the wall
They know their odds are small
They would not bend a knee to evil men
Their loyalty would be their end
War is made in towers of ivory
But war is fought between brothers
They lay down their lives for their land
The Last Stand

The Night Taketh Away
05:07
|
|||
The moon arrives again
And with it comes the screams
The evening brings its tragedies
No one is spared from loss
Each night someone lays their head
Down for the last time
So live while you can because,
It looks like you’re next in line
Bring down the hammers, bring down the walls
Bring forth the chaos when darkness starts to fall
The Night Taketh Away
Don’t fear tomorrow, this is your final day
You think that I’m wrong
You believe you can cheat death
The clock is ticking faster now
Doom is just around the bend
There’s no one who will hear your prayers
Best to save your breath my friend
Bring down the hammers, bring down the walls
Bring forth the chaos, when darkness starts to fall
The Night Taketh Away
Don’t fear tomorrow, this is your final day
Find your life’s purpose
Take every risk you can
There’s nothing on the other side
This is all that you get
Bring down the hammers, bring down the walls
Bring forth the chaos when darkness starts to fall
Bring down the hammers, bring down the walls
Bring forth the chaos, when death finally calls
The Night Taketh Away
Don’t fear tomorrow, this is your final day
