Steal away through the land of the dead
Where angels fear to tread
Over mountains, the sky, and the seaFeel the light bleeding from a new moon
Escape from the hands of doom
I never thought I could change what would beBreak the chains of fear
I won't shed another tearThe rise and fall
Although I fight like hell, there's just no certainty
My battlefield lay scarred with empty victories
Running from the past, from a lifetime of lies
But the legend never dies...Here comes the horror, here comes the pain
Flying too close to the flame
Into darkness, now falling from graceFrom the nine realms of woe, I arise
Vindication in my eyes
Lines of tragedy carved deep on my faceBreak the chains of fear
Now it all seems crystal clearThe rise and fall
Although I fight like hell, there's just no certainty
My battlefield lay scarred with empty victories
Running from the past, from a lifetime of lies
But the legend never dies...The rise and fall
Although I fight like hell, there's just no certainty
My battlefield lay scarred with empty victories
Running from the past, from a lifetime of lies
But the legend never diesThe legend never dies
