I've seen the power of cosmic ruin I've felt the fury That came before the doom The wars and horrors as empires rise and fall I heard the call of the storm When the world was young Where might & magic Reigned When the world was young And free from all it's pain When the world was young I wish I could remain In the place I had known for so long When the world was young The works and wonders with powers yet unknown Enchanting secrets of ancient legends gone No creature great or small, would ever come to harm The hills would ring with the call of their song But then the sky turned red And all their majesty fell silent forevermore When the world was young Where might & magic Reigned When the world was young And free from all it's pain When the world was young Forget the inhumane You must fight for the world, break it free from it's chains Remember all you have learned If we are ever to survive One day the world will return When the world was young Where might & magic Reigned When the world was young And free from all it's pain When the world was young Forget the inhumane You must fight for the world, break it free from it's chains When the world was young Where might & magic Reigned When the world was young And free from all it's pain When the world was young I wish I could remain in the place I had known for so long When the world was young

We were born under dusk and the moonlight In the eye of an infinite burning star Doomed to roam lands afar Prophecy with the promise of birthright Fighting strong with no fear we will carry on Facing the great beyond Flee the surface and take to the skies Fly before it's too late Charge the engines before we meet our fiery fate Defy the night, Shoot for the starlight Traveling deeper into the unknown Defy the night, Shoot for the starlight Seeking our home Cast adrift in the shadows and darkness Sacrificing the seeds that we have sown Cursed forever to roam Destiny of the lost and helpless Reaching out through the chaos of space and time Rising we will shine Pay no heed to the demons of doubt Know it's never too late Steel your heart & find the will to seize your fate Defy the night, Shoot for the starlight Traveling deeper into the unknown Defy the night, Shoot for the starlight Seeking our home Defy the night, Shoot for the starlight Traveling deeper into the unknown Defy the night, Shoot for the starlight Seeking our home Defy the night, Fire at midnight Leaving our world for the horrors untold Defy the night, Fire at midnight Seeking our home Finding a light in the dark Defy the night

Without Honor, without glory, we shall never return Without power we'll rise then fall Without Honor, without glory, we shall never prevail We shall heed the call of our kingdom again Once we ruled the land, coast to coast, swords at hand Bearing the Crest of our house, clashing steel, no remorse We, the bringers the of light, riding down Without fear we claimed it all Ignoring the portents of doom Without Honor, without glory, we shall never return Without power we'll rise then fall Without Honor, without glory, we shall never prevail We shall heed the call of our kingdom again With our backs to the wall, darkness and fear taking grip on our hearts Watching our Empire fall, losing sight of our will and our hope We, the ghosts of the brave, lost and forlorn Reaping all that we have sown, Awaiting our time to return Without Honor, without glory, we shall never return Without power we'll rise then fall Without Honor, without glory, we shall never prevail We shall heed the call of our kingdom again Freedom for us all! These were our fields, these were our shores! Bound and wrapped in Chains, fires of rage, burning our souls! Without honor, we will, never return Without power, we will, never endure Without glory, we will, never prevail WE SHALL RISE AGAIN! Bound by honor, seeking glory we will never give in Wielding power we'll vanquish our foes Bound by honor, seeking glory we shall reclaim our throne Our kingdom shall rise again Bound by honor, seeking glory we will never give in Wielding power we'll vanquish our foes Bound by honor, seeking glory we shall reclaim our throne HONOR, POWER, GLORY rings out through the night
