Cambyses A leader, empowered, through might and mystery Commanding the hearts of, a legion fifty thousand strong This day, the sand stirs in their wake The sun burns its torment Across the dunes of history Steel rule has one intent To reign supreme and rise to divinity The lands you march to take Are stronger than your heart can know In time your will shall break The meek will rise up and streams of blood will flow Hear my words great king; for the vultures are already circling The sands of time dictate your fate imprisoned here As death rains from skies of dread Forced by creation the storms cover the tracks Of your dead Verse III Troops from high and low The dunes howl screams and tortured sounds War defines the meaning Calls him to Sacrifice his kind Gods have sent a curse To take from you Your grand design Cambyses you were doomed from the start of your era The prize you sought, slipped through your hands as dust and air Now find the way ahead Follow the footsteps of your lost, forsaken dead Now find the way ahead Follow the footsteps of your lost, forsaken dead

Oblivion A flurry of clashing swords as battle rages on This vision of beauty strides through the mist claiming her love Too shallow and proud I spurn her gift as faith is scorned One withering gaze shows numbered days from above First I could not see She held destiny Beneath her wings I'll be Damned to oblivion I feel those eyes from blackened skies swear vengeance on me The forces of nature beckon as the storm crows This evil I face, all hope laid waste I’m brought to my knees I watch aghast, I see her at last as blood streams and flows Doomed under this curse In fear immersed On the darkness perched The black soul raven First I could not see She held destiny Beneath her wings I'll be Damned to oblivion. Eyes, like a vault, come and seal me in To a self-made tomb of my own skin I could not see She held destiny Beneath her wings I'll be Damned to oblivion

The Epic Words soft spoken, I hear her in my mind Far from home now, my kingdom is lost in time Men of iron fist, raised all Troy to dust Now the sea beneath me, damns my eyes to Searching the stars for a sign to appear Please hear my call as the days turn to years A path wrought with evil, through which I must find The way to reclaim my home I can resist Withstand anything from you Faith lies bleeding; truth lives until the end Good men fought years still strong to the core So many gone now, lost to horrors not seen before Still I hear their cries, now forgotten lives But their story ends here, alone I cling to Searching the stars for a sign to appear Please hear my call as the days turn to years A path wrought with evil, through which I must find The way to reclaim my home I can resist Blood insists Reverie Love endures
