2. Burning Skies

Riding down the astral plane
from the twilight world I come
A force to drive a man insane
Tonight, I come undone

From the world between the worlds
where time unfurled
I am the one who won't die!

When the day of judgement dawns
sacrifice the pawns
he is the one who won't die!

Here, the tears run dry
the shackles that will tie
your soul to mine, lives entwine

Break the ties, under burning skies!
From the darkness and the depths I will arise
As a fallen God, from the burning sky
I will hear your cry
For I am the one who won't die!
Reveal your lie under burning sky!

Riding down the astral plane
To the point of no return
A fate to drive a man insane
tonight the world will burn

From the dark within the dark
the shadow ark
I am the one who won't die!

To the edge and far beyond
see what I've become
he is the one who won't die!

Here, the answers lie
the fate that they imply
before the fall, I enthral

Break the ties, under burning skies!
From the darkness and the depths I will arise
As a fallen God, from the burning sky
I will hear your cry
For I am the one who won't die!
And I defy under burning sky!

Tonight, let hope depart
The answers lie deep within your heart
Riding the fire of the sky
I devour and I'll see you die!

Break the ties, under burning skies!
From the darkness and the depths I will arise
As a fallen God, from the burning sky
I will hear your cry
For I am the one who won't die!
And I defy under burning sky!

3. Land Of Broken Dreams

We travelled far, we rode the night
We saw the fires burning bright
into the sacred skies of fate

They came in dark, disguised as friends
They killed the king and slaughtered men
They hailed a demon's reign

So they came, defiled the holy crown
Our lord is dead, there is blood on the ground
On this night now the terror is back
On fields of battle, a coward's attack

Come with me
To a land of broken dreams
Where darkness rises and shadows rule the night

Fly with me
To the land of broken dreams
Where heroes ready for the fight
In the land of broken dreams!

We fled that night, many were caught
And others killed, we almost thought
that we would not get out alive (now)

Shiranion rules in black of night
A shadow lord who feasts on fright
The bane of great Alcador!

With the darkness came a fearsome sight
We cursed his name and we damned the night
We ran through shadows and the firestorm
We fled the night from the demonspawn!

Through the night and the pouring rain
The city alight and devoured by flame
The last one survivor is running from hell
We all remember how Alcador fell!

Save us! The stars are falling
Save us! The angels calling
Save us! The creature's laughing
Save us!

4. Dragonslayer

Living under shadows
Beneath the wings of blackest night
A chosen one of fire comes
To stand up to the fight

The lion of our vengeance
A saviour in the sun
Bearing sword of legacy
The Chosen One has come

Raise the eye of the storm today
Ride the wings of the night!
Lift the curse of the dark dismay
Chosen one to the fight!

Lionheart
Not saved by poem nor prayer
Bind the night
You are the Dragonslayer

Firelight
Is guiding the way of the strayer
And blind the night
He is the Dragonslayer

High atop the mountain
They are dwelling in the clouds
The realm of Gods and Warriors
The Crest of Dragons proud

Bear the sword of reason
Tear the darkness away
Corruption, death and treason
Never walk astray!

Raise the eye of the storm tonight
Ride the winds of the brave
Honor the glorious way of the knight
Defy the grasp of the grave

Warrior
Not saved by poem or prayer
Bind the night
You are the Dragonslayer

Firelight
Is guiding the way of the strayer
And blind the Night
Glorious Dragonslayer

Riding the thunder to gates of the heavens
where fire and ashes will cloud the sky
The dragon redeeming with iron voice screaming
A thousand vile curses, a faithless lie

Hear the secrets see the sign
Feel the darkness in his mind

Lionheart
Not saved by poem nor prayer
Bind the night
You are the Dragonslayer

Firelight
Is guiding the way of the strayer
And blind the night
He is the Dragonslayer

5. Wings Of The Night

Dragon:
Come closer, come nearer, and tell me how you lied
I hear it, I see it, I'll have it all denied
I bear the Sight of Reason, I have the Eye of Truth
Uncovering your treason, I'll slay you in your youth

Dragonslayer:
I am the chosen warrior, I come to pierce your heart
I am the Dragonslayer, I tear your soul apart
I bear the grace of angels, I am the sword of man
I come to fulfill prophecy, I'll slay you where you stand

In the shadows
In the night
In the absence of all light
In the darkness
In the cold
A shadow now takes flight

Dragon:
On clouds of darkness rising
I bleed silver shining light
The sins of man chastising
I soar on Wings of the Night
On dreams of madness flying
I break the dark in two
The saintly beast, undying
I bear the Wings of the Night!

Dragonslayer:
I fear not claw nor armor, I fear not fiery breath
I challenge Gods almighty, tonight, I defy death
I wield the Eye of Storm tonight, I bear the royal sign
I come to save and justify, when sun and moon align

Dragon:
I fear not sword nor emblem, fear not piercing steel
My blood cries out for vengeance, my hot breath you will feel
I bear the wrath of angels, I am the doom of man
I come to defy prophecy, my breath will scorch the land

Dragonslayer:
In the shadows
In the night
In the absence of all light
In the darkness
In the cold
A shadow now takes flight

Dragonslayer:
On clouds of darkness rising
You bleed silver shining light
Divine blood disguising
You soar on Wings of the Night
On dreams of madness flying
You break the vow in two
The saintly beast is dying
On broken Wings of the Night

Dragon & Dragonslayer:
On clouds of darkness rising
We bleed silver shining light
The fall of man devising
We soar on Wings of the Night!

On dreams of madness flying
We break the dawn in two
The Slayer and the Dying
We fly on Wings of the Night!

6. Vaults Of Heaven

In the raging sea we're lost
In the hour of the wolf
We must pay a higher cost
Into the void of black we're tossed

As the dying light must cease
At the end of our days
As we're torn here, piece from piece
And as we fade into the haze

We face our fears
And we're fighting back the tears
We fly tonight – into the light!

If forever is ended
With the stardust in our eyes
And the ancient scars are mended
And our souls take to the skies

To the open vault of heaven
On the wings of our dreams
We will journey through the celestial streams

In the setting of the sun
as the shadows start to fall
with the end that's now begun
When we heed the siren's call

We live our lives
And we're fighting to survive
We rise tonight – to find the light!

If forever is ended
With the stardust in our eyes
And the ancient scars are mended
And our souls take to the skies

To the open vault of heaven
On the wings of our dreams
We will journey through the celestial streams

I can see their eyes are closed
and in my heart, they'll sleep

If forever is ended
With the stardust in our eyes
And the ancient scars are mended
And our souls take to the skies

To the open vault of heaven
On the wings of our dreams
We will journey through the celestial streams

And with all our hopes misgiven
And our trust in shatters spilt
When by grief and doubt we're riven
We will conquer heaven's quilt

In the open vault of heaven
On the wings of our dreams
We will journey through the neverending streams

7. The Longest Night

Long is the night that the swordsmen must ride
Late is the hour we heed you!
Need is the tempest that drives our ships
And valour the helmsman that guides them
Ride now with honour, ride now with pride
In the morrow looms the fight!

Through night and shadow we shall come
And embrace the dawn

The Longest Night we ride
With fire at our side
The Darkest Night is come
With a fear we will succumb to

The longest night we fight
With darkness blurring sight
The deepest night we run
Tomorrow waits the sun!

Trusting in steel and the bowstring alone
Defying the night hours we ride on
Thunder ahead and the fires below
Through the darkness we stride on
With hearts pounding faster and glory in mind
The vanguard is speeding on and on

Through night and shadow we shall ride
through the longest night...

Night is falling, a doubt grips me
whether doom or darkness await
Caught on the edge of the shores of night
In the midst of the raging maelstrom
Will the stars in the heavens still guide our way?
Will the fallen angels rise up
To end this longest night...?

8. Hero's Return

Believed he had fallen
In the breath of the beast
But he is back now, the lion released

Fate hath no leashes to tame his wild heart
Desire for greatness his soul shall impact

See, the hero is back
Back from the grave
See how he rises, audacious and brave
See the fate earned, the evil one burned
It is the dragonslayer's return

Riding the tempest
From the depths of the night
Sound all the trumpets, the beacons ignite!
Living forever in the song of the dead
Returning in splendour
The message be spread!

The tide of destruction
Is stemmed by his sword
The chosen is back now, all hail our lord

Hail! Hail the one, hail ourlord
Praise his kingdom restored!
Hail the one, hail our lord
Praise and grant his just reward!

As the darkness claims our land
We must brave them, and make a stand
With the fires burning on high
Where the fallen angels lie

9. The Ride

HOO! The irons high
Let the thunder be our guide
And the water be our sanctuary
And the wind be on our side

The hooves are pounding
And the horns are sounding
As our torches light up the night
In shadows mourning
Ere the day is dawning
And the darkness is cast into light!

Horses are snorting
And the muscles aching
And sweat is running in our face
Hatred's boiling as the world is turning
Faster and faster speeds the race

And out of the shadows
And out of tire shades
From night to day and back again
Lo and behold! The riders of hate
As they ride on their crusades

HOO! The irons high
Let the thunder be our guide
And the water be our sanctuary
And the wind be on our side

HOO! Hear The Ride!
On the wings of wrath we fly
Into the crimson velvet skies
That shine in fiery eyes!

On the horizon a red sun is rising
And the enemy is now in sight
His force is great, we face a dire fate
Yet there is no end to this ride!

"Godspeed to you!
Our hearts must he true"
Says the general, and we obey
The last command for the final stand
Let the hammer of truth show the way!

And into the darkness
And into the night
Beyond the dawn awaits the fight
Lo and behold! The riders unite
A force in splendour, honour and might

10. Alcador

With dawn that comes we are free
And for all the land to see
The flag of Alcador yet flies
To tell our story to the skies
Through the fires of the dark
Where all light was but a spark
Now the sacred heroes ride
To the Gates of Morning Light

Shining bright with the angels calling
From the dark where the shadows fall
Riding! Rising!
To stand before us all!

Here we are
In a land of broken dreams
Where a darkness reigned and thunder ruled the night
Come with us to the
Realm of great Alcador
Where the fate of all
Was guided by one man!

Burn all of your memories, shed your grief
And hold on to your belief
We have made it through the night
Storm the Gates of Morning Light!
With the demon finally dead, fall the shackles of his dread
From the ashes we shall rise once again to rule the skies!

Hark the tale of this nation's saviours
How they fought and died for all
Rise up! Rise now!
To rule above us all!

Afraid in the night
With darkness behind
The dreams of the fallen
The dark stars aligned

We wander on
Into the unknown
To a future uncertain
But not alone

In the wee hours when nightmares tormented our mind
When all terrors of darkness and hell came entwined
With the fires of fury the maelstrom unwinds
And the judgment of angels would shatter mankind
