A flash in the night, a journey through time The Templars are back on the streets Guarded by prowess and the will to survive All led by the guiding light Angels of mercy, guardians of time Shackled and chained through the eternal flame The hammer will slowly arise Heeding the call, one and for all Never surrender, with glory we’ll fall Brothers unite, let’s stand up and fight Fulfilling our fate, we are Heeding the call One step ahead, revealing the past United, together we stand The call of the thunder, the sign to begin This final crusade we will win Angels of mercy, our journey must proceed With hearts all filled up with chivalry The lifeblood that we all need Heeding the call, one and for all Never surrender, with glory we’ll fall Brothers unite, let’s stand up and fight Fulfilling our fate, we are heeding the call Oh, oh, oh… Heeding the call, one and for all Never surrender, with glory we’ll fall Brothers unite, let’s stand up and fight Fulfilling our fate, we are heeding the call

Out in the fields The full moon is rising Enlightens the name on our shields Blessed with pride Steel on our side We're horsemen of thunder The ground starts to shake as we ride Side by side Stormbringer led us into the unknown On wings of glory we will carry on Legacy Of Kings - LEGACY OF KINGS Forever to survive, we’re Riding on the winds - riding on the winds Unchained and free, alive forevermore Deep in the night We circle around them The honor compels us to fight All for one All hewed with steel In the toil of the battle Our enemies fate will reveal And be sealed The chill of the wind keeps on calling our names There’s no turning back now, keep hold of the flame Legacy Of Kings - LEGACY OF KINGS Forever to survive, we’re Riding on the winds - riding on the winds Unchained and free, alive forevermore Now we are here And there is nothing left to fear The secrets of steel The path of glory will reveal Legacy Of Kings - LEGACY OF KINGS Forever to survive, we’re Riding on the winds - riding on the winds Unchained and free, alive forevermore

It's getting closer now The clock strikes midnight time It is the tolling of the judgement bell You fear the dead of night There ain't no place to hide This is your point of no return Now, we are ready to strike again It's getting far too late, my friend Let the Hammer fall We are above the law Let our powers show That we're in full control of your destiny Now, we are ready to strike again It's getting far too late, my friend Let the Hammer fall We're getting closer now The chill of distant eyes You're on a dead end street Into the night Now, we are ready to strike again It's getting far too late, my friend Let the Hammer fall Let the Hammer fall Let the Hammer fall Let the Hammer fall Let the Hammer fall Let the Hammer fall

Can you tell me why It seems so hard to carry on When you hear a voice From long ago, so bittersweet Even though I try, I can not Read between the lines You know I tried, Oh, yes, I tried, what’s wrong Too late to turn back time To look over my shoulder Maybe one day I’ll return again Remember Yesterday And think about tomorrow But you have to live today Oh, lonely yesterday Don’t leave me with the sorrow Cause I have to live today Every morning I awake To see the newborn day To carry on the flame Until the end of time Too late to turn back time To look over my shoulder Maybe one day I’ll return again Remember Yesterday And think about tomorrow But you have to live today Oh, lonely yesterday Don’t leave me with the sorrow Cause I have to live today Oh, oh, oh, don’t you step aside And pretend about the future Oh, oh, oh, never live a lie Don’t you know tomorrow never comes Remember Yesterday And think about tomorrow But you have to live today Oh, lonely yesterday Don’t leave me with the sorrow Cause I have to live today Oh, oh, oh, don’t you step aside And pretend about the future Oh, oh, oh, never live a lie Don’t you know tomorrow never comes

As long as I remember We’ve marched across this land Oh, oh… Reached for a new horizon Pulled by the killing hand Oh, oh… All fed up with lies The time has come To break these chains and fly Here we stand, bound forever more We’re out of this world, until the end Here we are, mighty, glorious At The End Of The Rainbow With gold in our hands We know the treasure lies Beyond the pouring rain Oh, oh… Our quest will last forever For you it’s all the same Oh, oh… No one can deny Our future’s set To reach above the sky Here we stand, bound forever more We’re out of this world, until the end Here we are, mighty, glorious At The End Of The Rainbow With gold in our hands Let’s fly away through the rain Fly high, to ease the burning pain Oh, the colours fading out The light is shining in the night It’s up to you, it’s worth the fight Search before the colours fade Here we stand bound forever more We’re out of this world, until the end Here we are, mighty, glorious At The End Of The Rainbow With gold in our hands

They came at dawn into the morning light Black shadows riding on the mist Prepared for battle, swords were shining bright Filled with anger and harm Came to kill not to charm The sound of metal screaming in the air The time has come where justice rules The endless victims looking up in fear Now, who are the fools Oh, here they come, riders of the sun And they will fight… Back To Back They’re fighting hard, their way to victory Dead bodies lying on the ground They are the soldiers of eternity And their swords spinning around Oh, here they come, riders of the sun And they will fight… Back To Back Kill with power, ready to ride, let’s go They got it all, they’ll never fall But they will fight The night is falling, light will disappear A magic silence fills the place Could read the warning, shining crystal clear Now they were lost for the chase Oh, here they come, riders of the sun And they will fight… Back To Back No, no, no ,no

They search the desert plains In the land of no return To seek out the danger, time to burn They are the righteous ones They’ve come to claim this land Like warriors under command They fight for gold and glory Proclaim the dead man's land Into the dungeons they must go To find the answers, left untold Under the burning sun In danger, eye to eye They all now that someone must die Into the well they’re falling Past immortality Led by temptation and devotion Rendered deathless by the touch of the sword Onwards victory, let us hear your battle cry The enemies will renounce or die Hail the Warriors Of Faith Together they march through the fire Forever they’re lost in this world Onwards victory, let us hear your battle cry The enemies will renounce or die Eternally, they will fall under the sign of victory, Fighting all for one Hail the Warriors Of Faith

I saw your face in the morning sun Oh, I thought you were there I heard your voice as the wind passed me by Silently, whispering my name So many things that I wanted to say Forever left untold I still remember the tears that you shed Over someone else Our love could never die All I can do is cry Save a little prayer for the fallen one There is a light down at memory lane Slowly fading away Still holding on to the dreams torn apart I will follow my heart Our love could never die All I can do is cry Save a little prayer for the fallen one Still on my own, chasing the sun Of a time long ago The shade in my heart, tearing apart Everything that I long for I saw your face in the morning sun Oh, I thought you were there I heard your voice as the wind passed me by Whispering my name Our love could never die All I can do is cry Save a little prayer for the fallen one

Icy water on my hands, the roar of thunder everywhere I close my eyes, I realize I'm far away from home In the Twilight Zone, the shadows mourn Out of the night came the shining... the Metal Age Ivory towers conceal my eyes, caught up in a long lost time Where no one speaks at liberty, they guard their destiny To forge the steel, they will reveal Out of the night came the shining... the Metal Age I'm falling into the breach I'm a stranger in this land I'm falling Standing strong the brave and the elder With scars seldom forgotten above it all Come with us, offering shelter from the icy wind that shiver Come with us to the twilight zone, oh yeah You're welcome to the Metal Age Hear the bell begin to chime, the moonlit skies burst out in flames The time has come, it must be done, let the power be unchained By the force within, let the war begin Out of the night came the shining... the Metal Age

Snow is falling down on this glorious land Colours fading, turning into white again To fallen heroes angels sing, they cry their winter tears Endless mourning days will turn to years So this is goodbye, I take leave of you and Spread your wings and you will fly away now, fly away Now Nothing on earth stays forever But none of your deeds were in vain Deep in our hearts you will live again You're gone to the home of the brave Every solemn moment I will treasure inside Even though it's hard to understand That a silent wind can blow the candle out Taking everything leaving the pain far behind You call out my name, but your voice is fading Into the wind, embraced, you'll fly away now, fly away Now Nothing on earth stays forever But none of your deeds were in vain Deep in our hearts you will live again You're gone to the home of the brave My eyes are closed I feel you're faraway ( so close ) Far beyond that shining star I know you'll find what you've been fighting for Far beyond that shining star Down on bended knee I pray, bring courage to these Souls Make 'em live forever in the heart of the bold So I say farewell my friends, I hope we'll meet again When my time has come to fall from grace So this is goodbye, I take leave of you and Spread your wings and you will fly away now, fly away Now Nothing on earth stays forever But none of your deeds were in vain Deep in our hearts you will live again You're gone to the home of the brave

Grey morning, dawn won the fight Daylight drives away the night Fog's rising out in the fields The birth of winter is in sight Dark shadow's fall from the sky They alight on gallows tree Black feathers, amber beaks Waiting for their Deity Leaves are spinning 'round Lost and never found When the King takes the Crown Can you feel The autumn wind blowing Ravenlord is coming to stay Can you hear The passing bell tolling Ravenlord - takes you far away Sharp talons, pinions of ice They obscure the new-born day Hot breathing freezes to snow Piercing caws lead you astray Leaves are spinning 'round Lost and never found When the King takes the Crown Can you feel The autumn wind blowing Ravenlord is coming to stay Can you hear The passing bell tolling Ravenlord - takes you far away
