Beyond The Last Horizons

AYREON

Ready for the enemy

Hungry for the battle

Fighting hard for victory

In the army of the king

Armed with shield and sword

We mounted our horses

Leaving on a sacred quest

On our way to fight the holy war



They attacked from different sides Hard pressed with numbers

We could not even run nor hide

We had to stand and fight

Then I felt a blade of steel

Penetrate my armour

I did not dream the pain was real

As I went down I knew my time

Had come



And then he rode into the night Towards that eerie distant light

That seemed to charm him

Until he came to a road that Disappeared beyond the last horizon



He knew there'd be no way back

Once he had vanished in the Blackness of Infinity

And so he gathered all his strength

Not to descend into the valley of death Into the valley of death



I opened up my weary eyes

The haze slowly lifted

The mighty roar of battlecries

Stopped ringing in my ears

I gazed upon a friendly face

He carried me to safety

I told him of this frightening place and Of my journey back from the other side



And then they rode into the night Towards that eerie distant light that Seemed to charm him

A force so seductive and yet so Destructive and cruel

Until he came to a road that Disappeared beyond the last horizon



He knew there'd be no way back

Once he had vanished in the Blackness of infinity



And so he gathered all his strength Not to descend into the valley of death into the valley of

death

I followed that road to the edge of Eternity he knew there'd be no way Back once he had

vanished in the Blackness of infinity

I fought for my life for I had to survive The ordeal

And so he gathered all his strength Not to descend into the valley of death Into the valley of

death
