ashes of eternity
Singer:blind guardian
the hare once betrayed me
and so did the fox and the crow
there's me and there's space
but how can you try to redeem the past?
it's not real as it seems
and get back to that place
scratch deeper and deeper
and soon i will be on my own
the gods will ignore your end
the lords won't salute you
the saints they won't save you
they'll defend their guardian
the savior won't heal your soul
then from the ashes of eternity
a new order shall take over
at dawn they shall be murdered
that things are not what they may seem
the gods will ignore your end
the lords won't salute you
the saints they won't save you
they'll defend their guardian
the savior won't heal your soul
just once you'll cross the border
the saints come marching in
the saints come marching in
while bright eyes are turning pale
no sign shall be given for ages and more
but from now you will be on your own
the gods will ignore your end
the lords won't salute you
the saints they won't save you
they'll defend their guardian
the savior won't heal your soul
you're getting your grail
but there's no place to go
eastern winds they blow cold
the saints you will bring them down
the savior won't take the crown
