the metal age

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. 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

you're welcome to the metal age

hear the bell begins 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.
