lyrics

Victims of Fate
(MUSIC and LYRICS: S. Vincent)

INTRO:
Doomed the champion is to bear The Black Sword for eternity. Torn from another plane through the winds of time, forever to fight for the lords of the higher worlds. Nameless entities, threatening the balance. But In the end, heroes and gods are just Victims of Fate......

VERSE 1:
A strangely familiar desolate shore
Perhaps in a dream I traversed it before
A dark ship cloaked in mist awaits
Upon we sail the seas of fate

Chosen for the greatest task
Where the future will meet the past
I’ll soon forget all that I saw
Amongst swirling visions beyond chaos and law...

CHORUS 1:
Then we become
The four who are one!
Greater than the sum

VERSE 2:
From the jaws of chaos we escaped
Alone in a strange future I awake
Given a small chance to prevail
Upon the seas of time we soon will sail

I raise the witch’s knife into the storm, I call upon
The last king of Melniboné
With the third one drawn to our side
The Vanishing tower appears, within the sorcerer hides...

CHORUS 2:
Now we become
The three who are one!
Sorcery undone

I met you once before, your name was Ilian
I have had many names, I am a companion to you and your brothers
The time of the conjunction is here
You will determine the fate of the million spheres

ENDING:
Tanelorn
Have I not earned the peace of
Tanelorn
Where are you?
Tanelorn
I wish for release
Tanelorn
Will I find you in
Tanelorn
I wait for the end in
Tanelorn
For some it’s near, for some it’s far
Tanelorn
I’ve paid the price for this burden
