So here we stand between the gates Upon the dawn the eagle waits His tallons shine like daggers On the wings of revolution In pain the madman staggers But there is no solution
Another sword upon a throne But now the jester laughs alone
Beneath this cloak of treason Appears a thousand faces The truth must stand to reason For those who's heart it chases
Beyond the world of mortal man Within this sanctuary the spectre begins to tremble They lay his spear upon the plan
On a sea of diamonds lies a ship of glass Through the mist the torches pass
Their banners fly in splendour The ghosts of night decended With grace their souls surrender The seal must be defended
Still the dragons reign supreme Breathing fire till we scream They leave us nothing but our dreams
No shield can save us It's gonna take a miracle We're searching for a miracle It's gonna take a miracle We're searching for a miracle
Stand clear, there's storm above And there is something left to fear All speed, before the blade is drawn And there is blood upon the seed
Let no one yield we're on the field
Where deeds eclipse the sun Where the brave are told on a thread of gold The tapestry is spun As they speak of dreams their amour gleams There's calm before the storm But all can see their destiny The bishop takes the pawn
In the sky the arrows fly Each one to it's mark Defend the true lead us through This voyage in the dark Make us strong you know right from wrong Teach us what it's worth Cos every heart that aches is what it takes To save our mother earth
Lay your life upon the line It's death for glory every time You give up yours and I'll keep mine
No shield can save us It's gonna take a miracle We're searching for a miracle It's gonna take a miracle We're searching for a miracle
So here we stand between the gates Upon the dawn the eagle waits His tallons shine like daggers On the wings of a revolution In the pain the madman staggers But there is no solution
Still the dragons reign supreme Breathing fire till we scream They leave us nothing but our dreams
No shield can save us It's gonna take a miracle We're searching for a miracle It's gonna take a miralce We're searching for a miracle
