Reign of Fire Lyrics

Disturbed in his lair, he came down from his mount

Black in his heart to bathe death on the town

Wakened from slumber upon his gold bed

To tear through the land with his fiery breath

Strangers had come from a faraway land

In search of the treasure, reclaim his domain

Return of the king that would prosper the realm

Promises made for great jewels would held

Aid given

Oaths sworn

Hope restored

A fool's hope no more

Battle rages on

Hope for the dying

Never give in to despair

When darkness rules desire

The glorious ruin at hand

Hinder not the homecoming spoken of old

His crown shall be lifted as songs fill the hall

Restrung harps echo upon carven stone

As wealth overflows from fountains of gold

Bewitched I was not, evil tidings will be

Ruin will find us, death comes swiftly

Ready my bow and black arrow of yore

Prepare for the vengeance that will surely enthrone

Aid given

Oaths sworn

Hope restored

A fool's hope no more

As the town burned

Ashen tears, mourning grey

Seek escape, furnace ablaze

Abandoned arms, the cowards betray

As the town burned

Ashen tears engulfed in flames

Seek escape, furnace ablaze

Abandoned arms, the cowards betray

Yet when all seemed lost

And all arrows spent

The town aglow in flame and smoke

Burning all our homes

The captain of the guard

Took up one last shot

Forged under the mountain of old

Struck heart, a piercing blow

Battle rages on

Hope for the dying

Never give in to despair

When darkness rules desire

Five armies clash at the gate
