The heavens strike fire and lightning hits the ground, <br />
The earth starts to rumble and Thunder to pound.<br />
This war has taken many lives and many still will fall, <br />
We're ready to fight tyranny we have heard the call.<br />
Salvation - Will they show mercy?<br />
Glorious - Will we survive?<br />
Nobel - Majestic and gentile! <br />
Destiny - They start the attack! <br />
I walk through the city where life filled the streets, <br />
Now it's a wasteland full of pain and of needs.<br />
And out of the twilight I see her come near, <br />
She takes my hand and her voice sounds so clear... <br />
It's the final dance in the old world, <br />
The band plays on when the lights go out.<br />
And the setting sun will enlighten the day, <br />
And the morning star will guide my way, <br />
When the time has come to die<br />
She leads me to this empty hall, <br />
A majestic ballroom of long gone times.<br />
The candles shining on the wall, <br />
Like an apocalyptic sign.<br />
I walk through this lost world, full of magic and might, <br />
Enchanted by it's beauty, forgotten is the pain outside.<br />
Out of nowhere an orchestra plays! <br />
She takes my hand and we start to dance, <br />
To this endtime symphonies melancholic and sad.<br />
And once again I hear her voice sound so clear, <br />
Her beautiful lips whisper soft in my ear... <br />
It's the final dance in the old world, <br />
The band plays on when the lights go out.<br />
And the setting sun will enlighten the day, <br />
And the morning star will guide my way, <br />
When the time has come to die<br />
I don't know how long we danced in this hall, <br />
But from one moment to the other it all was gone.<br />
We were dancing under stars on a hill next to town.<br />
The orchestra still played as the bombs struck the ground<br />
And fires burned in the city not far away, <br />
The night shone as bright as a long sunny day.<br />
The bombs they came closer and for the last time I hear, <br />
Her voice whispering soft into my ear...
