Manilla Road - Dreams Of Eschaton lyrics

rate me

I laid myself down into bed

To sleep away the night

A vision from inside my head

A sun with no sunlight

Death would grip humanitiy

A new Solar Ice Age

An Earth that no science could save

I woke sweatrunning down my face

I never felt so strange

To think that this could be our fate

To freeze in darkened pain

Then sleep brought back the dreams to me

Of wars to turn the tide

The world committing nuclear suicide

Inside this hazy world of dreams I've never known

I've seen the wrath come down and turn mankind to stone

And then I realized that this be Eschatus

A holocaust of flames to burn Midgard to dust

It has been called by many names throughout the years

Still they all mean the same, man burning in his fears

The Anti-Christ will come and rise up through the sea

The Dreams of Eschaton have shown this all to me

Before the Gods of Hell sentence you to die

Remember well my friend a warlord never cries

These are the words that I've heard inside my mind

When Ragnarok comes down we'll all run out of time

I hope that can see that this is not a game

We don't just sing to thee to win fortune and fame

The souls of all of us are priceless to the last

These dreams could be our fate of living life too fast

And so I say to thee watch the skies above

For when the darkness falls and rivers turn to blood

Then Arthur shall return to fight for peace and truth

To slay the beast of hell and save the righteous few

Before the Gods of Hell sentence you to die

Remember well my friend a warlord never cries

These are the words that I've heard inside my mind

When Ragnarok comes down we'll all run out of time
