"The Reckoning Dawn" lyrics

Then sharply did destiny arrive
When gilded edge came up to edge
To wither all of earth's creations
And sweep its ways now o'er her kin

There came a dire legion here
And followed them did dread arise
Passing phantoms with sharp weapons
Shilling torment, on the hordes of men
With a great din, they did wage war
And yet the foolish did not dread!

Their deadly spears, and weapons drawn
Through open eyes, dire spirits fled
Their deadly spears, and weapons drawn
Through open eyes, dire spirits fled

The bold in battle thronged with anger
As they raised their banners up high
A sign of might unto the crowds
As warriors charged into the fray

And still the rain came from above
A whirlwind as the arrows fly
A travelling dart few shall escape
Pressed onwards o'er the water's way
A whirlwind as the arrows fly

They with fire inside shall seethe
To snuff those pale of flame
Then crashing go, and shall they fall
As ravens swart descend
