lyrics

A name whispered on the wind
A legend that can’t be lies
A king for the ages
A lost leader hiding
Our wake it leads the journey
Across this barren sea
A journey for the future
Of a fading mankind

An isolated land, an island of no return
Does our future lie here? … on the Island of the king

The structure rises above
A vast dark sea of clouds
A silent foreboding
But none will ever turn around

A single chance to survive
From a legend we have heard
Our throne awaits a king
And time it is our enemy

A shadow rises
As we approach the throne
And a mighty king he stares
As we kneel with blood and bone
Everything we have is yours
Every man willingly
On this eve of extinction
We come to this island across the sea
