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 humanity A new Solar Ice Age An Earth that no science could save
I woke sweat running 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
