The Old King Emerges from Jade
I see the light at the jade encrusted tunnel's finish
I taste the dawn of a new day awaiting us
My body, weak, but the spirit won't die and won't extinguish
I hold the hopes of those that I had left behind
The intertwining webs of fate wove us together
But if we don't crawl right out of here we'll never see the moon
I cannot feel for my sins plague me forever
I hope that I will have a chance to see the daylight soon
My limbs may have gone numb but I will not surrender
My sheer determination, fueled by this tune
The notes are mystical your voice is my defender
You'll feel my burning heat overcome the dark typhoon
The gods who spin my faith drove through and made us fall
'Cause if we don't escape from here our journey ends in vain
And if we make it home we'll have endured and seen it all
So go the extra mile and we'll end the dark and pain
The puppetmaster pulls my strings but I ignore his beck and call
I hold the holy shield of light and the sword of evil's bane
I want to see the sun again but darkness trumps it all
So stay by me stick by my side and end the demon's reign
We'll make it through together just stay strong and don't surrender
We'll make it through together just stay strong and don't surrender
We'll make it through together just stay strong and don't surrender
We'll make it through together just stay strong and don't surrender
I see the light at the jade encrusted tunnel's finish
I taste the dawn of a new day awaiting us
My body, weak, but the spirit won't die and won't extinguish
I hold the hopes of those that I had left behind
I see the light at the jade encrusted tunnel's finish
I taste the dawn of a new day awaiting us
My body, weak, but the spirit won't die and won't extinguish
I hold the hopes of those that I had left behind
