Gamma Ray
The Winged Horse
[Verse 1]
In a land, far beyond the sun
Rules the darkness, faceless magician
Black towers which raise into the sky
Castle of skulls, shadows passing by
[Pre-Chorus]
Blood is covering the mighty walls
Of those who lost their skin and bones
No one ever saw the light
Oh, slaves of the night, yeah
[Verse 2]
There's a young man, chained on a stake
Lifeless body, he has no strength to break
His shirt is bloody, his head is hanging down
He's meant to die, the ruler took his crown
[Pre-Chorus]
The wind howls through the emptiness
A different sound as in the past
Screaming echoes in the lanes
Oh, victims of the pain
[Chorus]
The clouds passing by, a hole breaks the sky
Light refract the dark and fills the place
White, winged horse, such a powerful force
Gallops through the sky to break the chains
[Verse 3]
The winged horse lands by the one
It snorts and stamps, the escape has just begun
The chains are broken, silence fills the place
He backs the horse with his last ounce of strength
[Pre-Chorus]
The white horse rears and spreads its wings
To reach the sky and search for the kings
The one will lead to win at last
Oh, rulers of the past
[Chorus]
The clouds passing by, a hole breaks the sky
Light refract the dark and fills the place
White, winged horse, such a powerful force
Gallops through the sky to free the land
[Refrain]
The white horse rears and spreads its wings
To reach for the sky and search for the kings
The one will lead to win at last
Oh, rulers of the past
[Solo: Henjo Richter / Kai Hansen]
[Verse 4]
The kings return, they're armed with mighty swords
To retake the land and banish evil thoughts
They fight against the shadows
Captured souls of the dark might
Dethrone the evil ruler to bring sun to the night
[Pre-Chorus]
The battle takes a heavy toll
But they achieve what they're fighting for
Now the land is free again
Oh, no more blood and pain
[Chorus]
The clouds passing by, a hole breaks the sky
Light refract the dark and fills the place
White, winged horse, such a powerful force
Gallops through the sky to free the land
[Outro]
But still, at night, when darkness rules again
Whispering shadows creeping through the lanes
Evil creatures of the expelled magician
Oh, it's a fight you'll never win
You'll never win
