Age of Man

In the ancient fragments of
The legend you've been told
A man with a hair of silver
Met a girl with a hair of gold
Remember how they spun their love
To a fabric strong as steel
And with a wave of hands
That cloth began to breathe

In the oldest hymns that
Our elders still recite
That cloth took human form
Our lineage sprung to life
As the gods came running
To this carnival of souls
A boy came forth
Protected by his horde

Hey - the fight has begun
Hey - we'll follow our son

The rising of kings, the binding of rings
That make men stay together
Together as one, to fight the storm
The shadows of gods that fall over men
Let's bring out the light and then
We'll celebrate rising of the kings

In the age of sayings
There is wisdom to be found
So gather by the fire here
And let the elders have their time
Let them teach the young ones
To take heed in gods that crave
For our submission to
The plans that they call faith

Let them see the light in
Our king that we still praise
And show them how to pay
Respect in every way
Let the solemn grandeur
Of our founder be the guide
Or let them rot in hell
As traitors to our tribe

The rising of kings, the crafting of rings
That make men stay together
Together as one, to fight the storm
The shadows of gods that fall over men
Let's bring out the light and then
We'll celebrate rising of the kings

Behold in the far, a rising star
It points us the way we just have to go now
No - running away
No - getting away
No - getting away

The rising of kings, the binding of rings
Together as one, to fight the storm
The shadows of gods that fall over men
We celebrate rising of the kings

The rising of kings, the forging of rings
That make men stay together
Together as one, to fight the storm
The shadows of gods that fall over men
Let's bring out the light and then
We'll celebrate rising of the kings,
And so, we're letting the age of man begin
