Track Insight / Lyrics
Cold wind bites the salted skin.
Let the long journey begin.
Rusty keys in heavy locks.
Hard boots walking over rocks.
Carry the torch through the black.
Walk the road, don't look back.
Iron and ember, gold and steel.
Turn the heavy grinding wheel.
Copper wires hum in the wall.
Watch the ancient empire fall.
Silver coins in leather bags.
Tattered cloth and crimson flags.
Carry the torch through the black.
Walk the road, don't look back.
Iron and ember, gold and steel.
Turn the heavy grinding wheel.
Deep in caves where crystals glow.
Watch the heavy magma flow.
Blackened soot on every hand.
Walking through a ruined land.
Oil the lamp and keep the flame.
Forget the face, forget the name.
Cold metal clicks, the gear will spin.
Open the door and let us in.
Sharp steel cuts the midnight air.
Scent of sulfur everywhere.
Heavy shields and pointed spears.
Fighting through the oldest fears.
Carry the torch through the black.
Walk the road, don't look back.
Iron and ember, gold and steel.
Turn the heavy grinding wheel.
White salt spray on broken glass.
Wait for all the storms to pass.
One last spark to light the way.
Hold the line until the day.
Carry the torch through the black.
Walk the road, don't look back.
Iron and ember, gold and steel.
Turn the heavy grinding wheel.
The lamp is lit.
The wheel will turn.
