Lyrics The Necromancer - Rush
As
grey
traces
of
dawn
tinge
the
eastern
sky
The
three
travelers,
men
of
Willowdale
Emerge
from
the
forest
shadow
Fording
the
river
Dawn,
they
turn
south
Journeying
into
the
dark
and
forbidding
lands
of
the
necromancer
Even
now
the
intensity
of
his
dread
power
can
be
felt
Weakening
the
body
and
saddening
the
heart
Ultimately
they
will
become
empty,
mindless
spectres
Stripped
of
will
and
soul
Only
their
thirst
for
freedom
Gives
them
hunger
for
vengeance
Silence
shrouds
the
forest
As
the
birds
announce
the
dawn
Three
travellers
ford
the
river
And
southward
journey
on
The
road
is
lined
with
peril
The
air
is
charged
with
fear
The
shadow
of
his
nearness
Weighs
like
iron
tears
Shreds
of
black
cloud
loom
in
overcast
skies
The
necromancer
keeps
watch
with
his
magic
prism
eyes
He
views
all
his
lands
and
is
already
aware
Of
the
three
helpless
invaders
trapped
in
his
lair
Brooding
in
the
tower
Watching
over
his
lands
Holding
ev'ry
creature
Helplessly
they
stand
Gaze
into
his
prisms
Knowing
they
are
near
Lead
them
to
the
dungeons
Spectres
numb
with
fear
They
bow
defeated
Enter
the
champion
Prince
By-Tor
appears
to
battle
for
freedom
From
chains
of
long
years
The
spell
has
been
broken
The
Dark
Lands
are
bright
The
wraith
of
the
necromancer
soars
away
in
the
night
Stealthily
attacking
By-Tor
slays
his
foe
The
men
are
free
to
run
now
From
labyrinths
below
The
wraith
of
necromancer
Shadows
through
the
sky
Another
land
to
darken
With
evil
prism
eye,
oh
