Текст песни Wings of the Gryphon - Skeptik

Oh, the roads that we travel upon
Are the journey that paves our path
It uncovers truth in the hearts of all
As we wander into the dark
In the clutches of the unknown
Where the odds are a gamble, grim
And the changing winds antagonize
Our courage we embark
Swift, battle ready
Whether axe or sword our hands are steady
By the lanterns light we'll find a way
To bring conquest over an adversary
In the heart of the wolf no mercy lies
Beneath the moonlight wolven hearts abide
No matter how many moons we travel through
We know our victory will be absolute
Lessons of our failures
Are worn as battle scars
The wisdom of our fallen
Is written in the stars
Fields of every element
Are obstacles in turn
Over water, earth and fire
Does our journey venture on

Never stray
Our will will find a way
We'll meet our enemies
Eye to eye
Into the day
And though our paths may change
On the wings of the gryphon we'll fly

Oh, in the wake of the storm we ride
Over lands wherein no life dwells
To the edge of the world
And beyond any point any map could trace or track
For the purpose in our blood
For the ones that we left behind
For the fate that awaits at the end of the road
The horizon fades to black
Oh, no surrender
Never heel, never genuflect or bend
Another field painted red by letting blood
Another moment of glory that will be sung
And now I can feel the winds again
And now again I feel a change grow deep within
As the hunger inside for battle fades
Into a hunger for carnage and vanity
Lessons of our failures
Are worn as battle scars
The wisdom of our fallen
Is written in the stars
Fields of every element
Are obstacles in turn
Over water, earth and fire
Does our journey venture on

Never stray
Our will will find a way
We'll meet our enemies
Eye to eye
Into the day
And though our paths may change
On the wings of the gryphon we'll fly

The glory of our ventures
Has fallen to its parts
The demons we have slain
Now reside within our hearts
Blinded by the thrill of the submission of our foes
We become the very nemesis we sought once to oppose

Never stray
Our will will find a way
We'll meet our enemies
Eye to eye
Into the day
And though our paths may change
On the wings of the gryphon we'll fly
