Through ceaseless time 
Great nations fall 
Immortal shadows 
Sacrifice the sprawl
 
A man will come 
To start a fire 
Your shining city 
Will become your pyre
 
Rise from the shadows 
Make a fist of the pain 
Rise from your grief 
Before it grows into your bane
 
Climb from the prison 
That you've built in your soul 
When the night has arisen 
Then your legend will be whole
 
Your kings of commerce 
Your crowns of greed 
Will not protect you 
When the slaves are freed
 
Your body broken 
Your spirit numb 
Weak and waiting 
For the end to come
 
Rise from the shadows 
Make a fist of the pain 
Rise from your grief 
Before it grows into your bane
 
Climb from the prison 
That you've built in your soul 
When the night has arisen 
Then your legend will be whole
 
I Will start a fire 
Watch it rise 
Through your city
 
Rise from the agony 
That pierces your mind 
Rise from the stigmas 
Of enigmas you've designed
 
Rise from the chaos 
Of a world turned to ash 
The faces of anarchy 
Are waiting for the crash
 
Rise from the shadows 
Make a fist of the pain 
Rise from your grief 
Before it grows into your bane
 
Climb from the prison 
That you've built in your soul 
When the knight has arisen 
Then your legend will be whole
