lyrics

Who is this child, that the fates have foretold?
Sent from the heavens in the stories of old?
You think you'll replace me?
Young boy, you are bold!
You'll realize my power, and, you fool, you will fold!
And so it starts...

It turns the tides, and sets the stage for the stars
reflects the glory of the morning, pulls curtains on our
yesterdays are over and gone, but the moon makes way for the dawns.

I know there's gotta be something
more than just the little bit I've been handed.
You better know that you want what you wish for (I want what I wish for)
in searching for your fate.

I'll be reaching for something better than this meaningless life I've been living,
and I'll never look back.
Brace yourself and hold fast, because more than your life is at stake!

I'll be the architect.
I'll build the world as it was meant to be:
rewarding those that nature designed to rule over the weak.
Divide and conquer
the gods suffer our unwielding wrath.
We'll take over this world.


The stars beckon me to join them in the night sky.
They draw me in like the moon pulls on the tides.
Though everything looks so dark,
I'll embrace their light.

Your race is weak, and your penance won't do.
The ground shakes and you bow at the sight of the
moon!
You were given the grace of this world,
but I'll take it as my own.

I know there's gotta be something
more than just the little bit I've been handed.
You better know that you want what you wish for (I want what I wish for)
in searching for your fate.

I'll be reaching for something better than this meaningless life I've been living,
and I'll never look back.
(I'll be) reaching for something...
