lyrics

Here's a story about a little kid
He didn't come from the same world we did
There were dragons, goblins, orcs, and elves
And everyone there relied on themselves
As a babe, he was cast out to the wild
Raised by elves who could see no life defiled
When he grew up, he received his first bow
And he became the best that you know

[King] And if the prophecy tells of the one raised by elves who will dethrone the King, then all elves must be destroyed.
The king came with his stolen crown
Gave the order to cut the elves down
The battle raged and casualties were high
The kingdom's army's victory was nigh
The kid rode to a far off sea of sand
To quest for a relic of a distant land
The legend told of a kingdom to divide
A weapon was the last hope to turn the tide
[King] And when the battle is won, and word spreads of my might, the world will bow at my feet, and my reign will be supreme
Ride strong, fight hard
The battle rages on
We will stand guard
Until our freedom's won

Searching through the ancient dust and bone
He had a feeling that he was not alone
The kid turned 'round and was knocked right off his feet
The King was too much for the kid to defeat
In desperation, the kid looked low and high
A glinting hourglass came across his eye
Without a thought he knew what must be done
A chronostasis of father and his son

[King] You will never defeat me. I live and breathe control. You should know, my son. What is that?

Ride strong, fight hard
The battle rages on
We will stand guard
Until our freedom's won

Give thanks, stand tall
The battle has been won
Our hero's fall
Brings us a brand new dawn

[King] You fool. You've locked yourself with me in eternal struggle, and what will you gain? Your regret will have no end. When I'm free of your prison, none will be safe; they'll all be erased from existence. But first, let's get acquainted. Have you met my wrath?
