Follow the path and see its twists and turns
But don't you dare run down it or you'll be burned!
For through the past it leads,
But the present, us it needs.
But to save a kingdom, do we have the might?
Crusading through the night!

Cry out for the fallen heroes!
Unless you dared to forget them too!
Where am I amongst the black and white?
Has time erased me from your sight?

Reach for the distant sunrise again!
Forgotten dreams but who's to blame?
There was never an honest word
To describe the pain of my world!

Never look back, or you'll be claimed
By this wicked memory chain!
Please just give me the key!
Break my bonds and set me free,
But please promise me,
You won't forge a chain of memories!

Clashing steel ain't meant to feel
Just as men weren't meant to squeal!
For the children, ignorance is bliss
But it will soon be missed.
Your soul can be wild, your soul can fly!
But don't let this chain make you blind!

Why'd you have to break my wings?
I want to fly, my soul sings!
Crashing waves tear apart
The fragile strings of your heart!

Wait for the day, when we come charging down your way!
But will you recognize a forgotten face?
I stand before the Lord,
He asks "What's taking you so long?"

Never look back, or you'll be claimed
By this wicked memory chain!
Please just give me the key!
Break my bonds and set me free,
But please promise me,
You won't forge a chain of memories!

My hands are bloody, bloody
My hands are bloody, bloody
From tugging at this chain

My hands are bloody, bloody
My hands are bloody, bloody
I fear I've gone insane!

Never look back, or you'll be claimed
By this wicked memory chain!
Please just give me the key!
Break my bonds and set me free,
But please promise me,
You won't forge a chain of memories!
