Volcandra - Beyond The Will Of Mortals (Official Video)

Beyond The Will Of Mortals

Warships descend on a shining megalopolis
To fell the holy citadel shrouding a sacred rune
A fragment of ancient weaponry holds the power
To plummet worlds into unrelenting doom
Demigods of old
testing the weakened wills of men
Reckless ambitions collapsing time and time again
Barricades crumble like the failing principles of peace
Casualties mounting, blood spilled in vain will flood the streets
All hope lost
What force can we wield to cease t
his madness?
This losing battle struggles on into the dusk
A lowly warrior conjures valor stirring in this husk of what they used to be
Everything we’ve ever known consumed in fogs of war
The darkened hearts of mankind beat forever more into the void
Retreating to the rune stone chamber where the empress waits
Her dying wish in fleeting moments will decide our fates
There is no escape from the insane pursuits of control
Doomed we were to think we could contain endless power
Travel to the past, destroy this vessel of corruption

Lest we cannot escape endless warfare and destruction
Open the ancient tome
Incantations spoken
Traverse the portal
Shatter that beyond the will of mortals
Futures doomed in the present
All that dwell within it
The past will hold the key
Out of self
-
conceived prisons
Open the ancient tome
Incantations spoken
Traverse the portal
Shatter that beyond the will of mortals
