Within The Gates Lyrics - Eidolon

Enter a world - forgotten time 

Born through a miracle - without reason or rhyme 

A fulmination - of hope and praise 

The chosen one put forth - to vanquish buried flames 

For those before you - far beyond the gates 

Beneath the tempered soil, 

What lies within forsaken graves of hate 

1,000 wars have passed - for years they've been retained 

The quest for inner sanctum - now has been attained 

The gates of hatred - forever to contain 

The throngs of perilous - buried to remain 

Among the vanquished - there lies a key 

For which you must retrieve - but once within - your soul belongs to fire!! 

Illusive concepts - attempts un-obtained 

Those who before you - became the detained 

Within the gates - you seek fading light 

Buried in darkness - your sense filled with fright 

Within the gates - you will tempt fate - you must beware! 

You are the chosen one - dark ruler's only son 

The power you posses - is now the final chance 

Within the gates - you will tempt fate - you must beware! 

Theme 

Solo 

Theme 

Walk towards the fading light (alone) 

Wide-eyed seek the dead of night (the cold) 

Why am I the chosen one? To die 

Heart is pounding as I seek the fading light... 

Left alone within the gates (to die) 

Fore-warned I am tempting fate (beware) 

Walk onto the tainted soul - arrived 

Looking at the tarnished graves of hate... 

With the power I posses - unveil 

Crucify to those possessed - to hell 

First I must obtain the key - to seek 

11th casket - once inside - behold the key... 

Now within the open grave - of hate 

Father lay with open eyes - slain 

As I scream the soil shakes - awakened 

Red-eyes from my father's grave - piercing me, piercing me... 

Within the gates - do you search for the key? 

Does it hold answers - to which you now seek? 

Now you have trampled on our sacred ground 

Their visions of glory are not to be found!! 

Years we've been buried in forsaken flames 

In truth it is THEY who now bear guilt and shame 

THEY are the evil who sent you to burn 

The key holds no meaning - for this you will learn!! 

All of before you are one in the same 

Sent on a quest by the ones who bear shame 

Within the gates now there is no escape 

Beneath the soil - in flames we now pay 

But you have the power - to help us escape 

Bearing the marks - it is their turn to pay!! 

Aeons have past - we await your arrive 

Setting us free will ensure their demise!! 

The power you possess - is in your hand 

To place upon the soil - release the spell to open the gates!! 

Theme 

To be free again - and stake our claim at hand 

The key now in your hand - now points their way and sends them to burn! 

Theme 

Now claiming victory - they melt within the flames 

Put forth the chosen one - savior of all - within the gates! 

Within the gates!! 

We will return...
