The Elder's Tales (of an Ancient Empire)

[creepy intro] [1st verse] Long ago, we once were oppressed by a kingdom from far, far away. We were helpless against them. [pre-chorus] For the Ancient Empire was... [chorus] A fortress of terror and a fortress of fear, One that lasted for years and years! A fortress of horror, A fortress of warriors! They ruled over all the horizons! [2nd verse] An iron fist, an apocalypse. Long have we fought hard To get rid of them, But we were to weak... [pre-chorus] For the Ancient Empire was... [chorus] A fortress of terror and a fortress of fear, One that lasted for years and years! A fortress of horror, A fortress of warriors! They ruled over all the horizons! [3rd verse] But one day, as the prophecy foretold, there would be a hero to save us! [pre-chorus] For the Ancient Empire was... [chorus] A fortress of terror and a fortress of fear, One that lasted for years and years! A fortress of horror, A fortress of warriors! They ruled over all the horizons! [4th verse] But we are free! They no longer grasp us in chains, They no longer give us pain! We are free, we are free, we are free! [outro]
