In the country of the blind, the one-eyed man is king But soon you will find that shit don’t mean a thing Just that you paid a price, fortune left its mark And if it marks you twice you’ll be wandering in the dark So you hit the lights, turn up the night You burn your life away And the friends you made, the beasts you've slain All fade to gray The battle’s gone, the war’s moved on But you fight another day The glories won all said and done Are kingdoms yesterday Never too old to die young or too far ahead to lose In this legendary unsung adventure that you choose No quest lasts forever, no one’s keeping score Keep riding toward the never, till you quest forevermore So you break the law with tooth and claw And you try to find a way To justify or just get high ‘Cause there’s nothing left to say Did you take a stand? Did you make demands? Did you find another way? Did you make a change, or just rearrange Kingdoms yesterday

Sail into the endless night from a world of war Atomic eyes are burning bright in a black corridor The planet that we leave behind died so long ago A graveyard world in ruins alight in radiation glow Planetary blackout, fire in the sky Time to find a way out, your world’s doomed to die Starlit cold and sun-fire blaze and shining airless black Legends told of numbered days, never coming back Targeted for planetfall: an orb so clean and blue A peaceful world where sirens call and war begins anew Planetary blackout, conquerors of space Can’t someone wipeout this goddamn human race
