"Ensiferum" (2000)





Hero In A Dream





A witch read from the palm of his hand

that his life would turn into darkness

and alone he would face all demons

from his past that he tries to forget

An elder king warned of the dangers

that lie in the valleys of north and

his only chance was to find his shadow

so he had to set forth



He is the man who travels in the land

of dragons and magic spells

He rides in the winds of fire and snow

and he rules the forest of elves



Slash of the golden sword

a flash in the burning night

Curse of the evil lord

He is fighting for his life for the last time



Oh such beauty in time, but it's just external

He cannot see the truth with his eyes, so he is bound by a lie



The snow starts falling in paradise, as he gazes at the stars

He will be born again in the sky, when the night turns into a dawn



On the way to the ancient castle of time

he will soon be damned by rage

so that his pride could betray him

when it's time to set him free

The fears in his mind had to be pushed aside

as he walked through the gates

He will never die

'cause he is truly a Hero in a Dream
