Guardians of the Vault 歌词

Deep beneath the scorched earth lies the silence A labyrinth carved when dragons ruled the sky After the First Cataclysm burned the ages Only ashes remained, and a desperate cry Shelves of stone hold every whispered secret Every scroll, every name the world forgot They carried the flame when humanity faltered Locked it away before the final rot Millennia pass, yet the candles still burn Watching over words the dead never learned The Great Vault of History, buried below Keeper of echoes the free winds never know We lost it all once in fire and in pain Almost lost it twice, never again Never again Antony Leppra walks the endless hallways Eyes like winters that never see the dawn Older than the granite, older than the sorrow He was here before the first stone was drawn They whisper he's immortal, cursed and unbroken Carries diseases no mortal could survive Made a bargain once, and the bargain devoured him Still he guards the truth, still he's alive Few words escape those tired, haunted lips But when they do, the darkness grips The Great Vault of History, buried below Keeper of echoes the free winds never know We lost it all once in fire and in pain Almost lost it twice, never again Never again On quiet nights he speaks to a shadow-vampire Paranoid friend with a gun made of silver and fear Two broken souls trading ghosts in the darkness Two lonely watchers, keeping the end far from here He stares through the ages, through victories and graves And softly he murmurs the vow that he saves We lost everything once Almost lost everything twice And I swear on these bones and these crumbling tomes There will never be a third time The Great Vault of History, standing so tall Last bastion of memory, answering the call We lost it all once in fire and in pain Almost lost it twice, but never again Never again Never, again Antony Leppra still walks those halls of stone Carrying sadness no history book has shown Guarding tomorrow, from yesterday's fall The Great Vault of History Will never fall
