Lyrics of 'Impending Doom' by Fade To Oblivion

Exposition:
In this final battle
To determine the age
A man shall rise
To take his place
From humblest beginnings
From the poorest of lives
The end will be drawn
From inside his mind
For the hubris of man
Shall bring about her end
And now bare witness to this beginning of the end

Swing the blades
And bring them down on heads of stone
We the legion, we stand alone
Behold this dauntless horde they come as one
Feel the world it shakes
They march just to rip apart our veins

Around the battles and the screams of death
I stand surrounded
Bloody smile crosses my face
This is how I'll have it

After countless slain now they still come
With one false move you're lying in your blood
They conquer us
With authority
From an ancient land,
Lain far across the sea

Push on to take the great unknown
The fire's burning all around us
When, encircling
Impending doom
But I, I must survive
If I, I alone

I awoke, on a bed of picked clean bones
Scream in anguish, we die alone
Without a sound I raise my aching head
Above the stars' embrace
How long have I slept among the grave

Above the field the vultures skulk and prey
Their feast abounding
With sinew torn from their flesh
Men bloat the wretched

Not a soul survived the beasts are gone
All the trails of the damned ones leave them driving
On my very home
Smoke issues forth, from the mountain-side
I know I'll never
I'll never
Return

I'll find a way
This war is far from over
I'll return
Mark my words
This is not the last time
You'll hear my name
In your dreams
