The Old Man's Requiem Songtext / Lyric

Empyrean Sanctum
The Old Man's Requiem Lyrics

The old man’s horrid cries they shake me from my dream
My nightmare brought to life by his agonizing scream
He lies awake in bed drenched in a cold sweat
With his final breath he warns of a great threat

A tattered old map clenched in his shaking fist
The map, "Your Destiny”, you must not resist

(Chorus)
Now I’m enlightened with the map in my hand
I’m in command, my quest is here
The path lies before me, now I can see my destiny
Now I will travel across this vast land,
map in my hand, I have no fear
Grandfather he spoke of a place to the north,
I must go forth, the old man’s requiem

The old man’s dying wish resounding in my head
It echoes through my mind, remembering what he said
My destiny awaits on top of the mountains
The secrets of life are hidden within

A mysterious place in the sky calls to me
Tread fast, “The Sanctum” it will set me free

(Chorus)
