On a path carved by heroes and dead men A figure cloaked in darkness arose A stunning likeness to a tragedy foretold A journey that would take him Through the heart of the sun There's a chink in your armor Your weakness is showing There's a price upon your head That's worth the risk The halo upon your brow Is rusty and broken It's the burden in your eyes That tells the truth Heaven can wait cause I got some business down below Drop me off at the gate cause I'll take the low road The end looms overhead The gallows are waiting The deal signed in blood Tied the noose Heaven can wait cause I got some business down below Drop me off at the gate cause I'll take the low road Through a forest of burning trees Follow the path to Hades To where the darkness swallows the sun There alone you will find the one Souls beg for mercy at his feet A lesser man would retreat Bound by flesh and bone A mortal hand wields the sword That takes the throne
