- verse 1 - I can hear the thunder The light fills up the sky The world soon torn asunder It's time for us to die - chorus - Where the Skyfire Gleams There I stand, there I lay Let the blastwave take me away Where the Skyfire Gleams There I will see the light My last and most beautiful sight - verse 2 - The steel won't protect me No iron be my shield No escape, no cover there will be (From the) power my enemies wield - chorus - Where the Skyfire Gleams There I stand, there I lay Let the blastwave take me away Where the Skyfire Gleams There I will see the light My last and most beautiful sight Run for cover Heaven's Fury Run for cover Ancient Terror Run for cover Heaven's Fury Run for your life! Earth Asunder Hands reaching for the skies Lungs burn with boiling air Feet stomp all over the dead Hell opens around us all... us all... Spoken: "There is no sight alike in the world. A row of Skyfires, with barrels pointed upwards, raining havoc upon their enemies. Sky ablaze with ancient magic. At that moment you realize, "With this on our side, no way we can lose."" Where the Skyfire Gleamed There I lie and face the sun With my lifeless eyes All my thoughts burnt by the flame Where the Skyfire Gleamed Only ashes can be found Underneath the sky Sky ablaze with vengeance Where the Skyfire Gleamed Where the Skyfire burnt the world Where the Skyfire Gleamed Where the Skyfire burnt the world. Spoken: "There is no way I could've stopped it. How anyone could've stopped it. You can't run, you can't hide. It will destroy everything. But the last thing you see. The beauty of destruction. They say it almost makes it worth it."

about

Rahkoi Finland

A mad man with a box, containing a miniature electro-mechanic symphonic orchestra, a bunch of odd space sounds and some synthetic doohickeys of whirl and whistle.

Bombastic, epic, cinematic cheese combined with electronic mayhem and hijinks of dubious nature. What more can you ask for?
