Interesting Blind Guardian WoT related tweet...

I am hoping my copy of Blind Guardian's new album drops through the letter box tomorrow. And in the meantime, here is the song uploaded onto YouTube:

Lyrics:

 

 

Now there is no end

The wheel will turn, my friend

 

I'm in flames

Cause I have touched the light

It pulls me so

We shall be one

Forevermore

That's all I want

It's all I need

Everything is fixed

There's no chance

There's no choice

 

It's calling me

"Saidin"

So precious and sweet

My mind keeps fading away

 

It's scratching deeper

My sole reliever

How can I find you now?

 

Passing through the flames

I see

How terror will rise

It soon will be over

Of father of lies

Like foul winds at twilight

It's coming over me

Whata was and what will be?

What is?

I don't know

 

Driving me insane

Just feel the heat

Madness creeps in

I'll tear it down

 

There's no end

Wheel of time

It keeps on spinning

There's no beginning

Turn the wheel of time

There's no beginning

Just keep on spinning

 

Light - it binds me

Light - it blinds me

Light - it finds me

Light denies me now

 

I creep along

So desperate and lired

Let me ask you

Why?

I am what I am

Prophecies I am the chosen

"Taveren"

The flame will grow

Feel the heat

I'll keep on breathing

After all there's no tomorrow

 

Wheel of time

Save my soul, find a way

And if I fail, will it all be over?

Oh wheel of time

 

The vision

So fleeting and vague

Once again I will bring down the mountain

One last glimpse

It is costantly slipping away

 

The young man said

"I will never give up"

The inner war

I can hold againt it

My mind, my mind

My mind's in darkness

 

The young man said

"I will never give up"

The prophecy

Behold it's true

I conquer the flame

To release the insane

I'm crying

I cannot erase

I'm the dragorn reborn

And in madness

I soon shall prevail

Twice I'll be marked and

Twice I shall live

The heron sets my path

And name me true

Twice I'll be marked and

Twice I shall die

My memory's gone

But twice I pay the price

 

Wheel of time

Save my soul

Find a way

May it be as the pattern has chosen

Oh, wheel of time

Turn the wheel of time

It keeps on spinning

There's no beginning

There's no end, wheel of time

There's no beginning

Just keep on spinning

 

Shine on

Embrace and deny me

Turn on, wheel of time

Shine on

You've burnt me, now guide me

Wave on, wheel of time

[Imperium]

And my copy of the album has dropped in through the letterbox at work today! Huzzah!

[Karasayl]

Awesome, you'll have to let us know your thoughts of it. I debating about ordering it myself  :)

And as mentioned elsewhere, there is a second WoT related song on the album. It is called Ride Into Obsession. And looking at the credits, Hansi (lead singer) thanks GRRR Martin (is that the right number of R's?), and I think the song War of the Thrones relate to the aSoIaF books.

Huzzah!

Finally found it! Looked the wrong way through the threads! Ah well...

 

Blind Guardian gig was tonight! Epic and awesome! Review will be up this week!
