Lyrics:

For eons waiting in slumber lies the astral beast
Legend warns when it wakens death will be unleashed
From past battlefields the angel sang to me
You must find the chosen three to claim your destiny

With weapons ready and hearts ablaze
On steel wings we rise
This is our promise
To the astral beast:
You’ll meet your demise

In the jungles of the east the young rogue master lurks
Trained by his late mentor in the shadow arts since birth
Unmatched in speed and wit, no living foes are left
Now for his final trial he’ll put his skills to the test

With weapons ready and hearts ablaze
On steel wings we rise
This is our promise
To the astral beast:
You’ll meet your demise

The barbarian roams the western plains with nothing left
The mad king’s orders led his family to their death
He swears vengeance on the king in this world and the next
Into battle he will ride until the day his heart can rest

Far in the frigid north the wizard waits alone
Scarred by the astral beast so many moons ago
Their fates remain entwined, he knows he cannot rest
To defeat the astral beast will be his final quest

With weapons ready and hearts ablaze
On steel wings we rise
This is our promise
To the astral beast:
You’ll meet your demise

PREPARE
BEWARE
PREPARE
FOR THE
AFLOCKALYPSE
