The stars blink out, the sky's gone dim
In the stillness, silence speaks
Bones of gods tremble
A shadow rises, none can see him
In his grasp, the old world weak

He rises, he rises, through the clouds he flies
He rises, he rises, as the old gods cry
He rises, he rises, with a name that's known
He rises, he rises, on a throne of stone

Atoms halt, as he takes command
The dark shudders
Far away, it stirs
A god, who feeds all the land
The earth, bows beneath his word

He rises, he rises, through the clouds he flies
He rises, he rises, as the old gods cry
He rises, he rises, with a name that's known
He rises, he rises, on a throne of stone

His power glows, on the horizon's edge
With his father's breath
Past the still of death
Each step casts a shadowed wedge
Do you hear

He rises, he rises, through the clouds he flies
He rises, he rises, as the old gods cry
He rises, he rises, with a name that's known
He rises, he rises, on a throne of stone

In the wind that speaks his name
In the shadowed sun, we know

He rises, he rises, through the clouds he flies
He rises, he rises, as the old gods cry
He rises, he rises, with a name that's known
He rises, he rises, on a throne of stone
