Still the legend goes on and on

I cast a spell and I've seen
Pieces of the future unveiled

Green are the valleys Where I belong
I've seen the mountain still shining
People are dreaming, singing a song
The Ghost of War has disappeared

There were eagles flying in the sky
Over fields of gold
The kingdom of the magic
Reaching for the land, for the dream
Stories still untold
Still the legend goes on and on
I've seen

This night will soon be gone, here comes the dawn
My contract will be up, I'll be free

No more revenge or darkness to heal
The orchards will all be in blossom
Love of my life is healthy and real
The Ghost of War has disappeared

There were eagles flying in the sky
Over fields of gold
The kingdom of the magic
Reaching for the land, for the dream
Stories still untold
Still the legend goes on and on
I've seen

There were eagles flying in the sky
Over fields of gold
The kingdom of the magic
Reaching for the land, for the dream
Stories still untold
Still, the legend goes on and on
I've seen
Finally I have seen

    Song Meaning

    Narratively, the album 'The Eighth Mountain" this track is from, is the first entry in the “Nephlins Empire Saga” (developed by band members Staropoli & De Micheli), which relates to “lost, corrupted souls” and choosing the right path in life. The posthumous narration by the late Christopher Lee at the end of the album explain the concept of all the tracks on the album including 'The Legend Goes On': "In ages past, the Nephilim Empire ruled the earth. But they fell from grace. Once their slaves, humanity rose up, and defeated their gods. The Nephilim were purged from the earth and banished to the darkness. For centuries they watched and waited. The Nephilim Empire would one day rise again. And when they rose from the ashes, they formed an alliance with a highly evolved race, knows as The Constructs. Together, they wiped out every last remnant of homo sapiens DNA. Despite the genocide, the dream of humanity would rise again. Time flows like a river, but there are many streams. The end of flesh is come before me, for the Empire is filled with violence and hatred. Behold, I will destroy the empire and those within. I am become death. The destroyer of worlds!
