8. The Wind That Shapes the Land (8:36)
Somehow how I find myself standing on the edge of
Something that I desperately need
From this moment I will not be the same (not the same)
No more crying for the things I can't change
Here I will put this tale to rest
Finish what I started long ago
And though it may not be the ending I wish
Only victory can bring me home
Come, I won't wait for long
I was never your
Slave for all eternity
And now here we stand face to face
Feel the ground, crashing all around
Fight to fan the flame, ignite the battle rage
Tear the sky, watch the boulders fly
As the mountain scape, crumbles in her wake
So, you've come to prove yourself, despite the lies you tell, you know you won't prevail
And I, most powerful of all, have come to see you fall, you'll find no mercy here
Search within, uncover the will to win, turn against the tide that washes o'er
Find the strength to fall and rise again, open up the gates, unleash the force
I am the wind that shapes the land, old as time and twice as strong
Oceans arise at my command, I alone can carry on
To break her chains
Forward I push on into the storm surrounding me
I await her strike
Could it be she's reached the pinnacle now
Silence as I stand within the eye
In this hurricane of her design
And watch as I drain the light from inside
Now at last I see what must be done and so I fly
Firm within my grasp I hold the spark and shatter it
See her eyes go dark
Could it be I've finally won the war now
I see the clouds are gone
The storm that raged is quiet once again
I feel the stars above
Shining on the fragments that remain
Search within, uncover the will to win, turn against the tide that washes o'er
Find the strength to fall and rise again, open up the gates, unleash the force
No, what is this I see
Broken before me
Once again I pay the price
I've nothing without sacrifice
Something that I desperately need
From this moment I will not be the same (not the same)
No more crying for the things I can't change
Here I will put this tale to rest
Finish what I started long ago
And though it may not be the ending I wish
Only victory can bring me home
Come, I won't wait for long
I was never your
Slave for all eternity
And now here we stand face to face
Feel the ground, crashing all around
Fight to fan the flame, ignite the battle rage
Tear the sky, watch the boulders fly
As the mountain scape, crumbles in her wake
So, you've come to prove yourself, despite the lies you tell, you know you won't prevail
And I, most powerful of all, have come to see you fall, you'll find no mercy here
Search within, uncover the will to win, turn against the tide that washes o'er
Find the strength to fall and rise again, open up the gates, unleash the force
I am the wind that shapes the land, old as time and twice as strong
Oceans arise at my command, I alone can carry on
To break her chains
Forward I push on into the storm surrounding me
I await her strike
Could it be she's reached the pinnacle now
Silence as I stand within the eye
In this hurricane of her design
And watch as I drain the light from inside
Now at last I see what must be done and so I fly
Firm within my grasp I hold the spark and shatter it
See her eyes go dark
Could it be I've finally won the war now

The storm that raged is quiet once again
I feel the stars above
Shining on the fragments that remain
Search within, uncover the will to win, turn against the tide that washes o'er
Find the strength to fall and rise again, open up the gates, unleash the force
No, what is this I see
Broken before me
Once again I pay the price
I've nothing without sacrifice
