Lyrics
(Verse 1)
In the shadows of the Capitol, where the light began to fade,
A hero stood in silence, as the darkness he embraced.
The Temple walls were crumbling, the cries of pain and fear,
Akerian felt the trembling, his path no longer clear.
(Pre-Chorus)
With a heart divided, and a soul torn in two,
He knew his time had come, his destiny to choose.
A ship of odd origins, in the hangar cold and still,
Called to him with whispers, of a destiny to fulfill.
(Chorus)
And so he flew away, into the endless night,
A Phoenix in the stars, a Grey Knight's fading light.
He left behind the Order, the war, the blood, the flame,
To find a world where balance reigns, and peace he would know.
(Verse 2)
As the stars turned to streaks, in the void of hyperspace,
Akerian closed his eyes, seeking solace, finding grace.
He slept through time’s great river, past galaxies unknown,
His heart began to mend, as the seeds of hope were sown.
(Bridge)
The Way around him whispered, in tones both dark and light,
Akerian, the chosen, would bring the dawn’s first light.
Through dreams of distant futures, where hybrids walk the land,
He saw the Earth, his destined home, where peace extends its hand.
(Chorus)
And so he flew away, into the endless night,
A Phoenix in the stars, a Grey Knight’s fading light.
He left behind the Order, the war, the blood, the flame,
To find a world where balance reigns, and peace would know his name.
(Verse 3)
He awoke to find the Earth, a world in deep despair,
In the heartland of America, war was in the air.
Five factions stood divided, each fighting for the crown,
The Chimeras waged their endless war, tearing cities down.
(Verse 4)
The Insectoids marched with fury, the Lizard-Hybrids strong,
The Avian soared with vengeance, the Mammalians held on.
But humans who had left before, to find a distant star,
Had long since fled the chaos, leaving wounds that would not scar.
(Pre-Chorus 2)
With wisdom from the ages, and a heart that knew both sides,
He gathered all the leaders, where the plains were open wide.
With words that cut through anger, and a saber’s glowing gleam,
He forged a path of unity, turning war into a dream.
(Chorus)
And so he brought them peace, under the Midwest skies,
A Phoenix in the fields, a Grey Knight’s calm reprise.
He healed the land with balance, the factions laid down arms,
To find a world where harmony reigns, and no one comes to harm.
(Outro)
Now the Earth knows his name, in the cities and the plains,
Akerian the Wise, who ended war’s cruel chains.
With wings of fire and wisdom, and a saber burning bright,
He brought balance to a broken world, a beacon in the night.
(Final Chorus)
And so he flew to Earth, through the endless night,
A Phoenix in the stars, a Grey Knight’s shining light.
He left behind the Order, the war, the blood, the flame,
To find a world where balance reigns, and peace would know his name.
Akerian, the Phoenix Knight, the one who found his way,
Will guide the lost and weary, to a brand new day.
