Lyrics:

(Actual reality, actual fantasy)

Ready for the enemy, hungry for the battle
Fighting hard for victory in the army of the king
Armed with shield and sword, we mounted our horses
Leaving on a sacred quest, on our way to fight the holy war
They attacked from different sides, hard pressed with numbers
We could not even run nor hide, we had to stand and fight
Then I felt a blade of steel penetrate my armour
I did not dream, the pain was real
As I went down I knew my time had come
And then he rode into the night
Towards that eerie distant light that seemed to charm him
Until he came to a road that disappeared
(Beyond the last horizon)
He knew there'd be no way back once he had vanished in the blackness of infinity
And so he gathered all his strength not to descend
(Into the valley of death...)
(Into the valley of death...)
I opened up my weary eyes, the haze slowly lifted
The mighty roar of battlecries stopped ringing in my ears
I gazed upon a friendly face; he carried me to safety
I told him of this frightening place and of my journey back from the other side
And then he rode into the night
Towards that eerie distant light that seemed to charm him
(A force so seductive and yet so destructive)
Until he came to a road that disappeared
(Beyond the last horizon)
(He followed the road to the edge of eternity)
He knew there'd be no way back
Once he had vanished in the blackness of infinity
(I fought for my life for I am to survive the ordeal)
And so he gathered all his strength not to descend
(Into the valley of death...)
(Into the valley of death...)

And then he rode into the night
Towards that eerie distant light that seemed to charm him
(A force so seductive and yet so destructive and cruel)
Until he came to a road that disappeared
(Beyond the last horizon)
(I followed that road to the edge of eternity)
He knew there'd be no way back
Once he had vanished in the blackness of infinity
(I fought for my life for I had to survive the ordeal)
And so he gathered all his strength not to descend
(Into the valley of death...)
(Into the valley of death...)
(Into the valley of death...)
(Into the valley of death...)
