I've heard the silence of the angels

I've seen betrayed my faith in men

And their conditions of salvation

In which so blindly they defend

Touch the light that crawls from the page

Ascension of heroes - strengthen the saints

Ascension of heroes - that call from the stage

The tyrant, he lives and dies by the sword

He has painted his face and tainted the Lord

Into the arena, his faith is restored

The mortal storm of fear that wages their will

To take away your names will keep the phantoms

In their cages and cast the children into flames

Touch the light that crawls from the page

Ascension of heroes - strengthen the saints

Ascension of heroes - that call from the stage

I loved you with all my heart and my soul

The conflict within is leading me home

The ghost and the godsend are standing alone

The birth of a new world awaits in your hands

With only your hopes and your dreams may you stand

Ascension of heroes - are waiting command

Ascension of heroes - awaiting the stand
