Carved in Stone Lyrics
There is silence in the dark
There's a fire, ready to start
Torn pages, inked by fury
The inception of the damned
They are calling out my name
Come, please join us and carry the flame
Our precious time is standing still
When the future meets the past
No freedom, no glory
There's no future, no past
This will be our…
One last wish, one last dream
Will you follow the masses, or follow your own?
One last chance, one last scream
Before your future will be carved in stone
I remember what they said
I still hear them inside my head
The legions of damnation
They keep calling out my name
The wind blows, forever
But the time is standing still
This will be our…
One last wish, one last dream
Will you follow the masses, or follow your own?
One last chance, one last scream
Before your future will be carved in stone
Knock, a knock on my door
Please revoke what you're asking for
Solo: Oscar
One last wish, one last dream
Will you follow the masses, or follow your own?
One last chance, one last scream
Before your future will be carved in stone
There's a fire, ready to start
Torn pages, inked by fury
The inception of the damned
Come, please join us and carry the flame
Our precious time is standing still
When the future meets the past
There's no future, no past
This will be our…
Will you follow the masses, or follow your own?
One last chance, one last scream
Before your future will be carved in stone
I still hear them inside my head
The legions of damnation
They keep calling out my name
But the time is standing still
This will be our…
Will you follow the masses, or follow your own?
One last chance, one last scream
Before your future will be carved in stone
Please revoke what you're asking for
Will you follow the masses, or follow your own?
One last chance, one last scream
Before your future will be carved in stone

One has to look no further than at the two lines - "Will you follow the masses or follow your own?" and "Before your future will be carved in stone". It's a message like "Be yourself, it's your life, go after your dreams".
Not sure about what these "legions" are. It may be, that the lyrical subject is somebody who is going to die soon and therefore those who are already dead are calling for him, so he wants to warn the next generation not to waste their lives ("Future meets the past"). Again - not sure about this part, though.
