[The Iron Savior has returned to Earth and it seems that the fable will turn.]

Travelling the stars out in the cold
Out on the quest for the old
You had to leave
So don't come to grief

You couldn't see what is right or wrong
Atlantis seemed to be gone
So you attacked
The ones to protect

Out of control
You've been pounding the world
Seems now the tables have turned

Eye of the world - of the world
Back to defend
Your ancient land
Eye of the world
Back from the past
Back to save us at last

Guarding or star, giving us hope
For man you will cope
Now you can see
Who is the enemy

From the abyss
It's the savior's return
Seems now the tables will turn

Eye of the world...
Solo Piet - Kai - Piet - Kai

Mighty machine
Set us free from the night
Be our guiding light
There is a star
Rising up in the sky
We hold your banner high

From the abyss...

Eye of the world...

Eye of the world
Save us
The tables will turn
Eye of the world
Save us
The shadow will burn
Eye of the world

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

American Town

Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
