Carved in Stone Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Unelith 

Cover art for Carved in Stone lyrics by HammerFall

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.
