Concept Art - Immortality lyrics

There was a time bathed in the shadows of lost memory
When men and women like you could ascend
These few could reach out into the quickening mists of immortality
Mind you, transcendence is never easy
Those of us who seek the immortal throne
Live long enough to see ourselves become truly monstrous
It reeks of tragedy and sacrifice

You are strong for a mortal
Yet the beating of this war drum
Should burst your human heart
Come little spirit, invigorate your body

Battle by battle
War by war
Mortal sacrifice

The journey is long and arduous
You are strong for a mortal
Yet the beating of this war drum
Should burst your human heart

Invigorate your body
(Your body) [?x]

Transcendence
