Heir Apparent - Hands Of Destiny lyrics

Like oils upon a canvas cast in silver, black, and grey

The angry skies of autumn hold the distant sun at bay

Mighty airborne armies waging battles in the sky

The clouds are locked in conflict, sending thunderbolts to fly

Yet in our abundant wisdom

Man can't tame the sky, the mountains, or the sea

Held beyond our understanding, helpless to deny

The Hands of Destiny

A monolithic menace reaches up to touch the sky

Below, a tiny township, waiting, helpless to defy

In a violent clamor sends a molten sea of flame

Bringing forth destruction, leaving nothing to remain

Yet in our abundant wisdom

Man can't tame the sky, the mountains, or the sea

Held beyond our understanding, helpless to deny

The Hands of Destiny

With the rage of Neptune, savage seas divide the land

Claiming countless victims of the power at His command

Dark and dismal waters seem to laugh with fiendish pride

Leaving those who dared to venture washed up with the tide

Yet in our abundant wisdom

Man can't tame the sky, the mountains, or the sea

Held beyond our understanding, helpless to deny

The Hands of Destiny
