lyrics

Dying land under black ash
Lord Ruler subdues the Skaa
Eyeless Inquisitors of Steel
Their iron laws we must abide
Black snow from the ashmounts
White mists shroud our world at night
Secrets hidden in time

Fight, make them bleed
The steel ministry
We'll steal the atium
Through its power we'll hold the
Future in our hands
Survivors we will stand
Mist, our cloak our friend
This empire must end

Young soul with power born
Allomantic blood in her veins
Vin joins the fight, she's Mistborn
Under Kelsier's scarred hands, she trains
Steel, Iron, Pewter, Tin
Burn inside her
She feels the change, once weak
Victim no more

Thieves, outlaws, friends
A plan's formed for them
To steal the atium
To take the throne, and to
Win freedom never known
Create a new home
Defeat the Lord Ruler
Against all odds, win or die

Death's in the air
Hide in our lairs
We watch the Skaa die
His blade claims their lives

Death's in the air
Hide in our lairs
We watch the Skaa die
His blade claims their lives

Innocents die to prove his might
A punishment, reminder of our plight
Our leader, the survivor is dead
All our plans, our hearts sink but
What will become of us?

Kredik Shaw, iron fortress
His stronghold Vin infiltrates
Vengeful young mistborn
For Kelsier she burns with rage
Chamber vast, Lord Ruler's home
For a thousand years
She challanges this piece of God
Fights through her tears

He betrayed his creed
He Did not release
The power not his own
For mortal he is shown when Vin
Rips the metal free
At her mercy he bleeds
Lord Ruler's final words
You know not what you've unleashed

It's hard to pick a favourite track. This is the only album i have so far deemed as "perfect", where every track, even the intro, is just a masterpiece in its own right. From the hard hitting Perturbator's Theme to the emotional title track, its 68 minutes of perfection. 10/10. connivingkhajiit
