Ancient Warrior Lyrics - The Eternal Idol - Black Sabbath

There's no end, there's no beginning 

To the old man's story 

Does he still remember me 

From lives gone by 

Oh I see his spirit rising 

Upon the back of time 

I've got nowhere to hide 

Will he keep a place for me 

He is the king of all kings 

The keeper of light 

He holds eternity's wings 

In his eyes an ocean's burning 

Swollen seas of tears 

Troubled mind the beating 

War drums in his ears 

No one ever hears his warning 

Am I the one he calls 

When they tell me they're afraid 

Some say I'll be put away 

He is the king of all kings 

The keeper of light 

He holds eternity's wings 

My blood will spill my blood 

My blood will spill my blood 

In the wisdom of the prophet's 

Never ending tale 

Open up the eyes 

Within your mind, he says 

Crowned in his ancient glory 

There's a king within us all 

Some will say it's all in vain 

That he doesn't have a name 

He is the king of all kings 

The keeper of light 

He holds eternity's wings
