Beyond the Map - Power Metal - Artificial Insanity

I do a lot of science-fiction, but a little bit of fantasy is always welcome too. Keep your adventuring spirit up, and come along... Beyond the Map! [Verse 1] At sunrise we were on the road, Five of us sworn to the code, The milestones ended one by one, And still we followed on. The towers rose beyond the plain, Half lost in cloud and summer rain. No tale had marked that ancient track— So naturally, we didn’t turn back. [Pre-Chorus] One road ahead, No road behind— The best adventures Are hard to find. [Chorus] Beyond the map! Where adventure calls! Beyond the map! Chasing glory for us all! Through ruined gates, Through mountain flame, We came for wonder, We stayed for fame! Beyond the map! Where the old world calls our name! [Verse 2] We crossed a bridge of dragon bone, Found golden halls without a throne. The thief found doors no key could turn, The mage found runes that still could burn. At dusk we climbed the highest wall, And watched the kingdoms beneath us all. A thousand roads, a thousand skies— And none of us were ready to go home. [Pre-Chorus] No crown to win, No fate to prove— Just one more horizon Calling us through. [Chorus] Beyond the map! Where adventure calls! Beyond the map! Chasing glory for us all! Through ruined gates, Through mountain flame, We came for wonder, We stayed for fame! Beyond the map! Where the old world calls our name! [Bridge] Raise the banner. Mark the stone. Every legend Starts unknown. If there’s a road No one has crossed— That’s where you’ll find us. [Final Chorus - key change] Beyond the map! Where adventure calls! Beyond the map! Chasing glory for us all! Through dragon fire, Through storm and rain, We’ll find the road And ride again! Beyond the map! Let tomorrow know our name!
