about

9 minute saga about the fall of nature and spread of mankind

lyrics

I awoke that day
the snow fresh upon my face
the stories told of a creature fair
our mountain side was her noble lair

we ventured on into the wood
the blizzard heavy against our foot
until at last the beast was found
her piercing gaze, and her silent sound

there we stood alone
my iron ball it pierced her bones
and there she lay
forever cursed that day


Then I woke again inside the throne
deciding to journey on alone
the creatures hunted one by one
their anger fueled by their dying sun


there they chased me to the peak
relentless fury buried deep
spread my arms wished to die
fell back against the sky


when i came too,my body seared from the fall
i had an urge, the faintest call
i wandered round the base, the only place i ever known
searching for my solitude, looking for my home

"then i looked around
my home could not be found
replaced by the towers of humanity
the plague grows from the mountains feet
the fear inside of me grew deep
and so i ran
and so i ran"

there i spread my arms
let the wings unfold
there i flew
there i became..
