DARK FOREST LYRICS

1. Hourglass


An altered reality
I don't remember
What I came from
And what has been

Forever drifting
Tearing through existence
Trying to restore unity
Each universe found and dashed in my persistence

The portal opens, rematerialise

Lord of the hourglass, the hourglass

Observing history
Chaotic collisions
Looking over possibilities
Restoring order
A loss of vision

Manipulation
Of the continuum
This is my curse
This is my godly inquisition

I navigate through, the righteous destiny I choose

Lord of the hourglass, the hourglass

This is the pathway
This reality could be
The solution
Restoration of our unity

This journey's over
Can I let my burden lie
Does our race have salvation
Or is this the wrong time to try

I navigate through, the righteous destiny I choose

Lord of the hourglass, the hourglass


2. Lightyears On


Fighting a foe that we can't comprehend
Thousands of fleets have now fallen
Our tactics are worn out, but help is at hand
Last chance to defend Earth before them

Slay those insurgents
Blast them to the nearest sun
Now that we're one hundred thousand strong

Vessel charged, the task before me, it's time to blur the stars

Lightyears on

Adrenaline surges as we open fire
A blistering photon array
Slim chance of survival, yet if we return
No one shall hear of this day

We're riders to the stars
The human race in aliens palm
We'll hunt them down and tear their world apart

Vessel charged, the task before me, it's time to blur the stars

Lightyears on


3. The Green Knight


Far across this kingdom
I have rode with faith in my heart
To prove my worth and honour
I shall be true on my part

The fear I carry burdens me
As my fate draws close every day
I ride forth into the chapel
To close the deal that was made

Oh knight I dare to challenge thee
I'll seeketh then bestow on me
The grievous blow I gave to thee

Magic is wrought on a winters night
Emerald gleaming in the firelight
Keep thy strength and thy faith alive
Sir Gawain and the Green Knight

As warmth and comfort welcome me
Still all is not as it seems
To test my soul and body
A bargain thrice is agreed

And though temptation takes hold
I shall stay true to my court
The code by which I live my life
And this shield will be my support

Oh knight I dare to challenge thee
I'll seeketh then bestow on me
The grievous blow I gave to thee

Magic is wrought on a winters night
Emerald gleaming in the firelight
Keep thy strength and thy faith alive
Sir Gawain and the Green Knight


4. Seize The Day


As the wind sweeps wild and free wherever it may blow
I stand on high with all beneath me that I used to know
The road will take me on a journey of uncertainty

I'm free, I'm my own self
Stood by what my heart felt
My life is in my own hands
Don't wait for tomorrow, seize the day!

Taking hold, I'm in control of my own destiny
And I will boldly meet whatever fate may throw at me
For like the wind, I'm wild and free wherever I may go
I journey on without a case, for freedom I now know

I'm free, I'm my own self
Stood by what my heart felt
My life is in my own hands
Don't wait for tomorrow, seize the day

I'm free, I'm my own self
Stood by what my heart felt
My life is in my own hands
Don't wait for tomorrow, seize the day


5. The Tor


At the heart of all ancient leylines
Weaved throughout the mystical land
Earth and stone infused with a power
And a magic, deep as the myths have told

Feel the power soar
Surging through us all
The strength of the Tor

As the mist of eve climbs the hillside
All time is lost in the dark
Strange thoughts from a bygone era
Transported back to the days of yore

Feel the power soar
Surging through us all
The strength of the Tor

Far from the world that we know
The veil is getting thin now
A new horizon forms
And in the distance on high
The Tor is getting close now
Feel the power rising within, feel the force
The strength of the Tor

Strange lights, they dance in the twilight
Sweet music drifts through the air
As the entrance now is revealing
Pathways which lead to the underworld

Feel the power soar
Surging through us all
The strength of the Tor


6. Through A Glass Darkly


Journey through distant recollections
To a time that has begun to fade
So many thoughts and memories of lifetimes
Now gone by and taken to the grave
It is so hard to gather up the pieces
Of an age that's being laid to rest
No living memory will soon be left to tell us
Of the days which we should not forget

The stream of time is forever flowing
Drilling onwards endlessly
And dark, the view from behind is fading
Forgotten thoughts and memories
We strain to see back into the twilight
The past is swiftly leaving us
But faint, the voice from another era
May still be heard if you listen close

Wish I could see through the dark
What would I find as I saw past the veil

Through the shadows
As memories die
Time will keep the secrets
Forgotten years and days of our lives
And past the shadows
Where memories lie
Time will give the secrets
Echoing still as the years go by

We try to hold on to years behind us
And keep them safe within our mind
But what becomes when our soul's departed
And where are now these years to find
Somewhere beyond the fogs of ages
A gentle hand is taking care
Of all the lost days of summers, golden
You'll always find them waiting there

Wish I could see through the dark
What would I find as I saw past the veil

Through the shadows
As memories die
Time will keep the secrets
Forgotten years and days of our lives
And past the shadows
Where memories lie
Time will give the secrets
Echoing still as the years go by

It seems to me we cannot fully turn back
As I stand before this closing door
Yet I hold dear the echoes of past ages
'Cause I know I've been there once before


7. The Stars My Destination


Into oblivion, drifting on and on
Awaiting death since any hope I had was gone
Revenge can change a man, turn his life around
A life that's given meaning when a purpose has been found

And I know the time is coming
And I see, it's getting clear
Can it be that the stars are waiting
To receive us now

Creation, no beginning, no end to the circle of life
Destination, the stars are calling my name
Now I'm swimming through the timeless ocean
Travelling to the future and past
I'll give this gift through my devotion
Of seeing life survive to the last

There's times I've wondered why this happened to me
Why was I chosen to control man's destiny
To jaunte into the heavens, galaxies await
The future of mankind, it's time to seal our fate

And I know the time is coming
And I see, it's getting clear
Can it be that the stars are waiting
To receive us now

Creation, no beginning, no end to the circle of life
Destination, the stars are calling my name
Now I'm swimming through the timeless ocean
Travelling to the future and past
I'll give this gift through my devotion
Of seeing life survive to the last

And I know the time is coming
And I see, it's getting clear
Can it be that the stars are waiting
To receive us now

Creation, no beginning, no end to the circle of life
Destination, the stars are calling my name
Now I'm swimming through the timeless ocean
Travelling to the future and past
I'll give this gift through my devotion
Of seeing life survive to the last


8. Under The Greenwood Tree


Under the greenwood tree
We light with an outlaw bold
Swore oaths which we will uphold

Forced to flee into the forest
Or by our necks we'll swing
But we are free here under the greenwood
Now we live as kings

Hark now the hunting born
Rings out through the forest glades
We poach on the royal game

Stand defiant against the tyrants
Who bleed the country dry
Feed the poor, reward the deserving
Let arrows fly

Beneath the arcing boughs of green
A story is weaved
Come listen well this tale I tell
A legend woven through centuries gone
His tale lives on
So raise a glass to heroes past

Under the greenwood tree
We meet at the setting sun
With Robin the valiant one

Tales of brave deeds, men of honour
Who fought with sword and bow
Now let the fire dance to the music
Let the ale flow

Beneath the arcing boughs of green
A story is weaved
Come listen well this tale I tell
A legend woven through centuries gone
His tale lives on
So raise a glass to heroes past


9. Black Delta


The night is still cold and silent
The moon is resting high
I wait alone calmly watching
Gazing at the sky

I've been here once and I am certain
of the things that I saw
I feel compelled to sit here waiting
And see them once more

In the night sky
The things I've seen beneath the silver moon
In the night sky
They're calling me out there, a slave to this dark mystery

And all at once my senses sharpen
As I'm gripped with sudden fear
Out in the dark my eyes are straining
I know they will appear

And then they come, dark shapes moving
Swiftly through the sky
They're getting close, I can't out run them
Even if I try

In the night sky
The things I've seen beneath the silver moon
In the night sky
They're calling me out there, a slave to this dark mystery

A flash of light, my head is splitting
As I'm brought down to my knees
The time is lost, I can't remember
What it is I've seen

Yet still I know I must return there
And stare into the black
My mind is drawn, I cannot fight this
I know they want me back

In the night sky
The things I've seen beneath the silver moon
In the night sky
They're calling me out there, a slave to this dark mystery


10. A Deadly Premonition


Bright battalions are marching
They are due at the breaking of dawn
We await your command my Lord

Of this day I have forgotten
We shall ride out and meet them headlong
They shall fall upon our swords

Fall upon our swords

On the eve of battle
A vision clear to see
A deadly premonition
Foresees their victory

I see the death of many
I see my crumbling throne
But still we'll ride and meet them
We shall not alone

At the first rays of sunlight
Our reckoning day will begin
We'll fight but we will not win

Though the death dream has warned me
No mention of doom shall be told
Our troops will die fighting bold

Our troops will die fighting bold

On the eve of battle
A vision clear to see
A deadly premonition
Foresees their victory

I see the death of many
I see my crumbling throne
But still we'll ride and meet them
We shall not alone

Our troops will die fighting bold

On the eve of battle
A vision clear to see
A deadly premonition
Foresees their victory

I see the death of many
I see my crumbling throne
But still we'll ride and meet them
We shall not alone
