...Of Forests Unknown... - Falkenbach

On eagle’s swift and supple wings

I tore through the utter black

No clouds above, no ground below

The flame’s my only light

I fell into nothingness until the impact ceased my fall

Into a world unknown to man…

From a forest, unspoiled, unseen, I perceived

A whispering, summoning me

To follow the path of no return

Step by step I walked this route nobody ever built

Holding tight onto my shield and sword…

A cloaking darkness embraces me

Though flames are burning bright

In a distance far a flickering

The blaze my guiding light

Snow, caress me, sharp and cold, in the very depths of my hearth

Tired, frightened now I am;

my will now fall’s apart…

From a forest, unspoiled, unseen, I perceive

A whispering summoning me

To follow the path of no return

Step by step I walk this route nobody ever built

Holding tight onto my shield and sword…
