Dundar the Barbarian - The Nightmare Forest

Fell
The nightmare
That captured your mind
Let the dusk fall
Abandon your time
A funeral forsaken
Obliterate the notion
Of peaceful passage by
A memory of what we
Lost and cast into the sea
Of sludge and smog and rote disease
A history of failing
To learn and not repeat the past
We teach ourselves to lie
And tread the beaten path to die
We teach ourselves to fucking lie
And there's no repercussions here
Blame not yourself
But ask who to blame for our existential crisis
Burn
Burn all the trees
Burn
Down to the ground
And when there's nothing more
Burn
Just say we did our best
To lie
We teach ourselves to lie
And waste each day until we die
We teach ourselves to fucking lie
And there's no solace
Fuck the ideal
Of faith that we'll find a better way
To live
To try
To find
A different path
We learn we must lie
And pray till we die
We teach them to lie
So they will obey
Cast off
To sunlit shores
And leave behind the essence of youth
Row
To your demise
Row
To bitter ends
Row
To salvation
Run
Run
Run
Escape the claws
There's no way out
There's no way out
The path is gone
There's no way out
And you shall burn
Burn with the trees
And return to the ground
From whence you first emerged
Burn
A seed reborn anew
There's no way out
There's no way out
There's no way out
Burn
Relive the fire
Burn all the trees
Down to the ground
We bid farewell on the hilltop
A graveyard of memories
Your tomb is there
And so is mine
