I know that I saw ahead
I saw beyond the wall of time
my whole life unfolded before my eyes
I saw my own end draw near
and then I knew
the bright north star
would sail my destiny to sea
to take me to the ends of earth
and feel a thousand pains
I took the path to the smoking mountain
where the golden eyes watched my soul
the fire breathed from the dragon’s mouth
and absorbed my thoughts within
I read the book of knowledge past
bound with the good and evil flaming tree
the lady would never forgive you
her garden would never let you stay
that’s why I had to leave
that’s why they called me away
to ride the clouds where your dreams play
to soar above your soul
*know* that my days are numbered here
but I’ll always feel your pain
