And so the wicked came to lead him from his home Through leveled trees and trampled pastures, the ruins he would roam But still they want for more, to build their war machine And yet a soul doth rise from lustful eyes unseen They care not for the wondrous, the beauty of the earth But good will rise from within his heart To save them from themselves, and to see his home's rebirth Gone my sacred home, men they have forsaken Gaia Embers all around, scorch the fallen trees with fire Sack the war brigades, they will pay in death and their own Blood will fill the cracks of the soil and grow the trees anew Born in men a hunger, wasted on their warfare They consume each other, shackled in deceit Now I stalk unspoken through the swamps and mires Through the twisted trees, this land shall be set free Wandering alone, my friends the trees have all been hacked Away the soldiers march, to attack their brothers with the Wood and steel they mined, raping lands to further their own Greed will be the end of this wondrous land that gave us life Life they care not of it, lest it be for profit Brother killing brother, will it never cease? I will not be silenced as our home is squandered Their fortress shall be breached, this land shall be set free I will journey to their castle, to the fortress of the damned They will pay for their destruction of this wondrous magic land Through the forests and the rivers, and the valleys once were green I would die to save my homeland from the human hands of greed To the houses of our fathers, on the land we lived and died Our spirits live together, holy is the earth and sky When we hate and kill our sisters, to our fate will come the end I would journey on forever to be brothers once again "We hold the secret, we hold the truth God is with us now and our power is our proof Surrender to us now for we are in control You may be saved yet if you just give up your soul" Can you not see true beauty that lies here? You waste the gifts of Gaia, you're blind from hate and fear To claim the truth is fruitless, your god is naught but lies Control is an illusion and your hubris your demise For the brave and for the true, we will fight the hate Of the tyrant's righteous war, so to seal our fate "To your wretched hall steel and fire did we bring Of your sacred forest bards of lore shall never sing We'll slay the heathen tribes, and the trolls we'll lock in chains God shall lead my rule until the savior comes again" If you kill me now, only sorrow will you bring To kill a man is to kill the rivers and the trees I'll sail beyond the sunset to the land of evermore The earth will be my master, the forest and the storm For the brave and for the true, we will fight the hate Of the tyrant's righteous war, so to seal our fate For the wisdom and the light, for the sacred wood There's a fire in our souls, so to use for good And so the brave troll did battle that day The blood of his foes the ground it did stain Their ships sailed away, their towers did fall As vengeance was had by the guardian of old The king was dethroned and his armies were slain Great Gaia's fair lands were cleansed in the rain Their halls washed away, their pride was brought low Their god as a false wicked tyrant was shown And still do the bards of lore to this day Sing of our hero the troll's epic lay That day did we hear peace and freedom's call As the fortress of kings did fall
