Dragonland - A Thousand Towers White lyrics
[Dragonland - A Thousand Towers White lyrics]
Gaze upon silvery seashores
With the sand on my feet and
With the sun on my back
For days the coast leads my journey shining
In the misty dew I see
There, a thousand spires
Glowing like fire in the sun
I see them rising o'er these open plains
And I know I shall remember forever
How I saw a thousand towers white
When young I was told
Of a city of might and of honour
An empire's crown
As powerful as it was feared
And now as I stand before her
I set my eyes upon a waking dream
There, a thousand spires
Gleaming like ice in the sun
I see them rising o'er these open plains
And I know I shall remember forever
How I saw a thousand towers white
Mirrorlike gates stretch before me
Blazing serene in the dawn
Split open for vast lines of many men
I gaze beyond in bewilderment
Shattered hearts and dreams
Crushed by grievous tyranny
Crumbling homes and screams
Among corrupted industry
A sinister reign
Brother is turned against brother
Irrational fear enslaved the dwarves
And the elves
What lies beyond such oppression?
Shining towers cast a shade on me
There, a thousand spires
Glowing like fire in the sun
But, I see no honour in these broken men
Yet I know I will remember forever
How I saw a thousand towers white
