Riverside - Forgotten Land lyrics
[Riverside - Forgotten Land lyrics]
Look at this field my son
Deserted, empty place
Where the dead silence feeds on lost whispers
There was a Kingdom here a City full of life
Songs of it's praise were being
Sung by the mountains oh, listen to them now
People felt strong and powerful
Proud of their wealth
All of them believed they were
Kings of the whole world
They started to take more
And crossed the borderlines
Called themselves gods above
Everything and everyone
Oh, listen to them now
Faster and faster higher and higher
Great temples of gold grew taller
And glittered in the sun
Gods, too sure of themselves
Never lost their pride
Even when the altars and
Monuments started to collapse
Oh, how quickly they died
Oh, how quickly they turned into
The dust of the forgotten land
Listen intently souls are crying
This is the song of the forgotten land
Deserted, empty place
Where the dead silence feeds on lost whispers
There was a Kingdom here a City full of life
Songs of it's praise were being
Sung by the mountains oh, listen to them now
People felt strong and powerful
Proud of their wealth
All of them believed they were
Kings of the whole world
They started to take more
And crossed the borderlines
Called themselves gods above
Everything and everyone
Oh, listen to them now
Faster and faster higher and higher
Great temples of gold grew taller
And glittered in the sun
Gods, too sure of themselves
Never lost their pride
Even when the altars and
Monuments started to collapse
Oh, how quickly they died
Oh, how quickly they turned into
The dust of the forgotten land
Listen intently souls are crying
This is the song of the forgotten land
