I, awake to the gray skies
I, inhale the toxic air
I, can't stand another day here
Every second, a new hell
Oldsville
Oldsville
I, hear whispers of places
Myths and rumours, but some are true
Some are close, just beyond the horizon
I, could travel there
I, must escape this place
Before it drains me of my life
I must travel to the gardens of the sucrose trees
My only hope for internal peace
Oldsville
Oldsville
Under a blanket of darkness I take my leave
Moving silently, soon I will be free
Treacherous path awaits, but I stand for the task
I will move on to better places than

Forest of Rot
02:41
|
|||
Sitting in the grime of the trench I didn't realize
Just how far the rot went
Acres and acres of black rotted trees hang
Branches over the sand
A maze of stenches and smells mark the graveyard
Of those travelled and failed
Tar pits and unspeakable creatures here
Kill quickly and dismember the corpse
Through the forest of rot, now, I travel
To escape from that horrible town
But I fear, I doubt and I question
Still I travel to a holier ground
In the dark of the night I'm protected
From evil forces, hunting for blood
In the light of the day I evade them, but
A single misstep and I'll drown in the mud
Human remains mark my path and remind me
Of the fate I'll meet if I don't succeed
The world behind me is as deadly as
The creatures that hide in these trees
Through the forest of rot, now, I travel
To escape from that horrible town
Without fear, without doubt, without question
On a journey to a holier ground
Startled awake by the cries of the creatures
Getting closer as the moon shines bright
Frozen with fear, then running faster than ever
Hideous laughter marks the start of the hunt
Dodging roots and branches as the trees try to stab me
The whole forest now thirsts for my blood
Weak from exhaustion, battered and bruised
On the verge of collapse I accept my doom
But I notice a field in the distance
An escape from a nightmarish tomb

Fresh Air
01:50

I breathe the summer air
I can feel my lungs again
The trees of rot are gone
Instead pink flowers bloom
I sit and rest awhile
But my journey's far from done
Feel the sun
The rays of hope shine down
Breathe the air
The fresh air fills my lungs
I don't want to leave
This is better than before
But deep inside I know
The best is further on
Feel the sun
The rays of hope shine down
Breathe the air
The fresh air fills my lungs
A moment of reprise
A second to relax
Before I journey on
Towards the sucrose trees
Feel the sun
The rays of hope shine down
Breathe the air
The fresh air fills my lungs

Stalker
01:40
|

Something is hunting me
It's in my past it's in my hands
It wants to take me back
Bushes rustle and figures creep behind me
Stalking hunting, trying to take me back
They whisper doubt into my dreams, tell me I am bound to fail
But there's a road back that's paved in gold
I've come too far to quit
I won't throw that away
You won't take that from me
No!
I'm leaving you behind
I'm throwing you away
It walks behind me, judging every step
What you had there was perfect, you can't walk away
There is no better world, no better life ahead
But if you come back now, they'll forget you left
You're only wasting time out here, keep going and you'll die
I can bring you home, join me in your old life
I've come too far to quit
I won't throw that away
You won't take that from me
No!
You'll never take me back
I'm leaving you behind
I'm throwing you away
It grabs me by the leg and drags me
Clawing to bring me back
I kick and struggle, shout and scream
Warn it to let me go
It laughs and cackles, mocks my words
Tells me I've no choice
There's one option, there's one way
I draw my knife, saw its neck and throw the evil head away
