Far Beyond ForeverWe ’re gathered here about the oldStone hearth of fire The flame burns cold And around the voices raise in shout For wood to burn and heat rise out A cask of ale and an open drum Will keep me dancing all night long A dash of brandy here and there The cooks out cold so he don’t even care... So Go! The air around you turns a smoky hue The smell of beer, death and mould I’ts a part of you We’ve spent a fortnight from the town And now the open cask it leaks we have to Drink it down And all through the night I believe in dreams Of the suffering I’ve caused I will not be redeemed There’s one place I’ll go That’s down to the deep, into the keep Into the realm of demons far below The stormy seas of madness takes a hold of me I feel it clenching tight onto my sanity I want it all, so far I’ve been denied I can feel it getting closer The edge to which, I’m slowly gonna fall Hail to the gods of the world And we will live forever A serpent rises to only fall Back down to Earth Into his wicked ways And did I repent from my sins? Did I hell! A man cannot have a moral conscience And expect to do the things that I do And as for the dreams? Ha! A mere recession from my early days The days when I might have felt pity! |
