Childe Roland

Traveling alone in an unknown world
Accepting the burden that never was mine
To carry on for the knights who have gone
Keeping their name and their honor sacred

Was he a liar who told me this path?
Treacherous smile contorted staff
There is a tower, I'm doomed to go
An unrevealed power this traveler must know

(I know)
I'll never return
But as long as there's breath in my lungs
Carry on I hear the call
My sword will burn
And the tower will crumble and fall
As I near it, I hear them say

Childe Roland to the Dark Tower came
The fallen have risen they're calling my name
Childe Roland to the Dark Tower came
Questing for vengeance to never be seen again

Casting off nightmares from unsleeping eyes
Grim are the visions of death undisguised
Long have I journeyed to unseen demise
All of my years wasted searching for lies

(It's time)
For me to die
But I fear that my tale won't be told
This misfortune is mine to hold

Childe Roland to the Dark Tower came
The fallen have risen they're calling my name
Childe Roland to the Dark Tower came
Questing for vengeance to never return

Childe Roland to the Dark Tower came
The fallen have risen they're screaming my name
Childe Roland to the Dark Tower came
Questing for vengeance to never be seen again
