The Forest Of Illusions

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Don't you start to slow down

Or the vines will draw you in

Don't run away

Because that's when their games will begin

Don't look, your eyes will betray you

Betray you

But the stars are shining too bright tonight

To remember the forest's treason

Or the ruins that pass us by

A false light, a shimmer and a shine

And then the moment's gone, they all carry on

They carry on

Don't you start to slow down

Or the vines will draw you in

Don't run away

Because that's when their games will begin

Look alive, don't be surprised

Look alive and you'll see it coming

Look alive, don't be surprised

Don't lose yourself to the illusions

Look alive, don't be surprised

Look alive and you'll see it coming

Look alive, look alive

A land of waking winds (look alive)

And ancients above the path within (alive)

When I looked up my feet had taken me

Where I've not been

Look alive, don't be surprised (surprised)

Look alive and you'll see it coming

Look alive

Don't lose yourself to the illusions

And so the wheel turns

And so the question burns

Where is the light that we all have been seeking?

Betray you
