the dark horde - destiny lyrics

Loading...

i became resigned to the power of the visions
recognising my place in the scheme of things
and realising the futility of it all

with time i learnt to hide the visions’ effects
and ceased even to tell others of their existence
by the age of sixteen, i was deemed cured
and ready to join the “real world”

but i had merely learnt to wear the mask of sanity
sometimes however, the mask slipped
and deeds of darkness came to light

i would awake alone in a dark forest, shivering
then i’d realise i dreamt this
somehow i had sleepwalked into the forest at night
the black shapes of swaying trees crowded around me
and the wind taunted in strange voices

then i’d notice the candle+lit marks etched in the dirt before me
if what i just dreamt was real, then we were in great danger

screaming, i’d run through moonless undergrowth
until i found a road i could follow home
or someone found me, bruised and feverish, the next day
my fate was inevitable. i was doomed to repeat history

neither drugs nor therapy stopped my sleepwalking
and before long i was sleeping in restraints
at seventeen i left school and moved with my parents
from howqua hills to far away melbourne

with the move, my sleepwalking ended
i began a new life among strangers who did not know my past, nor care
they teased me for my country background
but accepted me as normal, as someone who was dependable

but never did the visions relent
ever reminding me of who i was and was destined to be
every waking hour, the visions called to me
and every night, i would return
