Prompt:
*(Verse 1)*
The mountain sleeps beneath the snow
The river knows the way to go
No lantern burns, no voices call
Just wind that whispers through it all
I walk alone where shadows bend
A road with neither start nor end
The moon hangs pale above the trees
And ancient spirits ride the breeze
*(Pre-Chorus)*
Every stone remembers names
Every scar recalls the flames
*(Chorus)*
Into the wilderness I go
Where only silent rivers flow
No king, no crown, no path to see
The wilderness is calling me
Into the wilderness I run
Beneath the cold and distant sun
The dark may take the rest of me
But still I walk, still I am free
*(Verse 2)*
The wolves are singing on the ridge
The frost has built a crystal bridge
The branches claw the midnight sky
Like hands that never learned to die
I hear the echo of the past
Of battles fought and spells once cast
Forgotten towers buried deep
Where sleeping legends never sleep
*(Pre-Chorus)*
Every shadow hides a door
Every step reveals much more
*(Chorus)*
Into the wilderness I go
Where only silent rivers flow
No king, no crown, no path to see
The wilderness is calling me
Into the wilderness I run
Beneath the cold and distant sun
The dark may take the rest of me
But still I walk, still I am free
*(Bridge)*
Ohhh-ohhh-ohhh...
The forest watches
Ohhh-ohhh-ohhh...
The mountains know
Ohhh-ohhh-ohhh...
The old world calls me
Where few would dare to go
*(Instrumental Break)*
*(Final Chorus)*
Into the wilderness I go
Through drifting ice and falling snow
No throne could ever comfort me
Like endless skies and ancient trees
Into the wilderness I run
Beneath the stars when day is done
The dark may take the rest of me
But still I walk, still I am free
*(Outro)*
The river knows the way to go
The mountain sleeps beneath the snow
And far beyond what eyes can see
The wilderness remembers me...
