lyrics

If you go to the roundabout
At the edge of the town
You will see a little trail
That can lead you away

And in the vale of shadows
Where the barley and thistle grow
The air is strangely calm
As the winds swirl and blow

Who were the people who lived here?
What did they believe?
What did they fight for?
And did they have peace?

Then you see the hills above
With a castle as a crown
A labyrinth of shadows and light
In a land of fairytales

And it makes me wonder
Who drank from these wells
Was the water sweeter than wine?
Or tainted with some bitterness of life?

Who were the people who lived here?
What did they believe?
What did they fight for?
And did they have peace?

Here we stand in the shadow of a fantasy
Trying to measure up
But this is just an illusion, nothing is real
But it's so peaceful here

Out in the distance
Lies the fortress anew
A museum of empty shells
Of the passions we used to feel
