lyrics

High in the Gold Forest Hills
There stands a man made of glass
At dawn he even looks real

A green coat sunbleached to tan
A hand that clutched a clay cup
A face that showed his legs would not kneel
He never once kneeled
He never once yield

A family from dust red sands
A wife from evergreen frost
One day the land split in feud

A choice between war and war
He could not make so he fled
Until on the Gold Forest peak he stood

He watched new borders
Massacre orders…

‘May every blade turn to rust
May every flag turn to white
Until then I will stand fast’

When the last barricade falls
Walk up the Gold Forest trail
He’ll smile once then shatter at last
