lyrics

Traveller was cast out
Upon the land
No friend could extend a single hand
No more water
No rushing streams
Only dust clouds
Misery

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

Upon a hilltop
He rose to stand
Swollen vistas
Barren land

Over dull valley
Fell crystal strands
Of purple poison
On burning sand

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

Ship that sailed now
Tatters ungrand
Repair a wasted thought at best

Through the darkest of deepest black
Current had called them
No turning back

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

Though the earth sparked
In distant view
The cost to reach it
Reset anew

Beyond the pale hills
There sits a king
And court at ready
Swords willing

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

How long his footfalls
They rose and fell
The air it thickened
A bitter gel

Still rolled those tall hills
And wide expanse
Winged creatures circled
Slow advance

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

- SOLO -

Pon a stone hovel
He surely came
Door was open
Chimes rang

There rested a head
Shorn of the rest
Upon a stove top
Heat was set

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

It’s eyes were wise set
Of piercing blue
Though iris swirling
Kaleidoscope view

He swung and kicked it
Terror infused
Scrambling backward
Stove fire grew

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

As he rose shaking
Upon his feet
A voice it whispered
Assuringly

Though my head speaks
Sure, my body sleeps
In that expanse of empty Black Sea

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

The king shall grant you
One question asked
With your arms aiming
You’ll never pass

He spreads his love upon
Curiosity
For it’s there fate she stows the key

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

- SOLO (electric) -

A final hill crossed
Shallow valley
There shines the castle
Towering keep

So parched he enters
The court he sees
Flowing water
Up to his knees

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

Now as he bathes fine
Now as he drinks
The court it circles
Joined voices sing

Irises swirling
Strange horns and rings
After the banquet
He asks to speak

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

The king he nods kind
Upon this wish
His love and patience
He’ll surely give

Traveler he rises
He nods and bows
He feels a weight there
Crumples and falls

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

When he awakens
He spies a void
Hovering silent
expanding proud

It’s arms and tendrils
They call him home
He backs away now
So toward the throne

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

He asks the king now
To here, I go
The king he nods sure
Upon the throne

But what of paradise
And streets of gold
Our soul’s redemption
Of which we’re told

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

The king he gestures
As if to shrug
Says mind and matter
Combined a drug

The mind is void of
Limits imposed
If only matter was but a ghost

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

You melt your metal
You raise your stone
You split the heavens
Till there you roam

You drain all matter
You call it home
So here’s the final wall
Too wide a moat

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na

The king he casts him
Into the void
The traveller protests
In fading voice

One brings all matter
Upon his knees
At this abundance
He’ll surely cease

Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na
