Afflicted – The Oracle lyrics
Deep into the mountains of the north
I ride on this pilgrimage of mine
No, I've never travelled here before
At the journey's end I hope to find
Old man with eyes of blind
Gaze into your star pond
Stars on stars and one am I
Trajecting open sky
Yeah, yeah, oracle of old
I want my fate foretold
Leaves of autumn on my path
The nights are growing cold
I keep the wolves away with fire
Not far till I reach eternal snow
Somewhere here there should be
A secret marble bridge
Across the deepest rift
Onto a narrow ridge
Yeah, yeah, oracle of old
I want my fate foretold
Finally I've found this cave
And there the hermit sits on rugs
I pay the price he asks in gold
Now gaze into your star pond, man
"Your soul is damned, you soon shall die"
No, this is wrong, must be a lie
Oracle of false, you'll pay for this
Now taste the sweetness of my blades's kiss
The star pond now erupts
As the oracle lies dead
The old man was surely right
And so the shock wave cracks my head
Yeah, Yeah, oracle of old
Now dead be we, as we foretold
I ride on this pilgrimage of mine
No, I've never travelled here before
At the journey's end I hope to find
Old man with eyes of blind
Gaze into your star pond
Stars on stars and one am I
Trajecting open sky
Yeah, yeah, oracle of old
I want my fate foretold
Leaves of autumn on my path
The nights are growing cold
I keep the wolves away with fire
Not far till I reach eternal snow
Somewhere here there should be
A secret marble bridge
Across the deepest rift
Onto a narrow ridge
Yeah, yeah, oracle of old
I want my fate foretold
Finally I've found this cave
And there the hermit sits on rugs
I pay the price he asks in gold
Now gaze into your star pond, man
"Your soul is damned, you soon shall die"
No, this is wrong, must be a lie
Oracle of false, you'll pay for this
Now taste the sweetness of my blades's kiss
The star pond now erupts
As the oracle lies dead
The old man was surely right
And so the shock wave cracks my head
Yeah, Yeah, oracle of old
Now dead be we, as we foretold
