lyrics

Oh, Monk Phanom...
Is this the end?
Send word to Sounthone
You both were my friends
These visions so odd, do they spell my doom?
Light up my thoughts, rid of these nightmares
To be of the purest, i tried my best
The nice things you said
Would you take it all back?
Or will you all still think highly of me?
Save them like you tried to save me...
Could i still redeem myself,
Even long after death?

So i set rules myself
But i just can't hold them strong
At least not strong enough
To call them convictions

And it seems to me that everyone wants run
Run, run, run...
But i don't blame them
No, i don't blame them
And it seems to me that everyone wants to tell
Tell, Tell, Tell...
But they're too afraid to of speaking

And i wear this cowl for identity
But it's just not me
These temples that i dwell in
May just see the sins in me
But i can't help it any longer
And the heart in me is telling me
These deities aren't really watching!

And it seems to me that everyone wants run
But i don't blame them!
And it seems to me that everyone wants to tell
But they're too afraid to of speaking

They're too afraid
They've come for the ivory
They're too afraid
Run...

Because Sounthone & Phanom screamed, Run!
They've come for 'The Ivory'


i:
"And that was it. Cohbrus ran.
He ran with all his might. For it certainly meant his life.
With parting words prepared, he yelled:
'i will come back to save you! i promise...'
And as years & years passed Cohbrus,
the young monk realized
that he had witnessed an attack not meant for his sight.
Throught this guilt, he took a torch to his eyes
& burned them; set alight. Cohbrus was now blind.
And forever in exile, as a man named, FireEyes...
He would ride."


FireEyes Rider:
"Quema mis ojos! Quema mis ojos!
En exilio, dejame' cabalgar..."
