Valley

Lyrics: Auran Music: Auran Feeling the wind Cooling me down Arrived in this valley Far from the town Far from the noise Far from the heat Life here seems pure The fruits taste so sweet Getting closer to the village I start to understand Strangers like myself are not seen as the common man Mouths are smiling but the eyes they tell another tale Asking for the shaman they point up but more they do not tell At the top there is a house of, considerable size Decorated with skulls, flags and painted eyes Before I knock I am called inside, he knows my name He knows why I am here, the trip was not in vain Climb through the sky I seek a new life Climb through the sky I run from life The ritual starts Smoke fills the room The tension is heated My mind is a blur I start to see things That are not there Things I thought lost Futures not lived Running through the forest, being chased by Evil men that I did not know I Yelling into the night while I am fleeing Gripped fear and hopeless feelings My legs are short, growing closer Short of breath, wish for my mother Looking down the road, see my brother And his gun goes The scene is changed, the sun is shining My suit is new, velvet lining Receive a medal, from the king This is the feeling, when you win The vision shifts and finally I see it The goal of my quest the golden iris Behind a waterfall in the mountain Veiled by mist and long forgotten Claiming this price would make me famous I will be so courageous The vision fades and I wake up Climb through the sky I seek a new life Climb through the sky I run from life Climbing up the mountain side I have left my mule behind I am only of one mind To reach the cave behind The waterfall is thrashing The sound it is deafening The ice water is painful But I make a break for it Illuminated by my torch The cave is moldy and cold The chest looks awfully old I hope it contains gold I give the lid hard shove Inside I find it all The smell of tobacco smoke Someone’s behind me, oh
