The Decision Tree (We're Alive)

Lyrics: Fish Music: Arjen Anthony Lucassen Ah, my friends! So light of foot. So swift. You have come this far. And now- here beneath the ancient, omniscient boughs of the Decision Tree one of you must depart this world of flesh. Only seven may continue. Only you can decide.... BARBARIAN: Let it be known I won't be the one to die here honor and glory are heaped upon my name let it be clear I'm not the one who cries here what about the tall one, the one who's lost to shame HIGHLANDER: I've followed princes, I've raised their bloody banners I've killed and wounded on the side of right I've reaped the harvest, scattered fields with ashes I've buried children, sowed the seeds of hate ALL: We're alive(I've followed prices) We'll survive(I've followed kings) we will strive for our freedom(I will take their lead no more) We're alive(I will not lie) We'll survive(in shallow graves) We'll arrive in our Eden BARBARIAN: Let it be known, by Thor the god of Lightning I have been chosen to do battle at his side let it be clear I was born to go down fighting what about the craven, the one who's lost his pride? HIGHLANDER Don't speak to me, of honor, pride, and glory I've tasted blood, seen your type before you talk of battles but all you tell are stories you'd see me buried in a shallow grave ALL: We're alive(I've followed prices) We'll survive(I've followed kings) we will strive for our freedom(I will take their lead no more) We're alive(I will not lie) We'll survive(in shallow graves) We'll arrive in our Eden(I'm nobody's slave) ALL: We're alive We'll survive we will strive for our freedom We're alive We'll survive We'll arrive in our Eden
