In the depths of the forest a man stood by the river
His eyes as deep as the water, his soul a sliver
He whispered to the fish as they danced in the light
Tales of ancient secrets mysteries of the night
He spoke of distant lands of mountains high and wide
Of creatures lurking in the shadows of heroes who defied
The darkness that consumes us the fears that hold us tight
The man by the river a beacon in the night
His words were like music a symphony so sweet
In harmony with nature a melody complete
The fish swam closer entranced by his song
Their scales shimmering a dance that belonged
To the man who talked to the river the fish who flew high
In dreams of wonder, where reality does lie
He is the one we long for the one we aspire
To be like the man who talked to the river who set our hearts on fire
So let us follow his footsteps let us learn his ways
To speak to the river to hear what it says
In the symphony of nature in the beauty of the night
We'll find our own purpose our own guiding light
For the man who talked to the river, the fish that flew high
Is a dream we all share a vision in the sky
In the world of symphonic metal where the music never dies
We'll be like the man who talked to the river with fire in our eyes
Fire in our eyes
Fire in our eyes
Fire in our eyes
Fire in our eyes
