Your castle has become ruins

Horses now are made of steel

Wish I listened to Kilghagrah

Time doesn’t make all hearts heal

I would pray to the high priestess

But our Old Gods are far gone

Street graffiti of a dragon

Takes me back to Avalon

Legends bring no truth nor comfort

So I take the midnight train

Living, fighting, always waiting

Just a way to numb the pain

I’d stay patient, buy the river

Magic making water dance

Warlock’s honour, no more secrets

Give me just another chance

We would sit there, reminiscing

Round the table with your knights

Dear friend, come back already

Or I might just lose my mind

Inspired by the legend of King Arthur, as well as BBC series “Merlin”
