The song I sing is of distant lands,

By the sea and the sandy shore,

Beyond the hills and valleys,

In a kingdom that is no more

The song I sing is of mermaids fair,

As they calm waves with their dwindling tune,

And dragons in their caves of stone,

And butterflies who circle the moon.

The song I sing is of castles high,

Towering over a hollowed world,

As holy men murder the sinners,

‘Longside maidens with skin of pearl.

The song I sing is of days gone by,

A whisper where once was a roar,

Of millions of graves trodden into the dust,

In a kingdom that is no more.
