Harbinger

On a perilous quest, to start the test
Ten miles east and ten miles west
Journeys across the forbidden lands
Through poisonous marshes and swirling sands
Defending the wrong, defending the right
Fighting for his right to fight
Motive gone and his purpose lost
But he'll win at any cost

What is it you're looking for?
Harbinger harbinger
What is it you're seeking?
Harbinger harbinger
No way to know just what's in store
Harbinger harbinger
Glory's only fleeting

The burning cold and the freezing heat
In victory he finds defeat
Obeying decrees which no longer exist
In order to earn the dead maiden's kiss
Searching for answers that will never be found
Slayers slain as they're slammed to the ground
An endless end to a pointless point
As he wanders on and on

Harbinger harbinger
What is it you're seeking?
Harbinger harbinger
