Riverside - Forgotten Land Lyrics

Look at this field, my son
Deserted, empty place
Where the dead
Silence feeds on lost whispers
There was a Kingdom here
A city full of life
Songs of its praise were being sung by the mountains
Oh, listen to them now
(Listen to them now
Listen to them now)

People felt strong and powerful
Proud of their wealth
All of them believed they were kings of the whole world
They started to take more
And crossed the borderlines
Called themselves gods above everything
And everyone
Oh, listen to them now
(Listen to them now
Listen to them now)

Faster and faster
Higher and higher
Great temples of gold grew taller
And glittered in the sun
Gods, too sure of themselves
Never lost their pride
Even when the altars and monuments
Started to collapse

Oh, how quickly they died
Oh, how quickly they turned into
The dust
Of the forgotten land
Forgotten land

Listen intently
Souls are crying
This is the song
Of the forgotten land
Forgotten land
Forgotten land
Forgotten land
