The Decision Tree (We're Alive)
Ayreon
Forever of the Stars:
Ah, my friends! So light of foot. So swift. You have come this far. And now, here beneath the
ancient, omniscient boughs of the Decision Tree, one of you must depart this world of flesh.
Only seven may continue. Only you can decide...
BARBARIAN:
Let it be known I won't be the one to die here
Honour and glory are heaped upon my name
Let it be clear I'm not the one who cries here
What about the tall one, the one who's lost to shame
HIGHLANDER:
I've followed princes, I've raised their bloody banners
I've killed and wounded on the side of right
I've reaped the harvest and scattered fields with ashes
I've buried children, sowed the seeds of hate
ALL:
We're alive, we'll survive
We will strike for our freedom
We're alive, we'll survive
We'll arrive in our Eden
HIGHLANDER:
I've followed princes
I've followed kings
I will take their lead no more
I will not lie
In shallow graves
BARBARIAN:
Let it be known, by Thor, the god of lightning
I have been chosen to do battle at his side
Let it be clear I was born to go down fighting
What about the craven, the one who's lost his pride
HIGHLANDER:
Don't speak to me of honour, pride and glory
I've tasted blood, seen your type before
You talk of battle but all you tell are stories
You'd see me buried in a shallow grave
ALL:
We're alive, we'll survive
We will strike for our freedom
We're alive, we'll survive
We'll arrive in our Eden
HIGHLANDER:
I've followed princes
I've followed kings
I will take their lead no more
I will not lie
In shallow graves
I'm nobody's slave
ALL:
We're alive, we'll survive
We will strike for our freedom
We're alive, we'll survive
We'll arrive in our Eden
