Calling through, a channel unknown Familiar, it oscillates There's no one here, we're not alone Can it be? There's something beneath A voice that seems to rise above buried below, calling to me I cannot hear, cannot see the source There's a pull pressing me An ethereal force As sure as the winds blow Something alive wants to be known Wounds rooted deep beneath (The floor of the forest reaching out to me) Ancient pain unfolds (coursing out) To pierce our souls Can you feel, how the song it bleeds From the corners of our realm In the tongues of the trees I still feel home is here (We are adopted by the new frontier) As we stare at the place we have come to I fall asleep (Join with the Earth) So you will always be, by my side As we fall, our claim is only stronger Join with the Earth (Join with the Earth) Forget where you come from This is your home now I am you now, Where do you end? Where do I begin (I am) We are combined, Identities aligned Hear the sound of the forest Can you feel the Wounds rooted deep beneath (The floor of the forest reaching out to me) Ancient pain unfolds (coursing out) To pierce our souls

How have you strayed so far We were so close not long ago Would you lie And attempt to deceive me Look in my eyes And you will see We invent what we perceive Schism It is time to depart now We have grown apart indiscernible traits But I still see you I cannot articulate it Intuitive repulsion Drives my hate Ancestors Can you hear us Who Has your favour Who will inherit you Fratricide (It's the only way forward) Circumstance has pushed us To the point of no return I will strike you Down Can you hear, as the song, it bleeds From the corners of our realm In the tongues of the trees I still feel home is here We have destroyed all that we've built here Where is the line between us How have we grown apart Can you tell me how the wounds heal If we continue to spill our blood Divide us, my brother There's too much pain to bury In an instant, we are severed I will take what's mine My claim My right We will survive So close but distinctly different We bisect the forest
