Lyrics

The Peach Tree - A Darker Shade Of Tao (12) The Wheel Of Time

Soldiers of The Dark ascend to battle with The Light.
Krishna tells Arjuna he must carry on the fight.
But bloody hands are not my thing and I don't wanna die,
Though I often wonder how and when and sometimes wonder why.

Like pawns upon a chessboard we can only go one way,
And hope to god our rulers know the price we have to pay.
Inside the forest is a garden where we go to play,
But outside eyes of crystal blue cut everything away.

I want to be a human being,
Ignore the pain that I am feeling,
But Desire fuels the Burning,
That sears my flesh away.

Inside the Void I can feel nothing,
Except the Light that's always there,
Casting shadows on the ceiling,
That blow my mind away.

Armed with a Thakandar blade
And lots of charisma,
He deftly persuaded the winter
To alter its course.

They battled through Shadow and Light
Throughout all of time,
'Til the taint of saidin
Ran amok in their minds.
