Why oh why do you trust them so soon
Like a traveller in a desert drinking from a lagoon
You let go so quickly and let them come through
The lights in your courtyard forest green and blinding blue
You drop your walls like there were none
The chains the locks so quickly undone
The towers the chambers the dungeons the cellars
The places you hid from the building tremors
Vanished as you let them, let all of them in
Blown away like smoke, by the silent wind
Why oh why do you trust them so soon
Like a traveller in a desert drinking from a lagoon
Don't you know how the last war was lost
Have you forgotten how it left you and your past
Remember again why you put up those towers
Remember again the demise of all your powers
To pick up the pieces and join them again you hid
And again now the key to your door from your hands it slid
Once inside they have the power they have the might
To tear and break and shatter you from inside
Why oh why do you trust them so soon
Like a traveller in a desert drinking from a lagoon
Now it's done and destroyed and shattered and broken
No spells can keep out what into your doors you've taken
Now hope now pray that you made the right choice
Is it your joy or agony that makes them rejoice
You shouldn't have trusted in them so soon
Like that traveller who realised he can't drink from a lagoon
Like the traveller who sat thirsty for he let the joy in too soon.
