The Exiles Song (Chris & Paul McMahon)

Watchers guard the entrance to the never ending spiral
Leading out 'til you reach the mountain side
We have journeyed through many lands and many things we've seen
But never have we known such a time
The gates of our homeland are closed for evermore
By the evil which lurks deep inside
Many time we've tried and many times we've failed
To take back what once was our own

Then from afar came the message of war throughout the land
And offers of allegiance to the great and dark land
So we came to you our friends for council in this dark time
For war we have no wish, just need peace of mind

And so they spoke deep in the night of many things long past
And answered many things long forgotten
But the light of the Western world was darkened as they spoke
And the darkness weighed heavy on all those there

Looking to the west many wished to return
But what ship would bear us 'cross so wide a sea
And in a dream I saw a lone figure standing proud
In the moonlight on top of the stair

And then I head the crashing waves upon the Western shore
And I wished to leave this land of darkness hate and war
Fly across the sea seek and we may find
But the darkness grows deeper for us and all our kind

His stronghold in our fair woods has long since been destroyed
But the evil still lingers one
When the evening draws on and the feasting ends
Then his memory still lasts til the morn

Until the morn

Then a shadow blocked the sun spreading terror and death
The king fell upon the field
But the creature was slain and the battle renewed
when the dead came to honour their oath

The king rode forth and the enemy withdrew
Before gleaming Anduril forged anew
The tide of the battle turned and that host did retreat
Although they fought on They faced defeat

Midst the blood and fire of battle there's a cone of light shines down
Down from the white magicians hand
And above the cries of battle there's a stillness in the air
Far above the eagles flying high
Fly high
