Tela

Lyrics

[Narration] Forbin and the Unit Monster were crouched over the soggy knight, carefully removing his bulky helmet, when the colonel heard a sound behind him. He turned around and came face to face with an enormous shaggy horse-like creature covered from head to tail with alternating blotches of brown and white. It was a two-toned multi-beast, and atop the multi-beast sat the most beautiful woman the colonel had ever seen. After fifty-two years of undaunted bachelorhood, the colonel felt a feeling rush over him that he had never felt before… [Verse 1] The sky is burning in this lonely land And I kneel by the river and I feel the sand and the wind [Hook] The wind from beyond the mountain The wind from beyond the mountain [Verse 2] And she comes to me in this lonely land And looks down from the multi-beast on which she rides like the wind [Hook] The wind from beyond the mountain Wind from beyond the mountain [Instrumental Break] [Interlude 1] Tela was born in a vulgar crooked hut In the shadow of Wilson's castle A venomous scorn from a life of bitter toil In the shadow of Wilson's castle Glory esteem, fueled by her hatred, it grew Swelling to the point where it would Burst at the seems; there was nothing she could do Tela, Tela, jewel of Wilson's foul domain Tela, Tela, jewel of Wilson's foul domain A lullaby the breezes whisper [Verse 3] And I look into her eyes and my frozen heart begins to thaw And burn, 'til layer after layer melts away into a pool A sky blue mirror of her eyes [Verse 4] And my soul is made of marble, but in her gaze I crumble into dust and drift away on the wind [Hook] The wind from beyond the mountain The wind from beyond the mountain [Instrumental Break] [Interlude 2] Tela grew strong from her struggle to endure In the shadow of Wilson's castle Time touched her wounds, and shelter proved the cure In the shadow of Wilson's castle Each passing day seemed to feed the brazen serpent locked inside And liberate the spirit she'd concealed For so long, there was no place left to hide Tela, Tela, jewel of Wilson's foul domain Tela, Tela, jewel of Wilson's foul domain A lullaby the breezes whisper
