Legends From Now and Nevermore
Galloglass Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've planned a deal with unknown mights
And hope to win no compromise
The mighty beast in front of me
That can fulfill my dreams
But I defraud the guarding beast
The keeper of this mystic tale
It banished me into my dreams
Now I've to suffer in hell

I've seen a thousands worlds before
But this one is the strangest
In front of me a gleaming stone
That once was filled with magic
In it's inscription stands
That I'll have just one chance
When the demon is gone
I can return

Now, when the demon is gone
I can return back to reality
I have just one chance to leave this legend
From now and from nevermore

My time here is running out
The beholder's getting weaker
Behind his throne the open gate
That leads to my salvation

But suddenly the demon opens his eyes
And a dreadful flash is blowing me away
My whole body is surrounded by fire
And something is dragging me deeper into this dream

Now, when the demon is gone
I can return back to reality




I have just one chance to leave this legend
From now and from nevermore

Line by Line Meaning

I've planned a deal with unknown mights
I've made an agreement with entities that are unfamiliar to me


And hope to win no compromise
And I anticipate victory without the need to negotiate or give up anything


The mighty beast in front of me
The powerful creature in my presence


That can fulfill my dreams
That can bring to fruition my deepest desires


But I defraud the guarding beast
But I deceive the creature tasked to watch over this place


The keeper of this mystic tale
The entity responsible for preserving the legends of this realm


It banished me into my dreams
It sends me away to a world of my own imagining


Now I've to suffer in hell
Now I must endure torment and anguish in this world of my own making


I've seen a thousands worlds before
I have visited countless realms in my travels


But this one is the strangest
But this one stands out as particularly foreign and bizarre


In front of me a gleaming stone
Before me is a gem with a radiant luster


That once was filled with magic
That used to have mystical properties


In it's inscription stands
Its marking reads


That I'll have just one chance
That I will only have a single opportunity


When the demon is gone
When the powerful monster is defeated


I can return
I can go back to my own reality


My time here is running out
My stay in this strange world is coming to an end


The beholder's getting weaker
The guardian is becoming less powerful


Behind his throne the open gate
The entrance to my escape is located behind the creature's seat of power


That leads to my salvation
That will take me to my safe return to my own world


But suddenly the demon opens his eyes
But suddenly, the monster awakens


And a dreadful flash is blowing me away
And a terrifying blast pushes me away


My whole body is surrounded by fire
My entire body is engulfed in flames


And something is dragging me deeper into this dream
And something is pulling me further into this imaginary world


Now, when the demon is gone
Finally, after defeating the monster


I can return back to reality
I can finally go back to my own world


I have just one chance to leave this legend
I only have one opportunity to escape this strange story


From now and from nevermore
Now and forevermore, put it all behind me

I could write a book on how sad it is that bands like this are not known in mainstream society, and I'm just an outside observer. That said, there's something special about being one of the few people aware of them eh? :3

Varmek
