Quest
Spirit Fox Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me what I'll need
To succeed
In this quest, towards darkness
Black riders in the night
A knife in the dark
Chasing after me, through shadow
And I cannot believe
In all the things I've seen
This foe is way beyond
Any of us
Tell me what I'll need
To succeed
In this quest, towards darkness
Black riders in the sky
I'm trapped in the eye
It's gaze is everywhere
It surrounds me
And I cannot believe
In all the things I've seen
This foe is way beyond
Any of us
And I cannot believe
In all the things I've seen




This foe is way beyond
Any of us
