lyrics
The Tempting Distance
Trust in our force,
We've reached what we dared
We have found what we sought
The power lies in our hands
- use it now
There're still people starving
and dying in vain
Our help is in great demand
Their need is urging us to go on
'cause what we've gained
Is nowhere near enough
What’s next?
I say we take the royal frigate and sail along the stream
To free the needy people and find our destiny
Fall prey to the temptation,
All set to cross this land
Now raise the raven banner
And gather every man
Come, follow me
I'll show you this new way
This new goal to aim
rely on your kinsman
There is no doubt:
This land needs no king,
needs no throne or command
Their reign only harmed our people
Their need is urging us to go on
'cause what we've gained
Is nowhere near enough
What’s Next?
I say we take the royal frigate and sail along the stream
To free the needy people and find our destiny
Fall prey to the temptation,
All set to cross this land
Now raise the raven banner
I count on every man
Taking and raiding, invading
this land from below, now to cast off the yoke
facing and claiming, defying
our fortune, show what we are capable of
Sweep through the dales like a promising storm
wrecking all trails of this monarchy
The river will take us to places where we
have to reverse this dire tragedy
Maybe you’re right and we're foredoomed to fail
But if we are to turn back the greed we'll be immortal
Their need is urging us to go on
'cause what we've gained
Is nowhere near enough
What’s Next?
I say we take the royal frigate and sail along the stream
To free the needy people and find our destiny
Fall prey to the temptation,
All set to cross this land
Now raise the raven banner
We’re off to the unknown
Now raise the raven banner
We’re off to the unknown

If I was to ride Falcor in The Neverending Story, this would be my soundtrack for it. The guitar/keyboard duels are to die for. A bit corny? Maybe. Fun to listen to? Absolutely!
If you're into Fantasy Power Metal à la Twilight Force, Dragonland and Fellowship you have to go on this journey! One of my favorite releases of 2023 🧙✨🐉 Roland
