Fornost Arnor - If The Trees Could Only Speak... Lyrics

Deep in the forests, where the trees grow so high
In a godless World, I am free to think
If only they could tell me how I'm meant to live
Amongst such simple beings
How can you believe one God made us all?
I look up at their beauty, and believe in them

They grow high, to fall to the ground
They know why we are here, can they help us see

They grow high, to fall to the ground
They are the air we breathe, but we fail to see that!

'Cos you can only see a God in the sky
Looking at life from above
The trees, the greatest life form on Earth
Their roots are driven into Hell
Is that a sin that Christ forgot to preach?

Hack them all down
Silence the witness who will destroy your lies

A heretic for ever questioning why
For questioning how I came to exist
Without a God by my side
With a free thinking mind
She taught me to think she taught me how to love
Though I could not see this at the time

They grow old silently
They know why we're here, but fail to speak
They grow old silently and die

I live in a world without a God
But you can only see the Devil in me
Crossing fiction with reality

I don't fear you, or your God
You will only see the Devil in my eyes
And I'll be laughing when the truth is told
And the trees become your world

If the trees could only speak... you wouldn't believe in God!
