PENDRAGON Lyrics - Maria K. Glass / Music - Philip Wolfe

A young man pulled a sword from the stone
Soon that leads on a path to the throne
I’m tired of seeing death surrounding me
I’m off to a land of chivalry

They fight for a world that will never exist
In their code of honor they will persist

At their round table they will meet
Sharing the stories of their valor
Knights in their cages of steel
Are they drunk on their own power?

They fight for a world that will never exist
In their code of honor they will persist

I see a forbidden love they can’t help but consummate
The poison’s on the table, it will but contaminate
By those you’ve most trusted you have been betrayed
Can the code of honor really be saved?

They fight for a world that will never exist
In their code of honor they will persist

Pagan knights in an ever-changing world
Have seen how their lives are unfurled
Don’t bury me, burn me, just set me free

They fight for a world that will never exist
In their code of honor they will persist
To find the treasure they cannot resist
In their code of honor they will persist

The dark one watches my steps
I know I must beware
If you represent what heaven is
Prove you can take me there
