Bright banners fluttered high in the warm summer breeze guards in armor bright do walk the battlements high no travelers pass in through the gate the portcullus is down barring the way not long the journey we had been on nor far the travels away from our home yet when we left no one barred the way all then were welcome to freely come we hail the watchmen in the towers gate bid that they would unbar the way cold is the look that we do see they answered no you do not belong all who are welcome are gathered within those who we summoned our already within the gates will not open to you ever again go on your way be gone from here turning we ride away from our home not understanding just what did change that we’re not welcome here in our home the gates are barred and we’re sent away and darkness falls as we right away and all our hopes do fade away we feel lost at be cast out now we are rejected and know not why warm summer days have now turn cold and days of spring are for ever gone darkness deep now lies in our heart now as our home is forever lost
