The Wise Man’s Fear
The Tree of Life
[Intro: Tyler Eads]
Pull me in, I've seen the sights that stirred
The old men to greatness
The water, it moves with mirth
And trembles in distress
[Verse 1: Joseph Sammuels]
A voice tells of something that has stood the test of time
An enchanting unwinding
The meeting mark of new memory
And the things that have always stood there
[Chorus: Tyler Eads]
Keeper of keys that's resting deep
Beneath the mountainside
[Verse 2: Joseph Sammuels & Tyler Eads]
It is from here that if you still your mind
You can catch a glimpse
Of the fragments fallen from cornerstones
Of the world
And if you listen closely
You'll hear a story that's old as time
[Chorus: Tyler Eads & Joseph Sammuels]
Keeper of keys that’s resting deep
Beneath the mountainside (Mountainside)
Watching the well and time will tell
If this is your demise
[Bridge: Joseph Sammuels]
A holy man once said to me
That the light dies in the depths of the ground
And if you stand there and keep your eyes closed
You can see the darkness as it comes to life (Comes to life)
[Chorus: Tyler Eads]
Keeper of keys that’s resting deep
Beneath the mountainside
Watching the well and time will tell
If this is your demise
If this is your demise
If this is your demise
