The Forbidden Zone - Helion Prime

Bold am I

To make such a claim

That the lords of this world

Weren’t the first ones to reign

Dishonor the almighty ape

For the sake

Of a shadow of truth

I cannot disdain

Though I long to go and see

What lies beyond

Those barren mountains

Hiding on that shore

I refrain

My heretic mind

With this uneasy crime

Breeds the bane of all

Sacred recorded time

What weight can a scroll

Keep at bay for a doubter

Who frightens away

From a dawning light?

Never knowing why

The decline of a proud society

Secretly awaits in the Forbidden Zone

Don’t be afraid

Though you may not like what you see

It is your destiny

Now behold this man from the sky

With his eyes shining bright

Speaking words in our tongue

Reading words we write

If he holds the key

To the truth I seek

Do I condemn our beliefs

Or just let it be?

Is it worth the price to know?

The knowledge I must know

The truth will be revealed

In the Forbidden Zone
