lyrics

lost in the woods
oh where to go?
two travelers, the beaten path is gone
just a wall of evergreen
oh where to go?

but there's an opening, a clearing, and to their astonished eyes
a sage sat amid a sea of candlewick aflame meditating
they whirled around in fear
to see the door had disappeared
opened his old wise eyes
my peace was agonized
there's a price that must be paid, you shouldn't have crossed me
but i'll give you a chance
solve this riddle and you'll leave without a glance
and you'll be on your way

can't run or hide

threatened by a daunting mystery
what could it be?
two travelers in frantic desperation
sparks crackle in his hands
what could it be?

his patience runs thin
eyes narrow
sky is boiling
irritation instills terror

sparks fly
lightning in the sky
fire burning blue
i don't know what to do
