Helion Prime - The Forbidden Zone

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
