Welcome to the Island - The Darkest of The Hillside Thickets

I have nothing, nothing to give

And I have not a single reason left to live

I take a boat into the open sea

I am adrift, I am debris

I am lulled by the ocean’s rhythmic splash

When I’m beset by a tempest in a flash

My craft is rent, my fate is clear:

My body washed up here

What I was disappears

I see my future here

Time is clawing at my fate

There is no fauna, no sound of life;

The jungle’s darkness as oppressive as a vice

Upon the mountainside I find some human tracks

And when I hear the drums there is no turning back

Welcome to the island, welcome to the island

Welcome to the island, welcome to the island

Welcome to the island, welcome to the island

Welcome to the island, welcome to the island

What I was disappears

I see my future here

Time is clawing at my fate

What I was disappears

I see my future here

Time is clawing at my fate

They writhe around the fire as if a dying snake

Their flesh impaled, the mountain’s bloody thirst to slake

The altar glistens with the latest sacrifice

Before a toad-like idol with a thousand eyes

The native cries seem to feed the flame

Their eyeless faces turn to me and call my name

Curtains of smoke recede, reveal a blackened throne, and I—

I am home

What I was disappears

I see my future here

Time is clawing at my fate

What I was disappears

I see my future here

Time is clawing at my fate

Welcome to the island, welcome to the island
