about

...in which Forest Boy, having garnered wisdom from the Tree of Life, knows now that the Druid is the answer to his life, but the answer requires a sacrificial killing of the Druid, acquiring his soul, initiating Forest Boy as the Druid

lyrics

The Druid of the Wood
knows the answer to life
deep in side his wood
surrounded by light

In the midst of this wood
the Druid's Grove there lies
a sacred place of old
seen only by a few eyes

Do you think you could
avoid his eyes so white
Do you think you would
withstand his glare so bright

If you think you should
know the answer to life
enter this sacred wood
in darkest dead of night

Not even moonlight should
shine on this blackish night
Find the Druid of the Wood
sleeping on a bed of light

The Druid of the Wood
Knows he must sacrifice
His life for the greater good
And release his breath this night

His soul is in these woods
The trees, the land, all life
To save this world he should
Let the child take his light

If you think you could
Fulfill what’s prophesied
Break not a twig of wood
Near where the Druid lies

With stake of sharp deadwood
Perform this sacred rite
Thrust the holy rood
Into his throat forthright

Bleed dry the Druid’s blood
And see his dimming light
Depart his lifeless bod
Encircling you aright

His soul now enters you
illuminate pure light
The grove in this wood
Your home for all of time

You’re the Druid of the Wood
The answer to your life
Your soul is now the root
Of all that lives in sight

The Druid of the Wood
knows the answer to life
deep inside his wood
surrounded by light
