The Alchemist - Ten

Like a satellite breaking orbit to the sun

So another day is over and the light has just begun

For in his timeless eyes there is so much to be done

When the past is just a memory and the future’s yet to come

His castle on the mountain shades the land below

And no-one dares to doubt him

For not so long ago

The alchemist looked down from towers above this town

He summoned forth the lighting, brought it crashing to the ground

The power in his hands cast shadow on this land

Earth, water, fire and air succumb and bow to his command

Old Malachi stands the last in line

The secrets with him die

He lives his life protecting what he can

An honest man

He shines a brighter light than you’ve ever known before

He protected us for centuries

Delivered us from war

Because of Malachi there’s a haven from the storm

There’s a place we can discover what the future has in store

But such fear surrounds the fortress

That no-one ever goes

For there you’ll find the sorcerer the centuries have known

The alchemist looked down from towers above this town

He summoned forth the lighting, brought it crashing to the ground

The power in his hands cast shadow on this land

Earth, water, fire and air succumb and bow to his command

Old Malachi stands the last in line

The secrets with him die

He lives his life protecting what he can

An honest man
