about

Arthur tells of the quest for the grail to his knights and loyalists. The knights are willing to make the sacrifice to restore Arthur as king. Gawain, Arthur's most trusted knight, beckons Arthur not to go with them, for it would be too dangerous. Arthur agrees and the knights stand by the their true king, awaiting departure for the Deathland Caves.

lyrics

Arthur:

I gather all of you here today
To speak of a quest that’s for the land
We must journey deep into the Deathland Caves
In search of the sacred relic of man

If I drink from the cup, I’ll pull Excalibur from the stone
Take back our kingdom, our original home, we must go

To reclaim the throne
Bring Excalibur home
Fill the kingdom with hope
For a new king will rise and the seeds of the free will be sown

Gawain:

I speak for the knights and we are on your side
But I’m afraid we’ll have to leave you behind
It’s too dangerous for you to go with us my king
We will go to the caves, and the chalice back we’ll bring

Arthur:

Thank you my son, my life is in your hands
Your quest to the caves, will save all of the land, you must go

To reclaim the throne
Bring Excalibur home
Fill the kingdom with hope
For a new king will rise and the seeds of the free will be sown

Arthur and Knights:

To reclaim the throne
Bring Excalibur home
Fill the kingdom with hope
To the caves we will go so the seeds of the free can be sown
