Rumors prevailing, Forgotten past Oh a wish in a little clearing in the woods, A nickel of a hope The signs were obvious, yet the song keep on straining But with all due time the four elements shattered Broken Harmony, Four elements scattered across the Earth Fire, ice, lightning and water. Two tried to forget, Another eased the sorrow And one would see it that as harmony broken, nothing could repair the long forgotten oath Fire and Ice's broken bond Shattered the earth as neither could forget Lightning had foretold all Warnings forgotten, as time does to all Yet water never failed to forget Always wary, yet never showing Harmony in balance, bonds yet strengthened All in one, shattered bit by bit Alas, waterβs song had failed Fire enraged, Ice sorrow Lightning bitter Water would assure that guilt of time would never cease.
