Listen & view Chronology - The Scriptorium lyrics & tabs

I’m so far from home*
The search goes on and on
The old man told me how to get here
Finally I arrived on a stormy night
I had to lie about myself
But they believed me and took me in their lives
But there’s something they try to hide
There’s no time to waste
I must investigate
No one knows my father’s name
He has never been in this monastery
The monks turned away when I asked about
The Guardians of Eternity
I feel they lie to me
But a few days ago
I saw a secret room
I want to know
Why didn’t they let me inside
I wonder what they try to hide
Shadows int he candle-light
Please, help me to hide away
God, hear me pray
Dark night, pouring rain
Blood boils in my veins
I climbed the wall, I broke the window
And now I’m here in this hidden place
A scriptorium, it’s full of treasures
Hopefully I’ll find the missing trace
A book behind locked doors
It’s just like mine
That’s what I saw
These two books almost look the same
I became a thief so I must run away
I found a map int he stolen one
It will show the way
God hear me pray
