A fabled city
The knowledge of the ages
That legendary grail
A wall the schemers are trying desperately to scale

Notify the wicked and the scared
The evious and the greedy
No entry
Through guardian or progeny
Not today
Not yesterday
Not ever
Let them reap what they so pompously sowed
The city is closed

Between them and knowing
The hunter's blade
Between them and freedom
An army of unholy red
Let the liars reap what they so joyously sowed
The city is closed

Pristine pitch black sand
A bird on song 
Faces on a tree
Lillies in the valley
Some things will never be
Let them reap what they so callously sowed
For the underserving 
The city will always be closed
