Fountain of Youth by Ethnocide Lyrics
They came on ships from foreign shores
In search of gold and glory
They came to the land with an iron hand
To claim new territory
Darkness and death is all they left
In the jungle deep within
So the darkness grew on what it knew
On bodies of the fallen men
Going through the darkness
Lost without direction
Gritted teeth in the scorching heat
Spreading foreign subjection
Trudge and try they fall and die
Searching for the truth
But in the end
They cannot mend
Their lust for the fountain of youth
The search for living water
Led many men astray
Trudge and trod
They found it odd
They never found their way
Lives were lost
For that is the cost
Of searching for such a treasure
The fountain of youth
With all its truth
Was lost to the darkness forever
Going through the darkness
Lost without direction
Gritted teeth in the scorching heat
Spreading foreign subjection
Trudge and try they fall and die
Searching for the truth
But in the end
They cannot mend
Their lust for the fountain of youth
In search of gold and glory
They came to the land with an iron hand
To claim new territory
Darkness and death is all they left
In the jungle deep within
So the darkness grew on what it knew
On bodies of the fallen men
Going through the darkness
Lost without direction
Gritted teeth in the scorching heat
Spreading foreign subjection
Trudge and try they fall and die
Searching for the truth
But in the end
They cannot mend
Their lust for the fountain of youth
The search for living water
Led many men astray
Trudge and trod
They found it odd
They never found their way
Lives were lost
For that is the cost
Of searching for such a treasure
The fountain of youth
With all its truth
Was lost to the darkness forever
Going through the darkness
Lost without direction
Gritted teeth in the scorching heat
Spreading foreign subjection
Trudge and try they fall and die
Searching for the truth
But in the end
They cannot mend
Their lust for the fountain of youth
