Twilight Testament - The Escape Lyrics

Underneath the moon's silver hue
Silent whispers shadows pursue
Phineas guides with lantern low
Through woods where the wild winds blow

Hooves thunder and hearts pound
The night's cloak is our battleground
In the distance danger looms
Our path lit by the stars' silent boons

Hooves thunder hearts pound
In the night freedom is found

Run through the forest shadows in tow
Chasing the dawn where hope will grow
Stars above our silent guides
Strength in unity where love abides

George with eyes that burn like coal
Grips his fate his tethered soul
Eliza clings to hope so thin
A mother's love her strength within

Through valleys deep and ridges high
We race beneath a starlit sky
Each breath a pledge each step a vow
To break those chains that would bind us now

Hooves thunder hearts pound
In the night freedom is found

Run through the forest shadows in tow
Chasing the dawn where hope will grow
Stars above our silent guides
Strength in unity where love abides

Tom Loker's shadow a menacing blur
Charged at George with reckless spur
A gunshot splits the night in two
Loker falls his strength withdrew

Phineas saw they were safe and sound
Turned back to help where Loker was found
"Because after death comes the judgment"
It matters not the man's intent

Hooves thunder hearts pound
In the night freedom is found

Run through the forest shadows in tow
Chasing the dawn where hope will grow
Stars above our silent guides
Strength in unity where love abides

Across the rocks we fly with haste
Every moment a breathless chase
Dawn approach lightens our load
Our spirits lift a brighter road

Phineas returns with Loker in tow
A testament to mercy where compassion flows
But for us our path is clear
Together we'll reach Canada free from fear

Hold tight to the dream
Through darkness our spirits gleam
In the night we'll find our light
Freedom dawns within our sight
