King of the Forest Lyrics

Deep in the forest in the dead of the night
Hides a creature of legend far from human sight
Shadow of the redwood and the cloak of the rain
Walks a shambling monster that has no name
Of the primeval canopy of fog and tree
Avoiding all extinction by humanity
Many have tried to track the magic ape
But the forest king will always makes his escape
King of the forest
Lord of the night
Monarch of the endless wilds
Watching man from afar
At civilizations curtain call
The King shall rise again
