Otherland

There's another world.
I call it Otherland.
Oh, well, don't you think it's real?
You think I play pretend!

There's a friendly dragon on that hill,
And a beastly prince beyond.
Some elves are singing! Don't you hear?
There's kelpies in the pond.

I think I just saw a will-o-the-wisp!
There's magic near these parts.
And out of the forest, through the mist,
A gracious unicorn darts.

Beware this land, for all you see
Is only a facade.
What? You think all I'm going mad?
You think this land is odd?

Don't speak to me of crazy!
Go talk to the Lonesome Dwarf.
He can tell you all I say is true,
And he needs a companion other than his horse.

The Mythical Mountains high above,
The Lucid Lake below.
An adventure awaits us here!
Come on, now, don't be slow!

When we're done and the day is through,
We'll go back the way we came.
Through a land most rugged and desperate.
Reality is its name.
