lyrics

Warm was the light in your eyes when we met
Now cold is the night I will never forget
This hut has gone silent since that autumn day
I left my belief and I threw you away
In this heart an emptiness grows
Can faith get us through this? We may never know
Clinging to legends and shallow belief
I lay my head down and I dream of relief.
The music has stopped and the players moved on
The voice that was singing is faded and gone
The forests and lakes are now spiritless holes
There’s no one left here. I will not be consoled
In these minds the memory is dead
Will no one remember the heroes who bled?
Festivals follow, for what we don’t know
There will be no harvest. We reap what we sow.
The one that I loved has since fled from my side
And the empty earth drank of the tears that I cried
the beauty is gone from the summer sunrise
I’ve watched the world wither so I’m closing my eyes.
In these souls the fear will remain
With all else forgotten my deeds were in vain.
I will still weep when I think on that day
When I burned the legends, the magic, away.
