Somewhere in the distance
A shimmering light
All my paths are converging
A sigh of respite
The forest receding
As all is made clear
But knowledge is fleeting
As are all you hold dear
In all journeys we have fallen
By the wayside
Words are misspoken, feelings all broken
Not by our side
Now through the burning come the down trodden
To cry for the last time
Give a listen, join us fallen
By the wayside
The quest for lost glories
The memories held dear
Twisted greed, struggles lost
The dawn will not appear
The fog is receding
Yet all is unclear
But glory is fleeting
Through ignorance comes fear
In all journeys we have fallen
By the wayside
Words are misspoken, feelings all broken
Not by our side
Now through the burning come the down trodden
To cry for the last time
Give a listen, join us fallen
By the wayside
By the wayside
By the wayside
Wasted days spent through preening
Yet beauty doth fade
Mental wit is impressive
But lost in later days
The shades they are lifted
As all is made clear
Time runs the swiftest
When squandered in fear
In all journeys we have fallen
By the wayside
Words are misspoken, feelings all broken
Not by our side
Now through the burning come the down trodden
To cry for the last time
Give a listen, join us fallen
By the wayside
By the wayside
