Weregild Lyrics

Voignamir, Voignamir
Say something for me, Voignamir
Say something for me, Voignamir

Werewolves, werewolves
Skies will brighten
Werewolves, werewolves
Skies will brighten
Brighten, brighten
Brighten, brighten

I-I'm on my way of the day
And I know
And I howl
And I prey
I-I'm on my way of the day
And I fall
And I'm on
And I pray

I was light and the sky
Was bright at night (All the way)
I was light and the sky (I can see space on the radio)
I was light and the sky
Was bright at night (All the way)

Hold me 'cause I can't watch the day
(I can see space on the radio)
I was light and the sky
Was bright at night (All the way)
I was light and the sky (All again)
I was light and the sky
Was bright at night (All the way)
Hold me 'cause I can't watch the day

I know, I know
I know, I know
And I'm ready to play
I, I know
I, I know
And I'm ready to play
I, I know

I-I'm on my way of the day
And I hope
And I beg
And I pray

I-I'm on my way of the day
And I hope
And I beg
And I pray

I was light and the sky
Was bright at night (All the way)

Hold me 'cause I can't watch the day
I was light and the sky
Was bright at night (All the way)
Hold me 'cause I can't watch the day
I was light and the sky
Was bright at night (All the way)
Hold me cause I can't watch the day

I was light and the sky
Was bright at night (All the way)
Hold me 'cause I can't watch the day
Hold me 'cause I can't watch the day
Hold me 'cause I can't watch the day
Hold me 'cause I can't watch the day
Hold me 'cause I can't watch the day
Hold me 'cause I can't watch the day
