Hiraeth
Lyrics
As my home burned to ash
And the flames claimed that silenced grove
The wind was dry, under the crackling sky
The day I lost my place in this world
We walked the four corners
Weaving dreams alive
Creating war and love and magic
Stories untied
Your amethyst eyes, pleading belle cries
Drew me into your tranquil realm, of violet skies
Let me stay for a while
Let me feel the warmth
Shadows have come now
With fire, through branches
Like arrows, piercing my soul
I'm fleeing them ghosts
Of unborn nightmarish truths
I shall stay no more, stay no more
I shall seek my home, now
Nothing awaits me, and still I return
to the same old place
Peace has eluded my path
For far too long
Nothing awaits me, and still I return
to the same old place
Peace has always eluded my path
Its absence may cost me my grace
What I desire most
That which I've loved and lost
To be embraced once more
By you
Night sky with countless stars
Leaving behind our scars
Ethereal moments of bliss
Abidingly I must leave
As blood will have its way
Accursed as it may be
Perhaps my fate
Is to never find a home
Perhaps there was never one
To be gone
As my home burned to ash
And the flames claimed that silenced grove
The wind was dry, under the crackling sky
The day I lost my place in this world
We walked the four corners
Weaving dreams alive
Creating war and love and magic
Stories untied
Your amethyst eyes, pleading belle cries
Drew me into your tranquil realm, of violet skies
Let me stay for a while
Let me feel the warmth
Shadows have come now
With fire, through branches
Like arrows, piercing my soul
I'm fleeing them ghosts
Of unborn nightmarish truths
I shall stay no more, stay no more
I shall seek my home, now
Nothing awaits me, and still I return
to the same old place
Peace has eluded my path
For far too long
Nothing awaits me, and still I return
to the same old place
Peace has always eluded my path
Its absence may cost me my grace
What I desire most
That which I've loved and lost
To be embraced once more
By you
Night sky with countless stars
Leaving behind our scars
Ethereal moments of bliss
Abidingly I must leave
As blood will have its way
Accursed as it may be
Perhaps my fate
Is to never find a home
Perhaps there was never one
To be gone
