1. FAREWELL

Farewell to you, farewell to autumn, farewell to daylight
This earth is stained with my presence

This is the end, though not by choice,
I am leaving as the bleakness of winter arrives

Farewell to the flaring skyline, farewell to the withered leaves, farewell to the weathered silhouettes of the trees
My essence will fade to mist

This is the end, though not by choice,
I am leaving as the bleakness of winter arrives

Time passes swiftly, soon I will be gone,
But do not mourn me, for I shall return again

Farewell to you, farewell to summer,
Farewell to the leaves on the trees
I have returned again


2. FORSAKEN LANDSCAPES

The snowfall over the forsaken landscapes
Silently fell amongst the trees

In desolation the skyline looks down on
A land lost in time

The oaks stood grand in their disposition
A pathway shrouded in snow

...And hidden in this vast wilderness
Monuments of stone

The pillars of the forgotten
The tomb of many spirits left behind

I was abandoned
Left in this cold silence
Alone but the crows who have died
The spirit of this forest will live forever

Forlorn are these landscapes
Infinte silence

This sacred circle on which the druids went
To communicate to immortal souls

Family and deities are all alive
In the spirit world, bound by death

The druids passed into this world
Reunited with friends and allies

...And the secret fell into oblivion
Never to be found

The pillars of the forgotten
The realm of many spirits for eternity

Forlorn are these landscapes
Infinte silence
Echoes from the otherworld
Now unheard by this earth

4. NOSTALGIA

Longing I sat in solitude
My tears fell like rain to the ground
For I can not atone my mistakes
I can not atone this loss

This silence deafens me
This emptiness engulfs me

Here I walk amongst the falling snow
Walking the same old path again
A path now full of hollow memories

Our footprints are now buried deep
Lost beneath the snow
I can not atone this loss

Nostalgia for winter
Walking in the cold
Nostalgia for winter
Walking in the dark

Isolated I walk
Under the night sky
Searching for comfort in nature
Searching for a new path

It felt like the flame would never die
But I knew that it would
The scent takes me back
The present is the past you'll miss tomorrow


5. LIKE RAIN TO THE GROUND
