The Sound of a Glinting Blade

Lyrics

I heard the forest sing
 Songs of my youth
 I'd never felt such pain before
 You held my hand that day
 You were my sun before the dawn
 The darkened morning I have loved so long
 ♪
 I don't recall that day
 And I never thought of you when I cried
 You know the place (And I never wondered why)
 Where memory sleeps and secrets hide
 You left so suddenly
 ♪
 Silence fills this place
 Naught but a memory of your embrace
 You, servile and sweet
 Soft as the sediment beneath our feet
 Far beyond the trees
 We roamed
 Yet, now, I plead:
 Recall the plans we made
 Dreams once so bold
 The jealous sun stood still and cold
 What now has time revealed?
 A tepid pool of youth misspent
 A faded tapestry of dreams undreamt
 Strange, how you recount
 Wanton days, blissful nights
 Strange, as it seems
 There was suffering
 And pain you never knew
 How could you?
 Oh do not welcome death
 He offers no... offers no peace
 For even in death
 We will know, know the pains
 We'll know the pains we left behind
 Far beyond the trees
 I long to be
 A deeper stream flows endlessly (Free from)
 Your incessant dream (Toward my dream)
