Slechtvalk - Wandering Shadows lyrics

They stride forth slumbering, waiting for their d**hs to come What hope remained to them slowly faded away I remember the splendour, the towering halls of those once my kin I remember the maidens bright and fair I admired their wisdom, the strength of their arms, the glory of their king I admired the maidens bright and fair Though I departed to a distant realm unknown to me I felt inclined to return someday As shadows they wander, slowly dissolving into the mists Their beauty had faded, their strength had withered away All that my eyes could see was d**h standing in front of me So cold, so cold were their eyes to me What was left of their splendour, was all but an ancient memory No one to answer the children's cries I tried waking them from their lucid dreams, yet no one would heed the decay around them A man I woke answered my concern with a dagger between my ribs before returning to his dream The dread that filled me, was naught compared to what I witnessed then As I died, I saw a mist surround the man A laughter roared when he dissolved into the mist As shadows they wander, slowly dissolving into the mists Their beauty had faded, their strength had withered away
