Second lyric set.
MY (third) FAVOURITE MAPLE MUSIC EVERRRRRRREEEEE!!!
This definitely reads better as a poem, but try listening with the music too. It's called WhereverYouAre on various sites, and TheClocktower on TheJasonEffect.
(This is actually impossible to sing, especially the first eight lines.)
. Wherever You Are .
When did I fade form existence?
When, my being lose subsistence?
I still long for true, real living
Not a dream so unforgiving
I am lost from rhyme, from reason
Weathered through each sunless season
Seasons of a different world, a
Different place where I am nothing
-
Lost in starlight
In a world under the dark
Lingering in memory, a smile
Fading…
A thought I'll never forget
Alone beside the spirits
Alone I think of you, of
Someplace far
Where I once
Could roam free, laughing
-
Memories the same
Only these remain
Far beyond Time's relentless scour
In the dark oblivion
-
Drawn apart by fate
Standing at the gate
My mind will follow you afar
To wherever you are
No matter where you are
Though I'm trapped, a mere torn spirit
Deep in time, can you still feel it?
I remember…
-
Time is ticking, time is flowing,
Faster, swifter than our knowing
How long was it since our last day
Sitting in a glorious sunray
Sands are trickling through the neck, the
Moment was some decades back, a
Wound from turnings of the wheel, a
Wound that time will never heal—though
We're on two coasts of an ocean
Hold to hope, your destination
-
So blurred, these memories!
I'll hold on, even through
A million nights
Till the end of
Time!
-
Every road you take,
Every move you make there
I will hold that smile in memory
I'm less than air,
But I don't care
No matter where
-
No matter what I am
(A brush of air?)
No matter where you are
I'll think of you, of the world
Of distant dreams
Of all that seems
-
I'll dream wherever you may be
I'll dream wherever you are now
I'll dream of times I'll never see
I'll dream it all, some way, somehow…
BTW random spoiler. My entry to CrapPishh's fanfic challenge will be along the lines of this song--except that it'll be more human and down-to-earth. I'm also entering Song of the Sea, edited :D
