The Light in the Wake (Ayanda Song)

I walk an endless night I'm all alone holding onto those pieces of fading light The echoes call, but I stand still Reaching out with both hands for that distant hope with all of my will For stars that burn cold I'll fight with all my love If I fall ten thousand times I'll still try For that fleeting hope I'll say goodbye Their voices fade so ever slowly into the distance As they go faint, I can still hear all their cries With my trembling hands I have closed their eyes Death all around me, I make sure no tears fall Even now, after it all, I can't break After all, I chose this road to take Through all the agony, blood, sweat, tears, and pain I will continue to search for my own way A saviour's crown, this is the price I must pay, if even One single soul can survive this, then I'll know I've not lost Without an ounce of regret, I would give up my whole life no matter the cost I promised control but it all slipped right through my hands I'm drowning in flora I cannot even withstand Bow out of place, the strings are too tight, this curtain marks my final night Every piece of lies, forever trapped behind the end of time I walk an endless night I'm all alone holding onto those pieces of fading light The echoes call, but I stand still Reaching out with both hands for that distant hope with all of my will For stars that burn cold I'll fight with all my love Even now, watching the end drawing near I will leave this world without a tear
