Autumnal Lament Lyrics

Let pass and fade her vernal hues that once quelled my life’s despair
Only shades remain now lingering on a fell air, an empty fell air
Waning within her thoughts. I betrayed, my misdeeds, my shame
As these leaves, shall I wither the same and fall within an eternity

Apathetic stars mill in their spheres. An overture to the bleak
Waking to this silent discord and an autumn chill of disparity

Shadows stirring in her wake apprise me she is well
I bide this austere flower. A forlorn wind doth sunder to bone

Beneath a dark uncaring sky, I watched her close for her eyes to bespeak
A telling sign that her soul doth not seek another’s comfort, beyond my heart’s reach

That night I died. She was my light, my Luna. Like I was the sun, away in flight fled Luna
My skies now bare. Far from my sight, crying Luna. Forever gone. Black empty night. I lost Luna

The night falls with one breath and delivers me to the cold, to her cold

Shadows stirring in her wake apprise me she is well
I bide this austere flower. A forlorn heart doth sunder and fall away
