Pyre of the Saints
My notebooks wouldn't hold this song
They say farewells are sick and wrong
It's see you later, not goodbye
So lose your clock and don't you cry
Weep not upon the stars, my love
Lest their light be doused
And mourn not for a living ghost
My flame's not flickered out
Every path I led you down
Is overgrown and can't be found
And every bridge I made you cross
Is burning to the oceans, lost
But not Choice's hand bears the flame
Nor mercilessly hides the rain
And Free Will has lost her footing now
Off the bridge and starts to drown
But weep not upon the stars, my love
Lest their light be doused
And mourn not for a living ghost
My flame's not flickered out
The mob of Tears is torching town
And burning Hope's house to the ground
But Love survives its deadly fire
She leaves the trace of her own pyre
We swore no remorse, no turning back
So Follow the shimmer of Love's left path
A trail left behind of Memories
Breadcrumbs that will never leave
Weep not upon the stars, my love
Lest their light be doused
And mourn not for a living ghost
My flame's not flickered out
Betrayal and Hate, they dance with glee
As Time ticks by reluctantly
And the Reaper's got too much of shame
To take his dice from Love away
His scythe will never touch her flesh
The sand will never break her glass
And Tears will never pierce her skin
Nor will Hate find its way in
So weep not upon the stars, my love
Lest their light be doused
And mourn not for my living ghost
Our flame's not flickered out
My last breath would be a lullaby
Singing you to sleep
My last touch would be against your skin
To dry up your wet cheeks
No, Weep not upon the stars, my love
For Love is never doused
And mourn not for her living ghost
For Love won't flicker out
Love is of the greatest Saints
She overcomes both Grief and Hate
No brighter any star may shine
Than my love for you within the sky
So count the stars and make a wish
Slip to sleep and dream in bliss
And listen to my lullaby
Sleep tight, darling, don't you cry
