My body lies
Still 'neath the weeping boughs
No wounds mark my flesh
No sickness sought my death

Years left me cold and hollow
A life of loss and sorrow

No will left to walk on
I give my life to the dying sun

No golden halls to welcome me home
Black silence is now all I know

Seasons long past deprived me, of all I loved
My torn homeland, left behind so long ago
My king and queen, long lost to the sea
My wife and child, slain before me

Alone in this winter, I stood the last
The last of my kin
None now left, now I am gone
None now live to remember our fall

Memories fading
Darkness encroaching
My skin cold, my eyes closed
My grief laid to rest

No golden halls to welcome me home
Black silence is now all I know
