Grief Unsung Lyrics


Between three heights

Firstborn of three nights

Was freed in sacrifice

On sleep of bone I fell

Wrapped in bark of nameless weald

Blind my sight with wealth

For wraiths my gaze beheld

On grey wood sheared

Black plated names

To shores of the dead

Light my sail aflame

Wash away the shrift

On lake of regret

And release me adrift

Neither moon nor sun

On house of the vanished one

We mourn in wordless tongue

We mouth the grief unsung

One gone forever will not grieve

One lost forever will not dream
