Adventure, Wander, Dreams

Peaceful and Free

When this day turns dark
And our hope turns cold,
On an endless journey we must embark
And the night we must hold
And hear the last song of the lark.

This is the last sun we'll see
Before the light leaves my sight
And internal darkness takes me.
I will fight with all my might
So I can see this realm be free.

I will not fall before the end
Nor fall before they let me be.
I cannot die before I see my friend
Then I will let death take me.
For i stood proud and did defend.

Death is young and I am old.
He just leads me down a new road.
I have seen the days turn cold
And now feel free of a load.
My life is now in Death's tight hold.

Do not morn for my life, my soul or me.
I have lived for this peaceful sleep.
I have traveled from plain to sea
And have fought all of those who creep.
I am now peaceful and now am free.
