The Wilderness Lyrics - Agalloch

It was when I realized 

that life has no meaning 

no purpose, no quarry 

...no answeres... 

And all the dreary night 

that had befallen across 

the land 

I slipped into a revery 

a web of human hand 

You longed to soar up high 

to caress the silky winds 

to embrace and kiss as lovers 

...the ether... 

but fate with cursed hand 

has struck wretch apon your head 

this wretch has been the day 

you were born (human) 

I live my life alone 

and all it's misery 

until the day I turn to stone 

I shall die alone 

among the wilderness 

It was when I realized 

apon my waking eyes 

no nightmare of mankind 

can harm me... 

I live my life alone 

among the wilderness 

until the day i turn to stone 

Life is but a dream 

among the wilderness 

...I spread my golden wings 

set sail my weightless form 

and soar into the cosmos 

...Forevermore...
