Lyrics
Elegy for Hallownest
(Verse 1)
In wilds beyond, they whisper your name,
With reverence and regret, they acclaim,
None could tame our savage souls, it's true,
Yet you rose to the challenge, through and through.
Under the palest watch, you taught and changed,
Base instincts redeemed, rearranged,
A world bestowed to bug and beast,
Beyond their wildest dreams, you unleashed.
(Chorus)
Our cherished dreams, you did bestow,
Yet in dismay, you came to know,
Our desires had no bounds, no end in sight,
You gave your all, but still, we plight.
(Verse 2)
What cost to tame our savagery?
You gave your all, yet still we plea,
For more dreams, more wishes to fulfill,
Your energies spent, our hearts still chill.
Amongst us sprang a dreadful scourge,
Forcing back our aggressive urge,
Turning us to beasts, mere husks,
Souls consumed by light, above the dusk.
(Chorus)
Within your corpse, echoes remain,
The plaintiff cries of one in pain,
Who bore our burdens, our loss, our plight,
Into itself, it took our fight.
(Outro)
Through its agony, truth revealed,
In perfect emptiness, all is healed,
For nothing can contain such woe,
But emptiness, where dreams don't grow.
[End]
(Outro)
Through its agony, truth revealed,
In perfect emptiness, all is healed,
For nothing can contain such woe,
But emptiness, where dreams don't grow.
[End]
In wilds beyond, they whisper your name,

A world bestowed to bug and beast,
Beyond their wildest dreams, you unleashed.
(Chorus)
Our cherished dreams, you did bestow,
Yet in dismay, you came to know,
Our desires had no bounds, no end in sight,
You gave your all, but still, we plight.

In perfect emptiness, all is healed,
For nothing can contain such woe,
But emptiness, where dreams don't grow.
