Hadwynn - So Long (The King)

So long
The boy I was now don't belong
I've worked so hard, is this all I have to show?
Last night I had a dream
Where I crossed to the other side and met death's king
(And he asked: Son, what do you want? How far can you see?
I didn't know, I couldn't see a thing)

These scars, like stones, out of place
These scars, like stones, seem a waste
He broke my bones, but I was far from home

After a while in the dark, my eyes grew clearer
And I saw a dead man, no longer dead, coming nearer
The song I heard him sing was too familiar
All too familiar

These scars, like stones, out of place
These scars, like stones, seem a waste
He broke my bones

(We'll sing along)
One day, we'll see a king in his chair
With all his children standing there
Singing songs they somehow know
That they've known from the beginning
We'll sing along
These songs that they know, you've known from the beginning
And all my scars, like stones, will form a building
