Through the dawning age We go walking together Toward the yawning grave Burning days as we make our way We'll leave our bones in the dust An untold legend is lighting up
What if I was the last sight you ever saw, Would you die with a smile on your face Well don't even try to say you will, Because you'd hardly recognize the sight The young are getting old and the summer is cold, All the birds have been singing at night
When we're dead and gone, Will the mountains remember, Or just carry on Moving as slow as the forest grows And turn our bones into dust, An untold legend is lighting up
When will I reach that light that I'm running to, When I die, Will it turn out forever There's a fire burning inside of me, When I die, Will I burn out forever
You don't need to lie, I know it will Because the darkness doesn't need the light All the young are getting old and the summer is cold, And all the birds have been singing at night
Well, don't even try to save me, friend, 'Cause I know it ain't worth the fight. All the young are getting old and the summer is cold, And all the birds have been singing at night.
