Veil of Winter
Beneath Winter's Veil: A Solitary Journey in Melancholy
Lyrics
Far from home and out here
Expressing being far from home and feeling isolated.
In the night's grasp I am alone
Feeling alone within the grasp of the night.
I am lost to the waves of aurora
Feeling lost amidst the captivating waves of the aurora.
Dreaming away in sorrow
Dreaming with a sense of sorrow and melancholy.
And upon the graves I keep vigil
Keeping vigil over graves, possibly reflecting on the past.
Still wishing, still dreaming
Expressing persistent desires and dreams.
Sleeping beneath the veil of winter
Sleeping metaphorically under the cold and isolating "veil of winter."
A lonesome smile for the world
Wearing a lonely smile for the world, suggesting a facade of happiness.
Breach the ice of my soul
Desiring to break through the emotional barriers ("ice") within.
Tell the moon of my name
Yearning to share one's identity with the moon, perhaps seeking recognition.
Write the words upon the snow
Symbolically inscribing words on the snow, leaving a mark on the world.
And temper the wind in my heart
Seeking emotional resilience and strength against challenges ("temper the wind in my heart").
The days are gone now
Reflecting on the passage of time, indicating a sense of loss.
Since the seasons
Noting the end of seasons and the absence of joyous laughter.
Of sweet laughter died
Expressing a feeling of being lost and in search of something.
For I am lost and reaching
Reaching out for support or meaning.
Lend the me the voice to speak
Requesting a voice to articulate feelings and thoughts.
And banish the ghosts of the past
Desiring to overcome and move beyond haunting memories of the past.
Sleep now beneath the veil of winter
Symbolically sleeping beneath the metaphorical cold and isolating "veil of winter."
A lonesome smile for the world
Wearing a lonely smile for the world, reiterating a sense of solitude.
Walk with me upon the mountain high
Inviting someone to accompany on a challenging journey ("mountain high").
And I will promise you the sun
Promising brightness and positivity ("the sun") to someone who walks alongside.
