The song beautifully intertwines themes of loyalty, loss, and the search for redemption.
Verse 1:
In shadows deep, where silence crept,
A guardian strong, her heart adept.
With emerald skin, and a heart of stone,
But guilt wrapped 'round, she stood alone.
Chorus:
Oh, Riala, my heart aches still,
In the halls of memory, your laughter spills.
Though my blade was true, fate’s cruel hand,
Took you from me, to a faraway land.
Verse 2:
The realm in chaos, the night so dark,
I swore to protect, the sacred mark.
But when the shadows danced and then withdrew,
I failed my promise; oh, how I rue.
Chorus:
Oh, Riala, my heart aches still,
In the halls of memory, your laughter spills.
Though my blade was true, fate’s cruel hand,
Took you from me, to a faraway land.
Bridge:
Now I stand before your tomb, so cold,
Whispers of regret, stories untold.
In the moonlit night, with a heavy heart,
I find the strength to let you depart.
Verse 3:
With flowers bright, I place them near,
Hoping you hear me, hoping you’re near.
For every tear that fell like rain,
Your spirit soars, and washes my pain.
Chorus:
Oh, Riala, my heart aches still,
In the halls of memory, your laughter spills.
Though my blade was true, fate’s cruel hand,
Took you from me, to a faraway land.
Outro:
In golden fields where you now sleep,
I find my solace, the secrets I keep.
As I lay my sorrows at your stone,
With every farewell, I’m finally home.
