Lyrics
Our ancient world seemed
Newborn in his eyes
No place could keep him
He yearned for the skies
He abandoned the way
That Malphas foresaw
He followed a path of his own
And he strayed in the void
As a Wayward Wanderer
Despising the Path
That was meant just for him
Yet the dreams that he sought
In the deep red afterglow
Were as distant as ever before
He did find a home
In the city below
Where life neither purpose
Nor honor can hold
The woman who loved him
Held out her heart
And her suffering tore it apart
Cause he strayed in the void
As a Wayward Wanderer
Despising the Path
That was meant just for him
Yet the dreams that he sought
In the deep red afterglow
Were as distant as ever before
Our ancient world seemed
As old as his eyes
He had lived his whole life under empty skies
When a little boy asked him
For the guiding Path
He said "Do not risk Malphas' wrath!"
"Cause you'll stray in the void
As a Wayward Wanderer
Despising the Path
That is meant just for you
Yet the dreams that you seek
In the deep red afterglow
Are as distant as they'll ever be."
