Eluveitie
The Prodigal Ones
[Verse 1: Chrigel Glanzmann]
The stars no longer guide their flight
Shadows dance where light once reigned
Eyes that once revered the night
Now forsake the radiant dreams once dreamt

[Pre-Chorus: Chrigel Glanzmann]
Whispers fade on ancient winds
Tales once told now drift away
Children lost in nightfall's dim
Wander far from dawn's bright reign

[Chorus: Fabienne Erni, Chrigel Glanzmann]
For we are broken
Awoken at the demise of I
The forsaken
Children wandering astray

[Verse 2: Chrigel Glanzmann]
Forgotten songs, the silent hands
Echoes of the heart's demands
As twilight calls, the dark expands
Lost within forsaken lands

[Pre-Chorus: Chrigel Glanzmann]
Whispers fade on ancient winds
Tales once told now drift away
Children lost in nightfall's dim
Wander far from dawn's bright reign
[Chorus: Fabienne Erni, Chrigel Glanzmann]
For we are broken
Awoken at the demise of I
The forsaken
Children wandering astray
We are broken
Blessed in the nameless' eye
The foretoken
The return of the prodigal ones

[Bridge: Chrigel Glanzmann]
Rattling voices linger in the haze
Erstwhile bright flames now dimmed and cold
Souls stray through the darkened days
Lost within the words untold
The orphans of a desolate world disowned

[Guitar Solo: Jonas Wolf]

[Breakdown: Chrigel Glanzmann]
Broken
Foretoken

[Chorus: Fabienne Erni, Chrigel Glanzmann]
For we are broken
Awoken at the demise of I
The forsaken
Children wandering astray
We are broken
Blessed by the nameless' eye
The foretoken
The return of the prodigal ones
