lyrics
Landed, in this green field
show my face to the sun
landed, in this strange place
looking back, it feels so far
from the place from where I've come
Now my new life begins
the secret life of a king
who has fled far from home
take me north to the new
village where I'll make my mark
shaping minds, sweet young men,
brilliant shade, and a clear new start
Do they search and scour
this small world for me
my death is their singular task
those close to me hid the all signs
but it's only a matter of time
Safety, has a new face
sheltered from the sun
brilliance there awaits me
linger in the shade of your tongue
A handsome king in his prime, secrets kept close in his mind
lays the path for a grey, aging hero to write
at the end of his time, a work that will redeem
all the mundane detail of his common and routine life
Here, in a strange place
I know that you are near
beauty, a true friendship
waiting here, soon I’m there
just wait for me to arrive.
I'll feel in the night, you're working
I'll watch your every move, my dear
my land waiting to be discovered
and recreated by you
just invite me to share your table
I'll understand you like no one else
show me something, just tell me something
feel my chest fill with air, my heart rising to
meet you
We are strangers
all this will soon change
our lives, intertwining
come, let's meet our fate

I heard this song on welcome to nightvale years ago and only recently looked into the story behind this song. I sobbed listening to it for the first time after and the connection I feel to this song is unbelievable Asteraceae
What do I say? I love Amanda. She's inspirational, not just her music but her whole personality! This album is fun, serious, heartwarming and inspirational spacehawk.mp3
