Lyrics
All I ever longed for was a world where I belonged And someone with a smile like yours to share it Though once I could have simply sat and watched the world burn When we first met, with you, I knew I'd bear it For a thousand years the changelings in your cradles have been placed For a thousand years they do the tasks all gave them For a thousand years they carve their sigils in the city's bones And for a thousand years the fae watch and are waiting And you knew I was different, never fit right in the world And I knew you were wistful, and elated Together then we spun and wove a story of our own And for a while we lived in adoration For a thousand years the infants have been softly whisked away And babes like me are put there as replacements And onto me it falls the task to carve the very last Sigil that will cause the city's desolation All I ever longed for was a world where I belonged And someone with a smile like yours to share it Together we were fairytales, and poetry and wine Until you slept with him and I can just not bear it... I would have saved the world for you, I would have let it go I would have kept your heart, so sweet, protected Instead I wonder whether I should carve the final mark And all that we have loved, it will be ended All I ever longed for was a world where I belonged And someone with a smile like yours, to share it And I can never not love you so deep with all my heart But this love for you at last, I cannot bear it The fall of the human city of Victoria was the saddest day in its residents' history. As if some arcane b***on had been pressed, almost overnight, it simply faded away, replaced by a Strange and perplexing place, its denizens would refer to as Avalon
