Lost in Shadow

Turin sings of Níniel in a darkness made tender by ignorance, before love is broken by the truth of names.

The song stands in the suspended space where affection is real and catastrophe has not yet spoken aloud.

Lyrics Manuscript

[Verse] From afar I watched you all my days In secret I knew your face The blood of kings flows in our veins Dark is the night And colder grows my heart

[Chorus] I'm lost in shadow Lost in shadow Lost in shadow Lost in shadow [whispered vocals]

[Verse 2] Time has passed The morning never came The things we've done that never should be named A hand is laid upon me as I sing All of my songs are forgotten

[Chorus] Lost in shadow Lost in shadow Lost in shadow Lost in shadow [whispered vocals]

[Verse 3] I remember your name Lost in shadow I remember your name Lost in shadow

[Chorus] Lost in shadow Lost in shadow Lost in shadow Lost in shadow Lost in shadow Lost in shadow
