The Wasteland of Mist

Always remember the times we spent
Sometimes, the past is best left unsaid
Always remember to accept we are sinners and need to repent
Just know the future is way up ahead

The wasteland of mist, the wasteland of mist is dreamily swaying
It’s giving me a feeling that I don’t want to miss...sweetly surrendering
I don’t miss the feeling of wistfulness
But, I go back to the desert of happiness
I don’t want to miss your lovely, gracious grimace
I don’t want to feel your love that hurts the most
I don’t want to kiss your lips of grieving foolishness
Just know that I’ll always love you beyond the coast
Beyond the coast
Beyond the coast
In the wasteland of mist
In the wasteland of mist

Wasteland...wasteland...wasteland...
Where we both stand...still...
And do as we will...will...will...
Now, I understand we’re in good hands
In the land of liberating longevity
In the land of a calm-spirited reality

Always remember the times we spent
Sometimes, the past is best left unsaid
Always remember to accept we are sinners and need to repent
Just know the future is way up ahead
Always remember the times we spent
Sometimes, the past is best left unsaid
Always remember to accept we are sinners and need to repent
Just know the future is way up ahead

The wasteland of mist, the wasteland of mist is dreamily swaying
It’s giving me a feeling that I don’t want to miss...sweetly surrendering
I don’t miss the feeling of wistfulness
But, I go back to the desert of happiness
I don’t want to miss your lovely, gracious grimace
I don’t want to feel your love that hurts the most
I don’t want to kiss your lips of grieving foolishness
Just know that I’ll always love you beyond the coast
Beyond the coast
Beyond the coast
In the wasteland of mist
In the wasteland of mist

Wasteland...wasteland...wasteland...
Where we both stand...still...
And do as we will...will...will...
Now, I understand we’re in good hands
In the land of liberating longevity
In the land of a calm-spirited reality

We’re wasting away
In the sunlit rays of today
I pray you won’t fade
Into the mist of yesterday
We’re wasting away
In the moonlit grays of tomorrow
Always remember, I pray,
You’ll accept your future with me...
Your future with me with no dismay or sorrow...
Hmmmm
Mmmm
Hmmmm
Ooooh

Always remember the times we spent
Sometimes, the past makes us feel dread
Instead, embrace the wasteland of mist
The wasteland of mist
The wasteland of mist
Is caressing the atmosphere
Without a shedding tear of fear
The mist of wasted-away wistfulness we won’t miss
If only we’d share this kiss...
Remember me...
I mourn bitterly in apprehension
Always remember me
Rise in the mist of pure ascension

Always remember me...
I whisper steadily in the mist
