"This song symbolizes many different things for me. It symbolizes beauty and sorrow, life and death.
Ever since I was born, I have always felt lonely, that I don't belong in this world. I have also always appreciated the immense beauty that can be
found in melancholy. When I wrote this song I was heavily influenced and fascinated by the ancient belief that swans sing only once, a beautiful
song, just before they die. I myself have been lost most of my life, I haven't had much to say.
This song represents change to me. I have grown a lot since I wrote this song. I let my old self die, so I could be reborn. In a way, this is my swan song." ~ Drabbad

Lyrics:

Forlorn
Dancing alone on a desolate shore
Forsaken, like so many times before

Radient
Like a shimmering light
Spreads her snow-white wings so bright

Shining
Her feathers made of purest silk
Shrouded in mist, like a blanket of milk

Tired
Opened her beak to sing her throat sore
And sang like she had never sung before

Silence
A song of great knowedge and lore
She sang, and then she sang no more
