The Edge of Dawn (From "Fire Emblem: Three Houses")

Reach for my hand
I'll soar away
Into the dawn, oh, I wish I could stay
Here in cherished halls
In peaceful days
I fear the edge of dawn
Knowing time betrays

Faint lights pass through colored glass
In this beloved place
Silver shines, the world dines
A smile on each face
As joy surrounds, comfort abounds
And I can feel I'm breaking free
For just this moment lost in time
I am finally me

Yet still I hide
Behind this mask that I have become
My blackened heart
Scorched by flames, a force I can't run from

As I live out each peaceful day
Deep in my soul, oh, I know I can't stay
So I wish I could hide away
Hold tight to what I love
Keep cruel fate at bay

As the rain falls on the path
I chase your shadow
I don't feel a single drop
Or the ground below
Then you turn to me and I
Stop before I know
And the lie upon my lips
I let it go

Cross my heart
Making vows I know will be betrayed
A sad girl's pleas
Live only for a breath and then they fade

Don't ever take back your kind hand
Lest precious love slip away like time's sand
Only we will know, all that was lost
Scars that we can't erase
Show us life's true cost

The blue moonlight
Cuts across our sight
As pure and clear as a ringing bell
Reaching for us in the night
As the wind calms my thoughts
I held strong on this terrace
I feel at peace
Carried away by the wind's song

Open the door and walk away
Never give in to the call of yesterday
Memories that made those days sublime
These ruined halls entomb
Stolen time

Reach for my hand, I'll soar away
Into the dawn, oh, I wish I could stay
Here in cherished halls
In peaceful days
I fear the edge of dawn
Knowing time betrays
