In my hands, I hold the ashes
In my veins, black pitch runs
In my chest, a fire catches
In my way, the setting sun
Dark clouds gather 'round me
Due northwest, the soul is bound
And I will go, on ahead free
There's a light yet to be found

The last pale light in the west
The last pale light in the west

And I ask for no redemption
In this cold and barren place
Still I see a faint reflection
And so by it, I got my way

The last pale light in the west
The last pale light in the west

    Such a gorgeous song, like many II discovered it through the Walking Dead, and am surprised that more folks haven't commented due to the excellence of the song and the power of the scene it was used in. Listening to Ben Nichols now too-showing much promise

    This song makes me want to just wander into oblivion and leave everything bad behind and find freedom somewhere else, the more desolate the better
