LYRICS (please credit if using!)
Lonely the flute does sing
Long are the nights it brings
Paths made from right and wrong
When I wake, our dreams are all but gone

To the world, you wear your sins upon your sleeve
Bloodied blades grant your reprieve
Mountains and seas
Can you hear me?
The echoes of our song will never leave

And as we pass through life in joy and in pain
Watch the same moon wax and wane
Though the wind carries your wings far and wide
We sing under the same sky

Travel a thousand roads
End with the lives you’ve owed
Paths walked in right and wrong
In my dreams, where memories belong

To the world, you wear your sins upon your sleeve
Bloodied blades grant your reprieve
Mountains and seas
Do you hear me?
The echoes of your smile will never leave

So raise a glass to life and its joy and pain
Watch the moonlight wax and wane
Let us brave the storm with hope by our side
Singing our song to the sky

So raise a glass to life and its joy and pain
Let the moonlight pave the way
Won’t you walk the storm with your hand in mine?
Singing our song to the sky

Singing our song to the sky
Singing our song to the sky

Soooo I just finished watching The Untamed and BOI LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THIS SHOW. First of all, the music has no right to slap this hard. After hearing this song for 50 episodes (and losing a piece of my soul every time) I KNEW I had to give writing an English version a shot. I focused more on evoking the emotions and imagery of the original Chinese versus providing a literal translation. I hope you like what I've done!
