More song lyrics

What would be a song about a traveler or soldier of some sort who lived, who's ready to die.

"I" in this poem is a star.

===

Travel along the lighted path

Only to find you've lost nothing

Instead you've gained more than I could ever hope to

And you find you've become happy

Expel the darkness that you're handed

And live as if you'll never die

Yet you search on and on for your journey's just started

Looking for a jewel called me

Such a treasure you'd hope to attain

Such a gift you've gained all the same

Fighting on to live through the pain

And never complaining to live on again

Along your travels you found a star

Bigger and brighter than you've ever seen

Finding among those that had fallen here

Really, all you've found was me

A simple "thank you" to you

And a simple "regards" from me

For I am but a rock in this sea of nothingness

And yet you wish to me to be free

I can't give you freedom

Though I wish I could try

What I can do is give you hope

And hope you'll live on

For I've seen those who lay

Slain here, over many years

Many millennia passed without thought

And I can only hope you'll live on

Live on, again, for those who've gone

For those who've left you alone

Live on, again, to prove your worth some

And then you'll leave on your own

You live and you live

You'll fight and you'll give

Full of hope, you will live

And you'll die one day too

But you've time to live

Yet you're tired of living

You've lived much longer

And you've outlived your comrades

And you're ready to go

Travel along a lighted path

There you'll meet me once, twice

You place a wish among my light

And I finally grant it when you die
