Here we are together, at the end of an era. With "Bonfire (A Rest)" hailing as my final Dark Souls song, it felt appropriate to pay tribute to the serene melancholy of gathering around a flame and resting while bumping into other travelers of the same need. Somewhere along the way, it turned into a ballad of friendship and comradery, much like an end-of-the-year holiday gathering among old acquaintances. I suppose this is about as seasonal as a Dark Souls song could be! I've even gone and edited in a little extra holiday cheer.

Thank you all for being here with me on my journey through these transitory lands.

Lyrics:


I felt my bones shiver
Across rifts of time
I saw ghosts in the mist
And their faces like mine
And I looked to the footsteps
And gazed on a sign
That said "call my name
I'll join in the fight"
Broken and withered
We will rise again
My brothers and sisters
In death we are friends
Incandescent together
A slow fading light
The efforts cascading
Our time is tonight

Fractured and feeble
Ordinary people
Putting resolve to the test
Nobody chose to be risen
But new life is given
When we light a bonfire to rest

Old friends and rivals
We sit by the flame
To share in the moment
Before we can claim
Our own destiny's purpose
In each of our homes
We've all got our battles
But no one's alone
Nameless and searching
The light keeps us warm
In need and in danger
It guides through the storm
As we share in a question
Will we meet again
To sing by the embers
And brace for the end

Fractured and feeble
Ordinary people
Putting resolve to the test
Nobody chose to be risen
But new life is given
When we light a bonfire to rest

Undying forever
Through war and dark weather
Binding to search for a light
Some lit by grace or by embers
We're searching together
Starved for that break from the fight
Swords losing sharpness
To angels and darkness
These soldiers push on through the mire
Now we're all faced with the ending
The burn before mending
A vision to let there be fire

Fractured and feeble
Ordinary people
Putting resolve to the test
Nobody chose to be risen
But new life is given
When we light a bonfire to rest
