Caledonia in the Rare Auld Times
Sing a song of courage
As the light declines;
I remember Caledonia
In the Rare Auld Times.
There was my friend called Raphael,
He lost so much they say.
For love was taken from him
But his nature returned one day.
The untamed beast was subdued,
He helped me through the pain.
But again one day I turned to him,
His death fanned on the flame.
I lost my good friend Haggis,
A hero brave and true.
He gave his life for all of us,
As did Laird Ainsley too.
The deaths and darkness these have left,
Upon my tattered heart.
But there is only one real pain,
And its tearing me apart.
Chorus
For when they took my Shanon,
Put daggers through her skin;
And when her true light faded,
It was punishment for my sin.
I lost her to a war of sorts,
My heart returned to coal.
My love, my life, my memories
Were shattered with my soul.
