Where Hope and Daylight Die is the fifth track of the album Stronghold by the band Summoning. The lyrics are influenced by an earlier version of the Tolkien poem In Western Lands beneath the Sun.[1]

Lyrics

Still here I wake and I think of you
I see you far away
Answer my call
Can you hear my voice
I hear you

For we are gone and forever lost
Broken here I lie
Beneath the shadow sink
Where daylight dies
I wake for you

In better lands the sun may shine
And green leaves on trees spring
Their opening and blossoming
But here the raven sing

But still I stand and think of
Days when grass was green
And my heart was so young
They 've never been past
Forever lost
