Not sure [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2giCw8JrRY \\\"And Then to CODA\\\"]] fully counts as WordSaladLyrics. In addition to mentions of the sky, wind, etc., the song seems very much like it could be about or sung by Elh:

* \\\"Rinsayara, etc.\\\" - Maybe the native language of the Paladins?
* \\\"Looking downcast, transient / You lie with a shaking voice / You reach to your fears with a trembling hand / Face turned away, trembling, in tears\\\" - Elh begins the game as a bit of an aloof loner and, after warming a bit, becomes more withdrawn again as the Rite of Forfeit gets closer [[spoiler:and eventually does break down crying, unable to continue.]]
* \\\"The winds crossing this sky / Will envelope you some day\\\" - A poetic way of saying [[spoiler:what should\\\'ve happened to Red after the Rite: he should\\\'ve died. Bonus points for the Anju religion\\\'s belief that birds carry souls to the sky, where the winds could indeed envelope them.]]
* \\\"The sound of the wind comes to be heard / It seems to sing lonlily\\\" - Actually, this bit \\\'\\\'does\\\'\\\' sound salad-y, though Elh does seem to have been pretty lonely before meeting Red and Chocolat.
* \\\"The key to the heart\\\'s door / I want it in my hand now\\\" - See ShipTease.
* \\\"Distant, far away / Shining star\\\" - Salad or a reference to the holy portal, maybe?
* \\\"The line for you to walk / is lit up for you\\\" - It\\\'s stated that Paladins can see a laser light that leads them to where the portal has opened up. Could also be a poetic way to speak of destiny.
* \\\"Spread both hands and feel the wind / I\\\'ll walk with you, wherever you go\\\" - Elh spends the majority of the game following Red around...despite not really doing much in the way of helping with fights. See also ShipTease, again.
* \\\"The fragrance carried by the wind / Falters for a moment, in distress / Fear not, for the drifting dream / Is illuminated by a hymn\\\" - I\\\'m drawing a blank, so I\\\'m declaring it salad.
* \\\"As stifled tears don\\\'t overflow / I will protect you, always\\\" - Once again a reference to [[spoiler:the Rite of Forfeit]], or perhaps to the fact that Red swore (on his tail!) that he\\\'d save her from Bruno, though the singer doesn\\\'t change to male to reflect the change in speaker.

So while there is indeed some salad there (unless someone wants to interpret those parts their way?), it doesn\\\'t seem quite as salad-y as that entry implies...
