You're on a journey through night and day
And there used to be this passenger aboard
You don't know anymore when you'll reach the bay
Or even if you'll ever get ashore
An ocean with waves like this sure can get mean
There's nothing to do but to follow the stream
No, there's nothing to do but to follow the stream
You are the ship and now it's abandoned
But the passenger has left behind his things
Maybe he's safe or maybe he's stranded
He flew away on a pair of black wings
And here you are yet not quite alone
You look at the sky, but the sun is gone
Yeah, you look at the sky, but the sun is gone
The things he left you are memories and words
But you have to have your ship float
THe deck is covered by greedy black birds
And your only hope is one small lifeboat
You're looking around, but no land is in sight
Yeah, You're looking around, but no land's in sight
A lonely life boat away from it's ship
From the cargo it's about to sink
You stand by the rail with your hand on your hip
And keep it in sight while you try not to think
The waiting birds have now all disappeared
And the emptiness inside you, it feels a bit wierd
Yes, the emptiness inside, it feels a bit wierd
The passenger is missing and now his things too
The luggage of thoughts are travelling alone
Last on your ship there is only you
And the words and the promises are finally gone
You have to get rid of the things in your way
To be able to hoist the recovering sail
And in the end you will find your own harboring bay
But the feelings still return as the night kills the day
