I was born and raised by the sea, shy yet proud,
Learned to stay away from the crowd
In my home, my lighthouse
1000 steps down round and round
New years eve, one night in the town
Can change one life into eternity...
All i could see, her eyes
We got caught in the moment, all of the night
Taken beyond all lines
In silence leaving 'em all behind
She had found the sails, for the following night
The town, for her, was getting way too small
She promised to be mine
Forever ...for that one night...
Moments, passion, small defeats
Concealed emotions, found in me
"You gave life to a brand new me"
Crossing the wintery fields
The first hour of morning's light
Warmed by the flame inside
The lasting memory of the ending night
I never had a chance to stop what hit me...
What broke my bones and mauled me
After hours of deep, unwilled sleep... in a cold shelter
Fell back in the dark... and the hours of the day passed...
A nightmare awakes me, blinking light!
There's no guide, blind ships in the night
Oh, blood red moon, eat the night!
Darkness covers my lonely soul
No one to feed the dying light
Good morn, oh dreadful day!
I prayed the moon had lit the sea instead of me...
For the sails of night...
"Please tell me everything is alright..."
My voice in the room broke the silence
Everybody killed me with her eyes...
What i was to hear made the people cry
Impossible for me to keep the tears inside
"All on the board white pearl have died
Costal reef have tolled their lives
And you are the light of the night... "
One thing i remember, before i fell on the ground...
Although i never saw the face
A name inked in his arm...
Love can be like poetry of demons, or maybe
God loves complex irony?
The family names stated i had seen before
Written on her front door
"Silence in the courthouse"
A presence in the room we both could feel,
The father of her unborn child and me
All on the board white pearl have died
Coastal reef have tolled their lives
While i was the guide light...
Back in my tower, run, run, run
Light is out, i hope to see
Black oceans beneath me and swallow me
One step will take me back inside, and her sees my end
No one can love a man who guarded the light
That died one fateful night
Flaming eyes i must confront before i'm stated free
Defining innocence is hell after all that has past...
Building new walls inside my eternal night...
Although they took my heart and dried me up
Sometimes i still bleed...
Show me the way
The light will show me a way on the grisly reefs
Too many dead as i see
No soul can save me
The respect i lost, the measure of a man...
Ten thousand steps down, round and round
One night on the town and i'm hell bound
Black oceans beneath come and swallow me
"All on the board white pearl have died
Coastal reef come toll my life
Black oceans beneath come and swallow me
My little tower, seal my fate
Help me pay back, end their hate
Black oceans beneath come and swallow me
One direction, down, down, down
Pitch black night for my old town
Black oceans beneath shall now swallow me
"I hereby commit my life to the deep,
To eternity to the ocean
Looking for the resurrection of the body,
When the sea shall give up her dead
In the life of the world to come
Through our lord, amen."
