I was born and raised by the sea, shy yet proud,

Learned to stay away from the crowd

In my home, my lighthouse...

101 steps round and round

New Years Eve, one night on 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 wintry fields,

The first hour of morning 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, unwilling 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 away 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’s alright..."

My voice in the room broke the silence,

Everybody killed me with their 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,

Coastal reef has 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 was inked in his arm...

Love can be like poetry of demons, or maybe

God loves complex irony?

The family name 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 rise and swallow me

One step will take me back inside, another sees my end

No one can love a man who guarded the light

That died one faithful night, so many lives...

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 ends I see

No soul can save me

The respect I lost, the measure of a man...

10000 steps down, round and round

One night at the town and I’m hell bound

Black oceans beneath come and swallow me

All on the board White Pearl had died,

Coastal reef come claim 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 thy body to the deep

To be turned into corruption

Looking for a resurrection of the body

When the sea shall give up her dead

And the life of the world to come, through our Lord

A
