Oceans

Waywards the ravenpath do lead
Echolalia sounds through these empty halls
Left and forgotten by a time now gone
Nothing left but ashen memories.

Creating ways to lead you astray
Breaking waves 'neath these sky so grey
I will bleed like the ones before me
So take heed and witness the end.

We left our home
Not in fear but in stride
We won't return
Until the last one is burnt.

We sail away across all of the seven seas
Yet we drown before we take our leave
We take part of a journey that cannot be
Yet we are judged before we are set free.

These pallid faces which I once knew
Have turned into a well of lost souls
The scars from the past have turned the nails of time
Never to return to brave gone by days.

All we have are scattered recollections
Now stuck in an endless loop of despondency
Away from the oceans of woe we foregather
To rejoice in these final hours.

We sail away across all of the seven seas
Yet we drown before we take our leave
We take part of a journey that cannot be
Yet we are judged before we are set free.

We leave this world through our incomparable deeds
A nautical journey devoid of fear and greed
As a spectral concord thrashing like a crest
Just like the tides of life we'll never get to rest.
