White Pearl, Black Oceans...

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 dound
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 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 board the White Pearl have died
Coastal 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 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 board the 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
(Guarded the light one faithful night)
Flaming eyes I must confront before I am 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 (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.

10 000 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 the body to the deep
To be turned into corruption
Looking for the resurrection of the body
When the Sea shall give up her dead
And the life of the world to come through our Lord
Amen.
