Dead Ocean Song

Driving the phantom ship into the seas of turmoil, hanging onto the swells of the dead ocean song

I remember the skies, endless in their will to love

I remember my song , born innocent in the arms of friends

Sunsets pray on horizons and dig deep into the eyeball theater

I was falling wordlessly and bound for the bottom

The days are walking in single file, past the gallery of memories and the will to transpire

Someday soon , i don't know when, i'll pick myself up again

Dust off these ancient bones, Pick my head up and head on home
