An old man by a seashore At the end of day Gazes the horizon With seawinds in his face Tempest-tossed island Seasons all the same Anchorage unpainted And a ship without a name (Imagery)

Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard He lightens the beacon, light at the end of world Showing the way lighting hope in their hearts The ones on their travels homeward from afar

This is for long-forgotten Light at the end of the world Horizon crying The tears he left behind long ago (Personification)

The albatross is flying Making him daydream The time before he became One of the world`s unseen Princess in the tower Children in the fields Life gave him it all: An island of the universe

Now his love`s a memory A ghost in the fog He sets the sails one last time Saying farewell to the world Anchor to the water Seabed far below Grass still in his feet And a smile beneath his brow

This is for long-forgotten Light at the end of the world Horizon crying The tears he left behind long ago (Personification)

Closer to the Truth (couldn't find another figure of speech)

Destiny, is hard to meet It'll hunt you down somewhere along the way (Personification) Don't you see? We're meant to be the prodigies that came to show the way

But I don't want to rule the world alone, and none of us can make it on our own I'm screaming but I cannot hear a sound The suffocation slowly comes around

Loneliness, eating me inside It's burning me alive I'm traveling in my mind And flying through a thousand lonely souls that cry In swamps of evil lies We're closer to the truth now Take me home (Personification)

Don't believe, it's dark to see When the sun has left you at the end of day Suddenly, it's hard to breathe Resting in the trenches, won't you say?

 Loneliness, eating me inside  It's burning me alive  I'm traveling in my mind  And flying through a thousand  lonely souls that cry  In swamps of evil lies  We're closer to the truth now  Take me home (Personification)
