lyrics

I awoke on the shore of a river/
When I noticed a light in the distance/
So I approached that faint glow/
To find a man with a lamp in his outstretched hand/
He stood on a vessel/
Held afloat by passed men’s souls/
And he turned to me/
So with the voice of the deceased/
He then spoke to me/
About death and eternity/
Of the way men live and die/
And how their death reflects their lives/
And as I went to reply/
He saw an absence/
And he sent me away/
He sent me away/
So I wandered the stones of the shore/
Until my feet grew weary/
Haven’t I waited long enough/
I’ve already lived my life alone/
I was void of tongue/
I was just a coin away/
Oh god, I was so close/
He then spoke to me/
About death and eternity/
Of the way men live and die/
And how their death reflects their lives/
And as I went to reply/
He helped me aboard/
And we cast away/
We cast away/
Just a river’s distance from your embrace/
I can almost taste your breath/
