lyrics

when the fish doesn’t bite and the wind doesn’t come
and the water is poisoned by the rust in the drum
and you’re far out to sea, not a soul knows you’re there
in a boat that you built with your hands that were bare
with your hands that were bare

well I don’t mean to stare but you all seem to know something I don’t
was I missing when it was told? well I won’t ask you even so

the meat on my bones is not with my head
I am off on an astral plane while my body reads in bed
the story is ancient, another human on a quest
I am tired of dreaming, lift this weight from my chest
lift this weight from my chest

well I don’t mean to stare but you all seem to know something I don’t
was I missing when it was told? well I won’t ask you even so

to the beacon of light, I am traveling there
I am waiting for no one, I’m feeling no fear
I’m stripped of my armor, there is nothing left to fight
I am traveling yonder to the beacon of light
to the beacon of light

well I don’t mean to stare but you all seem to know something I don’t
was I missing when it was told? well I won’t ask you even so
