Felt I was an old sailboat anchored in your mind
The Dead Sea slowly rising and the water turned to wine
I was drunk on the time passing, I was cradled by the tide

This wind brought a howl, got me in a storm
I saw a lighthouse spinning at the edge of the world
Like looking through a window to the day I was born

How green is the valley when you step out of the mines
And see the bright light shining through
a pair of stained glass eyes?
There's nothing here to rely on but a compass in the sky

There's nothing like surviving the elemental war
And there's nothing like forgetting
that you ever fought before
You can dust your feathers
after you've burned the crown of thorns
