lyrics

On these hollow fields of depth
Black shadows and violet serpentines
The ocean hides the beasts inside
And they're calling me again
I respond, dreaming no more

The lights start to flow like a river of aquamarine
All the big pictures and small fears crawling together like a circus troupe
All mine in this hour of ruby sunset
Light fades on the sea as I rest my head aboard

The unseen and immeasurable depth holds the ship in its arms
Causing the sails to shiver on the cold wind
Night walks behind us
With drops of rain on her lips
Deep red
In warm smoke
She speaks
And I see each day of my life
Her voice scratches my mind
It will never reach me again
Unless one day the eternity stops running

Lost in harbour of possibilities
I chose solitude
Trees on the shoreline will never hold my hand
Never speak or even look
Never open their eyes for me
As the shadows pass the ocean and cover me as I lie
I feel that we move

In the light of a day
I always stood in shadows
Always thirsting with questions
Never receiving answers
Step by step
My opium trail
Leaves me by the sea
Now, please
Only take me back, into the black
Molokai
