Emerald Seas

Igne Defendit Cave bestia inferius In oriente immortalitatis

Follow the ghost of a dream Make port at the edge of the sea The heart weighs like stone on a journey alone I'll sink it and then take my leave Thousands of places to see A few special faces to leave Take what you need, there is nothing to see But a dreamer who travels alone Still I yearn for the warmth of an angel Though heartless, I still feel the cold I could dance in the arms of an angel When the weariness takes its toll Bound by the ghost of a dream And haunted by specters of grief Distant, the glow of the promises old The cure for mortality Still I yearn for the warmth of an angel Though heartless, I still feel the cold I would sleep in the arms of an angel When the weariness takes its toll Follow the ghost of a dream Before the weariness takes its toll

Your eyes glowed like the sun bleeding in the sky No words exchanged, we knew that it was time A flood of senses from another life Our souls are king and queen again Caress the dark, two hearts beating in the night Two mortals bathed in dying candlelight Short of breath, you set me alight Once lost, I found my home again Intoxicated body, mind, and soul Fill me with your love until I am whole Stay with me, if only for tonight Don't want to walk alone again

My dear, I stand before you with open arms And a heart with an iron exterior I will understand your reluctance, but charm Has blessed me with her favor Turn away tonight, I know that it's hard To fathom a life all alone Would you follow me into the darkness? Stay by my side and fight with me Share every breath, let me guide you into prosperity Every crest, every quest, every journey All of this could be ours But I will walk the road to the ocean and sail Until sirens welcome me home By now, you know tedium's something I despise Though the time we've spent is enchanting Tempestuous and tameless, our passions combined Fearless and free to explore Hear me out tonight, for nothing can stand in my way But I must ask Would you follow me into the darkness? Stay by my side and fight with me Share every breath, let me guide you into prosperity This is the moment Show me you're not like fools I've lost Say that you mean it Out of love and wanderlust I will walk alone I will walk alone until sirens welcome me home Every crest, every quest, every journey All of this could be ours But I will walk the road to the ocean and sail Until sirens welcome me home Would you follow me into the darkness? Stay by my side and fight with me Share every breath, let me guide you into prosperity I will walk alone to the ocean I will walk alone I will walk alone until sirens welcome me home

The howl of the wind will sing me to sleep The breath of the cold won't devour me I'll stay in love, and I'll stay alive Calling the chaos my home I'll count every star and think what could be A limitless sky full of dreams One day, I know we'll reunite And one day I'll find what makes me whole Burning out like a fire in the cold Suffocated by time and by snow I'm paralyzed by the demons inside But my instincts will not let me go Out into unmapped darkness Stand guard on the glass of a dreary sea Ignite the fires for one more night Push on where I'm meant to be The howl of the wind will sing me to sleep The breath of the cold won't devour me I'll stay in love, and I'll stay alive Calling the chaos my home I'll count every star and think what could be A limitless sky full of dreams One day, I know we'll reunite And one day I'll find what makes me whole There's a creature that haunts tales of old They say it follows the ones without hope Magnificent beast, come consume me And release me from my cage of bones Out into unmapped darkness Stand guard on the glass of a dreary sea Ignite the fires for one more night Push on where I'm meant to be The howl of the wind will sing me to sleep The breath of the cold won't devour me I'll stay in love, and I'll stay alive Calling the chaos my home I'll count every star and think what could be A limitless sky full of dreams One day, I know we'll reunite And one day I'll find what makes me whole

Midsummer's night, revelers caught in a haze The air hangs thick with their perfume You're enchantingly eloquent?in?every phrase As we?dance to a familiar tune Black and?white memories swept me away And the eyes of someone I knew Made me succumb to familiar pains 'Neath the light of a silvery moon Stockholm or Paris, London or Venice Where did we last rendezvous? Centuries passed since the last time you swore That you would see me soon Toe to toe, ancient soul pierced by your gaze Graceful hair kissed by pale blooms I'm a fool, I'm moondrunk, and I'm tasting stars 'Neath the light of a silvery moon Drawn by words of late romantics Strange, familiar elegance If I am dreaming, let me sleep through the night Forget the broken promises Embrace the warm and tenebrous The world only fades for the length of a sigh Speaking in couplets and drinking our wine The glow of the dawn comes too soon Just two poets lost in time 'Neath the light of a silvery moon

Hopeless traveler Hapless prisoner Bound by land, and I by sea Our fates forever run side by side But never intertwine Broken poet Lost and floating In the wreckage of all my deeds My ship's in pieces, my heart and pride At the mercy of the tide I will bury you among the stars That litter the skies of my heart Next to the moon that you placed in its folds So lovingly, so long ago Dancing pony Always lonely Beneath the lights of your destiny My dear, every day that goes by You are on my mind But I bury you among the stars That litter the skies of my heart Next to the moon that you placed in its folds So lovingly, so long ago And days will dawn, and you'll fade from sight And if we're done I'll meet you there Without a doubt, without a fear I'll see you on the other side or in another life Search within yourself and you'll find That I too had never left I will bury you among the stars That litter the skies of my heart Next to the moon that you placed in its folds So lovingly, so long ago

I walk this earth in torment I bathe in anguished waves I carry this storm inside No rest and no escape Unfounded fire feeding the siren's call, the keening Defeatedly yearning to be lost in death's sweet embrace I do not fear the darkness I do not fear the cold This mortal form is tired This weary soul is old Memories of life Nightmares of waterlogged remains Agony bleeds And robs me of dreams No reconciliation No rest and no escape No carnal worldly sin Could ease this ancient ache I do not fear the darkness I do not fear the cold This mortal form is tired This weary soul is old O deepest, darkest sea As I slip into perdition May I glimpse the absolution of mortality's delusions? For here is an eternal continuance Free of adversity and useless martyrdom I do not fear the darkness I do not fear the cold This mortal form is tired This weary soul is old Fading into peaceful oblivion Bright lights behind closed eyes My spirit one with the ebb and flow, the tide The rumble of my soul still and quiet now My heart fluttering against the iron bars of my body Fighting to stay awake

The dream is dead I'm finally free So please, forget Entirely All that I was in life Do not mourn or ache for me Know that I found peace So, with love from the other side The dream is dead And so am I

The trouble with eternal life is love grows old and people change The world crumbles as you stay the same One day you may awake and find You're left alone within your mind 'cause everything you loved has passed away I'll bend the boundaries of time for you Over and over again Follow the songs that the sirens sing Until we're together again So now with flesh that won't decay And with these bones that never break We've lifetimes to meet and make amends We'll sing every song, taste every wine Until we're drunk on moonlight and on Dreams achieved, for this is not the end I'll bend the boundaries of time for you Over and over again Follow the songs that the sirens sing Until we're together again I have conquered death In your final breath I'll guide your lost and lonely soul back home to shore I'll bend the boundaries of time for you Over and over again Follow the songs that the sirens sing Until we're together again

With drink in hand, we drink to friends The open road is calling This is our fixation, It's the curse we've known for thousands of years Searching from horizon to horizon To sail every sea, ride every wave, And weather every storm To every destination With the sun upon our backs And the song upon our tongues Let's ignite all the memories of The wrongs that we have done We embrace the night, embrace the high We depart at first light but With drink in hand, we drink to friends The open road is calling This is our obsession, Always pushing for a time when we're free To achieve and enchant our desires To sing every song, taste every wine, and let the heartstrings soar And journey to forever With the stars above our head And the silver on our tongue Let's ignite all the memories of The wrongs that we have done I will see you on the other side We depart at first light but With drink in hand, we drink to friends The open road is calling This is our obsession, Always pushing for a time when we're free To achieve and enchant our desires This is our fixation, It's the curse we've known for thousands of years So bring me that horizon
