Alone at sea the waves they weave so endlessly By pirate ships that sink and plunder All our silted gold A distant shadow spreads like a widow Grieving for her brother's meadow Where he perished like a winter flower The thoughts of a land where the ancients used to roam The stars are lighting a path that leads me home All the lost souls in a galaxy Pickled in a green blue sea My heart stretches to infinity Hope to meet you there A peachy skin, an orphan child who runs out wild And screams and cries A listening wind It echoes ancient scenes A poetical madness, a desolate sadness A song so arid, desert and cactus Prickling and scratching Praying and letting off steam The thoughts of a land where the ancients used to roam Stars are lighting a path that leads me home All the lost souls in a galaxy Pickled in a green blue sea My heart stretches to infinity Hope to meet you there And the poet and the preacher says To remind them of their death There's a twinkling in the sky today Maybe one last breath
