Текст песни The Illusion of Silence - The Old Seaman

NOW HE FEELS SO TIRED
LIKE HE WALKED IN A FROZEN LAND
THE TIDE HAS WRAPPED AROUND HIM
ITS ICY SHARP NAILS
HE ROWS IN A SEA OF MUD
AND HIS ARMS ARE SO HEAVY NOW

HE WISHES HE COULD SLEEP
BUT HE IS AFRAID TO SLEEP
TO FALL AND NEVER COME BACK

THE LOW TIDE
INVITES HIM
TO TOUCH THE HEADY HORIZON
AND HE SWIMS
LIKE AN OLD WHALE
TOWARD THE WOMB OF THE ABYSS

THE LIGHT UNDER WATER
EMBRACES HIS BLUE EYES
HE REMEMBERS THE TIME HE WAS YOUNG
HE KNOWS THAT DREAMS CAN BURN
IN A COIL OF MADNESS AND BLOOD

HE WISHES HE COULD SLEEP
BUT HE IS AFRAID TO SLEEP
TO FALL AND NEVER COME BACK

THE HIGHT TIDE
INVADES HIM
HE CAN HEAR HER VOICE AGAIN
AND HE SWIMS
LIKE AN OLD WHALE
TOWARD THE WOMB OF THE ABYSS
