lyrics

The river seals the fate.
Bitter and desolate
It leads a callous ark
Into the dark.

Carriage of blue-eyed men.
Off to uncertain ends.
Sailors don´t stay the same.
There´s land to tame.

And the current runs to and fro,
Crowded with memories of all the ships it has borne.

Go, kiss your last goodbye. The sails are set, the wind blows right.
Off, off into the night, white-crested waves of fight.
Bearers of sword and fright, bearers of sacred light.
Off, off into the night. Off, off into the night.

Seeds of commonwealths, dreams of rich white men,
Over the edge of the world it carried them.
Shadows of the west, cast by rich white men,
Into the heart of the dark the cold water ran.

Heart of dark, forever broken and burned
By a spark that only took and never returned.
Swallow everything that has been there before.
So we can start again behind coast and shore.

The day this twilight land lies in the hollow hands
Of those who followed sea to unknown mystery,
There ain´t no self-control, no remains of stainless soul.
Amongst the wilderness there reigns a bitterness.

Seeds of commonwealths, dreams of rich white men,
Over the edge of the world it carried them.
Shadows of the west, cast by rich white men,
Into the heart of the dark the cold water ran.

The keen ship´s
Not to return from wild winds and foreign shore.
Hands that won´t hold your hand, lips that shall kiss no more.
For every inch that´s gained, there goes a son.
Let him float down the stream. A race that will never be won.

The river seals the fate.
Bitter and desolate
It leads a callous ark into the dark.

Heart of dark. Broken and beyond repair.
