Navigatio lyrics

Sand falls slowly through the glass Breaking walls that pain had made Blurred visions of a buried past Rise inside me from the grave A mirror hangs upon the wall Stained and cracked beyond repair The final image of my mind Still breathing in the empty air Past is fading Done and gone Still I feel it Dragging on Oh, how many days have I lived? Oh, was it worth the pain I give? All the glory, all the scars All the storms beneath the stars At the end of this long road There is still so far to go Torn sails in the dying light Still I drift into the night Stars are born in clouded skies Like sparks above a darkened shore They remind me of the night I ruled the waves and wanted more Across the seas, against the cold King of winds I used to be Guided by the broken sails To the love that carried me Cold wind rising Calming, changing Every memory Breaking, fading Oh, how many days have I lived? Oh, was it worth the pain I give? All the glory, all the scars All the storms beneath the stars At the end of this long road There is still so far to go Torn sails in the dying light Still I drift into the night Still inside this tower I watch my past withdraw Nothing became what I dreamed Nothing bends the law Every crown I carried Every loss I tried to hide Falls like dust around me As the sea pulls back the tide The hourglass is bleeding The final grains descend Rotten wood and torn sails Show the lives I cannot spend Oh, how many days have I lived? Oh, was it worth the pain I give? All the glory, all the scars All the storms beneath the stars At the end of this long road There is still so far to go Torn sails in the dying light Still I drift into the night The glass is almost empty The sea has turned away Torn sails above me Still calling out my name
