Fair Haven of Thesterness


From the darkness comes new light
From the light wake fear and fright
Thousand faces stare at me
Thousands stare, not one can see
Could they pierce my masked face
They would behold my last grimace
So here I lie and here I hide
To save me from my suicide

My ship has anchored
I harbour here

Spread the shroud all o'er my corpse
Place the coins upon the orbs
Tuck me in my vessel's hull
My voyage will be long and dull
They've pushed me off, the shore is far
And farther yet each guiding star
They deem the ride be long for me
But yet I belong to eternity

The sea is peaceful
And still the night

Fair haven of thesterness, my black embrace
Fair haven of loneliness, my only hiding place

My journey ends not
Nor ever will
I know and sense nought
For all is still

In this darkness glows no gleam:
Ever-sparkless, dawnless dream
My soul a raven, haggard and hoar
Fit to soar and seek the shore

The body travels and the raven flies
And the raven flies
And the raven flies no more
