You're the island
In the sea of time,
I'm the ghost ship
In the night.
In the eye of the storm
You're the lighthouse,
I am at the edge of the world
Beyond the walls.
Death tore out
The flesh from my bones,
Left my soul so pale and hollow.
My hands reach into the void
Where you used to be!
Built my armour
From the bones of them angels,
Breathing out the arrows of God.
My hands reach into the void
Where you used to be.
You're the island
On the broken sky,
I will keep my sacred vows.
Under moonlit skies
Here on the black earth,
In the fragments of an empty heart
Where you used to be.
Death tore out
The flesh from my bones,
Left my soul so pale and hollow.
My hands reach into the void
Where you used to be!
Built my armour
From the bones of them angels,
Breathing out the arrows of God.
My hands reach into the void
Where you used to be.
Riding on the edge of the world,
Now free like the racing clouds
Circling around the halo of the moon.
Riding on the edge of the world,
Now free like the racing clouds circling
Around the halo of the moon like the
Birds of the night when touched by the sun.
You're the island
In the sea of sky,
I'm the ghost ship
In the night.
In the eye of the storm
You're my lighthouse,
I'm at the edge of the world.
