Текст песни

I was born and raised by the sea, shy yet proud,
Learned to stay away from the crowd
In my home, my lighthouse,
101 steps round and round,
New Year's Eve, one night on the town
Can change one life into eternity

All I could see, her eyes,
We got caught in the moment, all of the night
Taken beyond all lines,
In silence leaving them all behind
She had found the sails, for the following night
The town for her was getting way too small
She promised to be mine
Forever for that one night
Moments, passion, small defeats,
Concealed emotions, found in me
"You gave life to a brand new me..."

Crossing the wintry fields,
The first hour of morning light
Warmed by the flame inside,
The lasting memory of the ending night

I never had a chance to stop what hit me,
What broke my bones and mauled me,
After hours of deep, unwilling sleep
in a cold shelter fell back in the dark,
( and the hours of the day passed)
A nightmare awakes me, blinking light!
There's no guide, blind ships in the night,
Oh blood red moon, eat away the night
Darkness covers my lonely soul,
No one to feed the dying light

Good morn, oh dreadful day,
I prayed the moon had lit the sea instead of me
For the sails of night,
"Please tell me everything's alright..."
My voice in the room broke the silence,
Everybody killed me with their eyes...
What I was to hear made the people cry,
Impossible for me to keep the tears inside

"All on the board White Pearl have died,
Coastal reef has tolled their lives
And you are the light of the night..."
One thing, I remember, before I fell on the ground
Although I never saw the face,
A name was inked in his arm
Love can be like poetry of demons,
Or maybe God loves complex irony?
The family name stated I had seen before
Written on her front door
"Silence in the courthouse!"
A presence in the room, we both could feel
The father of her unborn child and me

All on the board White Pearl have died,
Coastal reef have tolled their lives
While I was the guide light...
Back in my tower, run, run, run
Light is out, I hope to see
Black oceans beneath rise and swallow me

One step will take me back inside, another sees my end
No one can love a man who guarded the light
That died...Оne faithful night...
Flaming eyes I must confront before I'm stated free
Defining innocence is hell, after all that has past
Building new walls inside my eternal night,
Although they took my heart and dried me up
Sometimes I still bleed...

Show me the way,
The light will show me a way on the grisly reefs,
Too many dead ends I see,
No soul can save me
The respect I lost, the measure of a man

10000 steps down, round and round
One night at the town and I'm hell bound,
Black oceans beneath come and swallow me,
All on the board White Pearl had died,
Coastal reef come claim my life,
Black oceans beneath come and swallow me
My little tower, seal my fate,
Help me pay back, end their hate,
Black oceans beneath come and swallow me,
One direction, down, down, down
Pitch black night for my old town,
Black oceans beneath shall now swallow me

I hereby commit my body to the deep
To be turned into corruption,
Looking for a resurrection of the body
When the sea shall give up her dead
And the life of the world to come, through our Lord
Amen!



White Pearl, Black Oceans

I was born and raised by the sea, shy yet proud,
Learned to stay away from the crowd
In my home, my lighthouse,
101 steps round and round,
New Year’s Eve, one night on the town
Can change one life into eternity

All I could see, her eyes,
We got caught in the moment, all of the night
Taken beyond all lines,
In silence leaving 'em all behind

She had found the sails, for the following night
The town for her was getting way too small
She promised to be mine
Forever for that one night

Moments, passion, small defeats,
Concealed emotions, found in me
"You gave life to a brand new me..."

Crossing the wintry fields,
The first hour of morning light
Warmed by the flame inside,
The lasting memory of the ending night

I never had a chance to stop what hit me,
What broke my bones and mauled me,
After hours of deep, unwilling sleep in a cold shelter
Fell back in the dark, and the hours of the day passed

A nightmare awakes me, blinking light!
There's no guide, blind ships in the night,
Oh blood red moon, eat away the night
Darkness covers my lonely soul,
No one to feed the dying light

Good morn', oh dreadful day,
I prayed the moon had lit the sea instead of me
For the sails of night,
"Please tell me everything's alright..."

My voice in the room broke the silence,
Everybody killed me with their eyes...
What I was to hear made the people cry,
Impossible for me to keep the tears inside

"All on the board White Pearl have died,

And you are the light of the night..."

Back in my tower, run, run, run
Light is out, I hope to see
Black oceans beneath rise and swallow me

One step will take me back inside, another sees my end
No one can love a man who guarded the light
That died one faithful night, so many lives...
Flaming eyes I must confront before I'm stated free

Defining innocence is hell, after all that has past
Building new walls inside my eternal night,
Although they took my heart and dried me up
Sometimes I still bleed...

Show me the way,
The light will show me a way on the grisly reefs,

Black oceans beneath shall now swallow me

[SPOKEN:]
I hereby commit thy body to the deep
To be turned into corruption,
Looking for a resurrection of the body
When the sea shall give up her dead
And the life of the world to come, through our Lord
Amen!
