The Cardinal Point

The future was full of choices

But all chances fell to the waves - beneath a boat we built

With our hands keeping us safe on the surface

Broken plans were rusted by the tears of broken men

We chose another journey after weeks

We had sailed blind and astray

Fairy tales from the endless seas and liars

With their briefcase full of promises

-We could sail the big ship across the ocean

Navigating to the dreams

I couldn't tell where the sea ended

And the sky began - 'cos of the dark

No light on the hill to lead us to the way of salvation

Keeping us separate from these cold and dark waters

Preventing disappearance to those waves

Of lightning and storm

Fairy tales from the endless seas and liars

With their briefcase full of promises

-We could sail the big ship across the ocean

Navigating to the dreams
