I've fallen away from the beautiful,
And lost the light of day;
The night now claims my wither'd soul,
My heart will silence pay.
Part the seas which sway'd me so,
Sailed the golden course, I did not;
Swallowed whole into the depths below,
For greed then had me caught.
Where may lie my body still,
If nowhere I am found?
In deep waters She'll take the ****
No grave within the ground!
Alas, my time is all but spent,
Life so swiftly came and went.

I've fallen away from the beautiful,
And lost the light of day;
The night now claims my wither'd soul,
My heart will silence pay.
Part the seas which sway'd me so,
Sailed the golden course, I did not;
Swallowed whole into the depths below,
For greed then had me caught.
Where may lie my body still,
If nowhere I am found?
In deep waters She'll take the ****
No grave within the ground!
Alas, my time is all but spent,
Life so swiftly came and went.
