To the depths I went Always brand in fist To find what made these paths I thought I freely trod What illusions waited there To upturn the ship of tranquillity What machine within worked To hide the shadows What lies came in dreams To veil the truth And the soul’s guardian, to protect me Stayed loyal to false master When it should to my ambition alone cleave And my song venerate An ocean lays at my heart It is still or stormy Of its own wild freedom But now I can sail it For I am bound To the friends of true depth Who understand what I truly am The illusions in me, games of the mind Shocked for years, shaken in fear Of harsh words, of the street, of night The evidence now piles against it. I have earned my honours In the heart of the woods And was always of bliss And was always of bliss Gentleness is I, peace is I Merriness is I, truthseeker am I.

To the depths
To the depths I went Always brand in fist To find what made these paths I thought I freely trod What illusions waited there To upturn the ship of tranquillity What machine within worked To hide the shadows What lies came in dreams To veil the truth And the soul’s guardian, to protect me Stayed loyal to false master When it should to my ambition alone cleave And my song venerate An ocean lays at my heart It is still or stormy Of its own wild freedom But now I can sail it For I am bound To the friends of true depth Who understand what I truly am The illusions in me, games of the mind Shocked for years, shaken in fear Of harsh words, of the street, of night The evidence now piles against it. I have earned my honours In the heart of the woods And was always of bliss And was always of bliss Gentleness is I, peace is I Merriness is I, truthseeker am I.
