i’m a boat without an oar set adrift on a sea of unforgiving crests.

Battered and bruised; searching for land.

Past the point of no return, i’m sailing where maps can never whisper their secrets.

Is this a place even Your hands can’t reach?

How far is too far away to feel Your touch?

Sometime i swear right here is too far from where You are.

Others i can’t get away fast enough.

Do i turn back?

Can i turn back now?

Or do i follow this down?

If by chance i see heaven on the other side,

i’m sure the trail will be littered with a thousand floating mariners lost at sea.

And if i can venture forward through an ocean of corpses,

How do i keep from joining their sad song?

Can we still run from death while sleeping in coffins?

i’m a dirge without a voice, hanging on the lips of a mute.
