[Intro]

[Verse]
Black sails tattered, ghostly white
Drifting slow in pale moonlight
Whispers carried on the breeze
From the drowned and troubled seas
We are the echoes, lost and cold
A story that will not be told

[Pre-Chorus]
The foghorn cries a mournful sound
As we circle round and round
This cursed ship, our final bed
Among the unquiet dead

[Chorus]
But see the grey on the horizon line
A hint of light, a subtle sign
The wreckage fades, a memory
We are drifting toward the sea's decree
Peace at last, the pain will cease
Into the dawn, we find release

[Verse]
The cello weeps a solemn tune
Beneath the weak and fading moon
Accordion sighs in minor keys
Carried out on dying seas
Each frame drum beat, a fading heart
As we finally drift apart

[Pre-Chorus]
The spectral voices start to fade
A promise in the light is made
No more the storm, no more the fight
Just the coming of the light

[Chorus]
And see the grey on the horizon line
A hint of light, a subtle sign
The wreckage fades, a memory
We are drifting toward the sea's decree
Peace at last, the pain will cease
Into the dawn, we find release

[Bridge]
The deep male choir begins to swell
A final, tender, last farewell
Dark strings now warm, a gentle glow
As the ocean starts to slow

[Instrumental]

[Verse]
Black sails falling, soft and slow
Where the morning breezes blow
Ghostly figures start to wane
Washed away by gentle rain
No more torment, no more dread
We join the silent, peaceful dead

[Chorus]
And see the grey on the horizon line
A hint of light, a subtle sign
The wreckage fades, a memory
We are drifting toward the sea's decree
Peace at last, the pain will cease
Into the dawn, we find release

[Outro]
