Treasure Cruise

Описание: TREASURE CRUISE - Eon

OLYMPE

The anchors are forged from the marrow of my spine
A heavy inheritance, a debt that isn't mine
But I carry the gold, and I carry the ghost
Of every tired soul drifting off the coast.
They look to the lighthouse, they look to my eyes
To find a horizon in blood-colored skies
And I’ll give them the marrow, I’ll give them the light
While I drown in the silence of the velvet night.


Is this the tax for the breath in my chest?
To be the foundation, to never find rest?
My hands are a temple, my heart is a cage
Written in ink on an eternal page.

​
Oh, this Treasure Cruise is a heavy weight to sail
Behind this mask of iron, I am terrifyingly frail
But I am the pillar, the salt, and the stone
The ancient protector, forever alone.
In the cycle of life, I’m the flame and the spark
Holding the world while I break in the dark.


I am the architect of a comfort I can’t feel
Forging the shield with a spirit of steel.
It’s an old geometry, a sacred design
To offer my neck so the others can shine.
But the wood is splintering, the hull is thin
Where does the ocean end and where do I begin?


Look at the hands, look at the scars, look at the way I’m counting the stars
Just to find a way out of the skin that I’m in, I’m losing the fight before I begin!
"Be the man," "Be the wall," "Be the one who catch 'em when they fall"
But who’s gonna catch me? Who’s gonna see? There’s a hollowed-out god living inside of me!
I’m angry at the weakness, I’m disgusted by the tears
I’ve been choking on my pride for a thousand years!
I can’t hold the sun, I can’t stop the rain
I’m a fraud in the glory, I’m a king in the pain!


SHATTER THE CROWN! SHATTER THE LIGHT!
I’M SICK OF THE BURDEN, I’M SICK OF THE FIGHT!
SHATTER THE LIGHT! SHATTER THE LIGHT!
​I’M SICK OF THE BURDEN, I’M SICK OF THE FIGHT!


COLLECT THE DEBT.
CARRY THE WEIGHT.
I AM THE VESSEL.
I AM THE FATE.


The cruise continues...
The treasure is heavy...
And I am still here.
Just a man.
Eternal.
Tired... Tired...
