There and Not
Merely a perception of the line that divides
Oceans never to join, skies never to touch
A sunset that disappears below to nothingness
A sunrise that appears from a blank image
Not a horizon, only endless miles, on and on
Will it ever stay for me to reach it?
Perhaps not even for a second
Believing in a dream to catch a mysterious place
Navitey, just praying for a deceitful lie and treachery
With hands held high, there is nothing to feel
No matter how far there is to stretch
Waiting wonders, they all left before I arrived
All seen in dreams are not truth, but a false reflection
There is a reason why no one has gone beyond
Just a horizon, just a horizon, just a horizon
Sailed the seven seas for you
My voyage and sojourn with no end
Through maelstroms and lighting bolts
Through tidal waves and great sea beasts
And not to find the grand treasure of the chest
I should have know
I should have seen beyond the sun
What it was all along
Just a horizon
