Into the Dead Calm

Another long day has come to end
 Heading out towards the evening sun
 The sky turns crimson in its wake
 Setting sail into the dead calm...
 There isn't a moment when I am not afraid
 I've even knelt down on my knees and prayed
 You may think it is so lonely on the sea
 But it's the last place that feels like home for me
 It's 2 in the morning and I am still awake
 Startled by a foreboding that I just couldn't shake
 A distant coyote howling in the dark
 And a murder of crows are fleeing to the north
 I can still see that look upon your face
 And it still haunts me until this very day
 But even as those dark visions fade my mind
 I clutch onto them and the world I left behind
 There's nothing left here in this world for me
 So this old man sets out his course for sea
 As the Harbormaster sounds his last alarm
 I set sail into the dead calm
 the dead calm...
