We`ll hoist a hand, becalmed upon a troubled sea
`Make haste to your funeral,` cries the Valkyrie
We`ll hoist a hand or drown amidst this stormy sea
`Here lies a coffin,` cries the cemetery, it calls to me
And all for nothing quite in vain was hope forever tossed
No thoughts explained, no moments gained, all hope forever lost
One moment`s space, one moment`s final fall from grace
Burnt by fire, blind in sight, lost in ire
We`ll hoist a hand, becalmed upon a troubled sea
I fear a mighty wave is threatening me
We`ll hoist a hand, or drown amidst this stormy sea
`Come follow after,` cry the humble, `You will surely see …`
But still for nothing quite in vain was hope forever tossed
No moments gained, no thoughts explained, all hope forever lost
One moment`s space, one moment`s final fall from grace
Burnt by fire, blind in sight, lost in ire
