While Heaven Wept - "Vast Oceans Lachrymose / The Furthest Shore (Parts 1-3)" [live at Hammer Of Doom III]

1. Vast Oceans Lachrymose (instrumental)

2. The Furthest Shore (Parts 1-3)

So long ago, I set out to sea,
Forsaken by god and man
Visions of passion, glory and gold
Beckoned from distant lands

I left behind all I had known,
Aspiring to live, love, and conquer
Unaware that these futile pursuits
Would only yield a drifting sepulchre

Desperate
I have traversed
The seas of
Sorrow

Aimlessly drifting for many a year, cursing this fated endeavor
Hopeless, I accept that the solace I've sought will elude me forever
Straining against the maelstrom unbound, my limbs frailed and broken
Splintered apart after storm upon storm, my heart and hopes have sunken

Desolate
I have succumb
to the seas of
Sorrow
