Boatman

Have you ever been along?
The low-lit cobble stone
Too long to carry song
It is not so, we will not go
Caught between and carried on
Only he can know
Who we are and where we’ve gone
We are not so, we will not go
Left for those that left us all
Within a half past day
Who is all beyond the wall
He will not say, we all must wait
Long are the roads to lead us home
Short is the path we see
Too long to carry song
We cannot see, what we will be
He is the ghost on the water
He is the salesman of souls
We are ghosts of the martyrs
We are the names on the scroll
