Fogbound Ferry - Penguin
Lyrics: 栢先
Composed: 栢先
Leaving the solid ground, stepping into the grey
Watching the city lights slowly melt away
The heavy metal deck vibrating beneath my feet
A lonely voyage where the ocean and the midnight meet
A blanket of thick fog erasing all the lines
No stars to guide me, no illuminated signs
Just the dark water churning against the iron hull
In this suspended moment, the world is beautifully dull
A distant foghorn crying out into the endless blind
Echoing the silent heavy weight I left behind
The cold salt air is filling up my weary lungs
Tasting the unspoken words resting on our tongues
Ah, drifting further into the absolute unknown
For the first time tonight, I don't feel so alone
Swallowed by the vapor, carried by the deep
Rocking gently in the arms of a dreamless sleep
No shore in sight, no anchor dragging me down
Just the rhythm of the waves, keeping me safe and sound
Safe and sound
No shore in sight
