Maiden Voyage: The Journey Embarks Lyrics

[Instrumental]

By the stars we will travel
Our goal is golden
Poseidon will be our judge
The sea our jury
On wings of cloth we drift on seas of infinite discovery
We seek something glorious to call our own
Life cascades from our souls in waterfalls of opaline

As youthful ignorance is consumed in our wake
The winds pounding against us gather strength
Darkness seems to descend
And many a frightened man feels his spirit desert him
As it dawns on man that his hope is unfounded
That his future is a great darkness
Fate calls his name; for he controls not his own prosperity or his own misery
The wind whispers unto me great stories of tragedy
The horizon becomes an enigma
Behold mist-laden landscapes
The journey ahead may be a perilous one
But there is no turning back

Farewell to youthful innocence
The last ray of light passes over me
I am freed from the chains forced upon me by a sleeping society
Freedom
Misery is freedom
Yet I cry
As I sail into a lonesome darkness feared by many, yet treasured by some
I am unaware that I am entering the first stages of a great enlightenment which must crush my soul before it can awaken it
Doomed to see salvation
Oh, how great a contradiction my life is to become
This journey has just begun
