Lyrics: As the darkness that surrounds me tightens its grip around my mind I shall cling on to the memories hoping they won't fade in time I'll write songs and allegories for those i left behind Come what may I'll always carry them with me in heart and mind their presence be They're in my thoughts and in my dreams they are the air i breathe My life was planned in detail much like a well constructed maze But with trapdoors and shortcuts built on a lifetime of escapades Then i lost the plan, the layout yes i guess i lost my way Come what may I'll stay on course, the best i can But should the wind choose and demand To lead me onto distant shores No matter how my heart implores Take me home, let me rest my bones I search to find some peace of mind But the end seems out of range Please, take me home from the great unknown I have roamed and lingered here so long How i wish the winds would change and take me home To all those that i love and cherish To those i hold dear to my heart Please forgive me as i falter on my way back home To Ithaka
