The Road to Acheron Lyrics

I can see you through the lonely sky
As I begin my last journey
I can hear you through the silent clouds
And the swishing willow tears
I can feel you, your unblinking eye
My voice sinking to a whisper
I can smell you on the wings of fear
I sense you drawing near

Now I know why you came here
Now I know why I came here

I escape (I escape), I escape (I escape) from your world
Sail away (sail away), sail away (sail away) to destiny

Shadow ferryman pulling at the oars
And I swill down bitter water
To the sun I wave a last farewell
I expire, I leave no trace
My life dances truths I could not face
In the mist amid the sorrows
In the river that is without joy
My faults, they will dissolve

Now I know why you came here
Now I know why I came here

I escape (I escape), I escape (I escape) from your world
As the air (as the air) echoes all (echoes all) that you told me
I'm alive (I'm alive), I'm alive (I'm alive) in your heart
Sail away (sail away), sail away (sail away) to destiny
