Description
This song was concieved about a year before I came to MJ and recorded off and on over the last year. It never felt complete so with the help of Andrew Lack (Alackbass) I think it is as done as it will get. The lyrics are a little too deep for rock and roll but I always say, "Why edit what makes it me?".

Lyrics
That day has come to me
Washed over completely
And when it's gone from me
When the sun sets to sea
When the night grips tightly
And pulls stars from beneath
Placid sheets of dark drink
That is when my heart sinks
With my hope of sweet dreams
tossed to the salty tides
To wave's relentless drive
and the sands, by and by
Forever torn from me
I sail amongst the swells
astride the unruly
In search of far off lands
Long lost in deepest blue
Eventually ending
My weary search for you
When the shadows cry out
From blackest mists of prey
When creeping falls in doubt
From grave, from horrors scowl
Will your reach out to me
In the wake of the swift
On breaks of golden shore
By melancholy moon
Will you take my cold hand
And swoon this broken man
Child of the forgotten
Can you forgive my wiles
mend my castaway heart
Whose soul is guilt trodden
Now worn and lap sodden
A feeble foe, no more
oh please wont you accept my apology
Washed over completely
And when it's gone from me
When the sun sets to sea
When the night grips tightly
And pulls stars from beneath
Placid sheets of dark drink
That is when my heart sinks
With my hope of sweet dreams
tossed to the salty tides
To wave's relentless drive
and the sands, by and by
Forever torn from me
I sail amongst the swells
astride the unruly
In search of far off lands
Long lost in deepest blue
Eventually ending
My weary search for you
When the shadows cry out
From blackest mists of prey
When creeping falls in doubt
From grave, from horrors scowl
Will your reach out to me
In the wake of the swift
On breaks of golden shore
By melancholy moon
Will you take my cold hand
And swoon this broken man
Child of the forgotten
Can you forgive my wiles
mend my castaway heart
Whose soul is guilt trodden
Now worn and lap sodden
A feeble foe, no more
oh please wont you accept my apology

Love it. It needs to be said, all I did was contribute a single guitar riff. But I've never had an opportunity to rock this hard. Thanks for letting me play a small role in this very cool track.
