The Lighthouse & the Sailor
There is a beacon
A lighthouse that's broken
That stands on the point
In the bay
It promises harbor
To all those who wander
But its rock-strewn shore
Is unsafe
They train up good sailors
To warn of the dangers
Of monsters that traverse the deep
But they fail to make sure
That once you reach their shore
The wayward are greeted with peace
There was a sailor
Who entered the shadowy
Wasteland that stretched
From the beach
The shipman looked down
In the boat he was sailing
And noticed that
There was a leak
So he stepped from the boat
And stayed strangely afloat
As he walked on the water to seek
All the lost and endangered
The outcast and stranger
And taught them to stand on the sea
When the sailor returned
From his journey they heard
All his ragged and rough company
The beacon was dim
Didn't recognize him
And they banished them all to the deep
A lighthouse that's broken
That stands on the point
In the bay
It promises harbor
To all those who wander
But its rock-strewn shore
Is unsafe
They train up good sailors
To warn of the dangers
Of monsters that traverse the deep
But they fail to make sure
That once you reach their shore
The wayward are greeted with peace
There was a sailor
Who entered the shadowy
Wasteland that stretched
From the beach
The shipman looked down
In the boat he was sailing
And noticed that
There was a leak
So he stepped from the boat
And stayed strangely afloat
As he walked on the water to seek
All the lost and endangered
The outcast and stranger
And taught them to stand on the sea
When the sailor returned
From his journey they heard
All his ragged and rough company
The beacon was dim
Didn't recognize him
And they banished them all to the deep
