TIED TO THE MAST

Tied to the mast

Wreckless and bent

Tonight the crow

Flies the nest

I will stay here

Tied to the wreck

Under blue sky

My heart is kept

I keep empty pockets

For runaway dreams

The things I can't hold

In my hands

I mourn the sky

I miss the sea

Under the willows

I stand

The clouds in the sky

Remind me that I

Have a long way

To climb

Tied to the mast

My life has been spent

I hold my dreams

In my hands.
