Lyrics

We sail across the sea,

We embark on a journey across the sea.

In our thoughts we float over mountains

Mentally transcending obstacles like mountains.

All this vanity that we could hide

Concealing superficial or false appearances.

The truth

Expressing honesty or reality.


The truth is to be alive

Real truth lies in being alive.

And to live your life in fear by hate

Living one’s life in fear due to hatred.

And create our own gods

Creating personal beliefs or deities.


We all ourselves are created

Humans are self-fashioned.

Our own images

We form ourselves in our own likeness.

Ourselves we are created

Reiterating the concept of self-creation.

Our own gods

Creating personal deities or ideals.


In the misty morning

Depicting a hazy, unclear time.

When the sun is rising,

Symbolizing a new beginning or awakening.

When the whole sky is red like blood

Symbolic of a world in turmoil or conflict.

Man can realize the real meaning of life

Understanding life’s true purpose.

To love and respect your life

To cherish and honor one’s own life.


Your salvation,

Questioning whether one's choices lead to salvation or damnation.

Or is just your damnation


We all ourselves

Humans are fundamentally responsible for their own existence.
