Lyrics
We were young and brave and glorious.
We reminisce about a time when we were young, courageous, and magnificent.
We were sailing wild and heavy seas.
We navigated through challenging and tumultuous waters with a sense of freedom and intensity.
We were proud and true and powerful.
We held a sense of pride, loyalty, and strength in our endeavors.
We were riders of the salty breeze.
We were adventurers, embracing the sea breeze as riders of the waves.
No any wayfare couldn't be more conquering.
No journey seemed insurmountable, but every journey has its conclusion.
But every wayfare is coming to an end.
Despite our conquering spirit, every journey eventually comes to an end.
Here comes the fire.
A symbolic mention of impending challenges or trials represented by "fire."
Time to say goodbye.
The acknowledgment that it's time to part ways or bid farewell.
Under a coal-black sun.
A thematic reference to facing adversity or challenges symbolized by the "coal-black sun."
Here comes the fire.
The recurrence of the mention of impending challenges or transformation.
Burning in my eyes.
The fire is within, possibly signifying internal struggles or emotions.
Under a coal-black sun.
Reiteration of facing challenges under a symbolic "coal-black sun."
We got hooked and stabbed and guillotined.
Listing various hardships like being hooked, stabbed, and oppressed.
Surrounded up on beacon hill.
A specific location where challenges occurred, possibly metaphorical ("beacon hill").
We got whipped, entombed and agonized.
Reflecting on experiences of punishment, entrapment, and suffering.
But they never got to break our will.
Despite hardships, our resilience and determination remained unbroken.
No any wayfare couldn't be more conquering.
Similar to line 6, emphasizing the conquering nature of journeys.
But every wayfare is coming to an end.
The inevitability of every journey reaching its conclusion.
Far from here in another world.
A shift in perspective, indicating a distant world beyond the current challenges.
In another unknown land beyond the sea.
Describing a distant and unknown land beyond the sea, suggesting hope or a new beginning.
Far from here.
A repetition of the idea of being far from current difficulties.
We will meet again.
An optimistic anticipation of a future reunion despite the hardships.
