Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
Uprooted and disowned
I'm running away from something
Will sorrow be consoled?
Is there hope of overcoming?
ย
Sailed to follow the sun beyond the horizon
No port of call
Just the need for some distance
Out of sight and alone I gave up resistance
Allowed the fall
To gather strength before rising
I will not break down
I will not back down
I will not break down
I will not back down!
ย
Clear the deck, trim the sails, stem the tide
Brave the storm, ride the waves, don't subside
Time to cut the anchor free
I know I'm caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
Under the surface there's a secret you can't see
In the dark concealed
Under the surface there's a treasure you can't reach
Guarded by a beast
Burns blister my skin
Salty cracks run through my lips
Can't tame this craving
And I'm still waiting for fair wind
ย
No place I can call home
Still running away from something
Life once again postponed
No clear sign of what's forthcoming
I knew well of the risk entailed in this venture
Not all is lost
Pain turns into resilience
Persevering will be my act of defiance
At any cost
I don't know how to surrender
ย
Learn the ropes, draw the map, stars will guide
Hoist the black, sink or swim, don't collide
Cast all jetsam overboard
I know I'm caught between the devil and the ocean floor
Under the surface there's a secret you can't see
In the dark concealed
Under the surface there's a treasure you can't reach
Guarded by a beast
Heat dazing my mind
Life is heaving on a line
Can't soothe this yearning
And I'm still waiting for fair wind
