| An aimless wanderer
|
| He was summoned to the king
|
| Sail no longer, for this treasure that you claim
|
| Warrants death a thousand times
|
| (What you waste I will restore)
|
| Endless debts for countless crimes
|
| (And I’ll give you so much more)
|
| Never have I held such beauty in my hands
|
| I should’ve died, as the written law demands
|
| Yet I’m set to sail anew
|
| (And this vessel stays secure)
|
| A different shore I’m sailing to
|
| (With this gift I can endure)
|
| Why give this give this gift to such a man like me?
|
| I’m a lying crook and a selfish thief
|
| Yes I’m nothing and it’s truly free
|
| I’m amazed that it shook far beyond belief
|
| In this sea I’m sailing
|
| There are so many threats to be faced
|
| There are few trailing
|
| For this trek is dubbed a waste
|
| Many that have crossed the sea
|
| (Turned and headed back ashore)
|
| They’ll ask my course and disagree
|
| (Screaming, waste your time no more)
|
| All the things I once could afford
|
| (I will die before this prize)
|
| Ruined by the sight of more
|
| (When such beauty struck my eyes)
|
| I wept and cried as I heard their screams
|
| To reject a gift well beyond their dreams
|
| Yes I’m nothing and it’s truly free
|
| That is why I sail out upon the sea
|
| Still I hear the crying now
|
| (There's no reward)
|
| Afraid to die to cast their doubt
|
| (Headed overboard)
|
| Still I hear them yell and shout
|
| (Waste your time no more)
|
| Don’t linger this day just trails
|
| (Waste your time no more)
|
| Drink back up tell yourself
|
| (Waste your time no more)!
|
| You call it a waste, you call it a waste
|
| (What a shame, your ship is breaking)
|
| You call it a waste, I call it grace
|
| You call it a waste, you call it a waste
|
| (Why give this give this gift to such a man like me?
|
| I’m a lying crook and a selfish thief)
|
| You call it a waste, I call it grace
|
| (Yes I’m nothing and it’s truly free
|
| I’m amazed that it shook far beyond belief) |
