I tread in brief
Through extinguished days
Till time wheels forth
And I’m doomed to comply

Peacefully I stroll
Through triumphs long- lost
In the nightfall’s pull
For the pale slate of dawn

Press on, press on
Is the cherished refrain
The unwavering ghoul
In pursuit of my steps

Press on, press on
For your ivory shores
All simmer in wait
With courage and calm
