North west is where I'm headin',
Underneath the golden sky,
I'm searching for wisdom,
That every man seeks to find.

I've got wicked thoughts brewing,
And the evil deeds I've done,
I'm looking for a reason,
For a reason not to run.

Because I've always been dark,
With light somewhere in the distance,
I've always been dark,
With light somewhere in the distance.

I've got no destination,
No place to call my own,
I'll explore the constellations,
To find the course I'm meant to hold,

But come fever or come famine,
Come by the winter cold,
Just put two coins upon my eyelids,
So I can pay the boatmans toll.

'Cus I've always been dark,
With light somewhere in the distance,
I've always been dark,
With light somewhere in the distance.

I've been so unforgiving,
Stranded and old traditioned,
I've always been dark,
With light somewhere in the distance,

Ohhh ohh ohhh,
Ohh ohh ohhh,
Ohh ohh ohh
Ooooohhh

I've always been dark,
With light somewhere in the distance,
I've always been dark,
With light somewhere in the distance.
With light somewhere in the distance.
