From Beyond:

• Shipwreck (Instrumental) by Circlejourney

Letra:

Letters, whose words I can't quite make out anymore
In the dust, the outline of what stood there before, and softly
Memories gathering at my feet like leaves on the floor
And I know it all too well

It is too late to say I knew
I would regret not coming through
Wasted chances, traded glances
Threatening to mean something half-true
Gathering the shards I do
Find that I hope you miss me too
But I'm learning to stop yearning
I'm better burning every last trace of you

Dark skies, I wake up and stare out the window
Even ice eventually thaws to dew below the sun and
Reveries sprout out all young and green, forgetting the snow
But the chill remains in the air
Waiting to kill all that dared to grow

It is too late to say I knew
I would regret not coming through
Wasted chances, traded glances
Threatening to mean something half-true
Gathering the shards I do
Find that I hope you miss me too
But I'm learning to stop yearning
I'm better burning every last trace of

You were my beacon through the night
Calling me homeward with your light
In the tempest, I was reckless
And I let your glow slip out of sight
And I know it's lost despite
All my attempts to set it right
It's all caving in, no use saving it
Let it sink away in the whitewash tide

You'll never know
Just turn and go

Oh, the sunlight from above will fade these marks away
All you love and don't love will wash away

It is too late to say I knew
I would regret not coming through
Wasted chances, traded glances
Threatening to mean something half-true
Gathering the shards I do
Find that I hope you miss me too
But I'm learning to stop yearning
I'm better burning every last trace of

You were my beacon through the night
Calling me homeward with your light
In the tempest, I was reckless
And I let your glow slip out of sight
And I know it's lost despite
All my attempts to set it right
It's all caving in, no use saving it
Let it sink away in the whitewash tide

Oh, the sunlight from above will fade these marks away
All you love and don't love will wash away

Circlejourney: (booklet commentary)

Here is the obligatory sea-themed track on this album!

Moving on is a common theme in songs, and I thought this made Shipwreck particularly fitting as a closer.

This was written about confronting the departure of someone who used to be an anchoring force in your life. I did have two particular people in mind when I wrote the lyrics, but the specifics of that don’t quite matter.

The vocals, being mine, are far from what I’d like them to be (and in all honesty it’s still difficult for me to share my singing voice), but I hope you like it nevertheless!
