A Stroll Along the Shoreline Songtext
von On the Loose

Death
To you a gift I bring
The end of suffering
The snuffing of the fire
The rest that you require
When everything was done
It was placed upon my hand
And I′m the only one
Who will be there in the end

Traveller
A visitor appeared
As waves crashed on the shore
It stroke me weird
The dark cloak that she wore
And the countenance she bore, as she said

Hand in hand we'll go
My friend I′m not your foe
I'll set you free tonight
Along the shoreline


Traveller
I joined her by her side
As if she were my guide
The rhythm of the sea
Withheld the mystery
Like a heartbeat of the Earth
Whose life one cannot know
Like death followed by birth
In an all eternal flow

Death
Engulfed in murk
We beheld the Devil's work
As we walked upon the sand
His wings covered the land
I′ve roamed in every street
I open every door
Before it′s time to sleep
Let's go, let′s walk some more

Death and the Traveller
The coward and the brave
Will end inside a grave
And the night will follow day
For life is just a wave
That comes and goes away

Hand in hand we'll go
