\nCast your soul to the sea
\nWhen the dark night seems endless
\nPlease remember me<\/p>\n

\nOh give these clay feet wings to fly
\nTo touch the face of the stars<\/p>\n
Breathe life into this feeble heart
\nLift this mortal veil of fear
\nTake these crumbled hopes, etched with tears
\nWe’ll rise above these earthly cares<\/p>\n
