Lyrics The Mariner - Christian Kjellvander

I'm leaving my pasture
And heading for something better
Go to bed with the nightfall
And awake with the sun
Heartbeat is slower
And I only drink some

Grew up with two dreamers
There was smoke everywhere
And as I grew real, the smoke seemed to clear
Doors were always open
Not just to let the sun in
If you want that type of hoping
It's god, drugs or running

There was a death
The time that came after
Every single breath
One heartbeat from disaster
So I started singing louder than I'd done
And I started digging more than just for fun

And made a living out of barely succeeding
Read Joan Didion and felt done with reading
There's always trouble lurking and bad news will come
But until that morning

There are mornings to be won
And the day is a burning sun
And I'll quit when I'm done

And I'm not a Mariner
Nor am I a Captain

Cast away! For our sake!
Cast away! Put the past away - in it's place!
Cast away!

It's easy
Just let go
Always a pleasure
No one will know
