The ghost ships sails the ocean
Sailing unknown waters bereft of life
The harbours are devoid of life
Apart from a skeleton staff
Whose job it is to serve the ghost ships
That sail the oceans
So many souls searching for a final resting place
Unable to find peace
They congregate on these ghost ships
Even in death there is comfort in numbers
Sometimes we feel so alone
And to die without a soul to share our last moments
Is a challenging prospect
Every know and then a lost soul finds peace
And is allowed to disembark
Sail on in search of peace and tranquillity
The waves of the ocean help to soothe the restless spirits
They have no home apart from these ghost ships
They sail through endless darkness
The light is too much to deal with
These spirits have rejected human contact
They cannot cope with the troubled history
They wait until the matter is resolved elsewhere
Time passes and perspectives change
Redemption does come calling from time to time
If you buy a ticket on the ghost ship
You may never find peace again
Sailing the oceans for thousands of years
Hoping to find safe passage to some distant shore
And finally finding your way to heaven
Where eternal peace and salvation await
