about

Fools ship is the sixth track of Stars of Atlas.
Fools ship is a song describing the journey of the human spirit as it embarks on a path of self realization within the infinite realm we inhabit.

lyrics

We float upon the fool's ship
Emotions and actions are our correspondence
Messages in a bottle
Derail our consciousness
Well some are cannons
While others are merely captives
And if you jump overboard, you will cease to exist
Our names are written upon the passenger list
We play our roles if only to persist
Knowing that our mystery is reveal in bondage
Knowing that my mystery is revealed in bondage
I'm laying in the open water
Heaven is above me
Hell is far under honey
And what shall we discover
All these treasures are empty
So I am sailing farther
In the middle of serenity
There lay a diamond fountain
Blood was flowing rather readily
Reminded me of my ancient ancestry
Those that have lived and have died before me
They alone hold the key to eternity
The question remains, girl with you dance with me
To the notes of this makeshift universe
We pretend all day, all we do is rehearse
I'm laying in the open water
Heaven is above me
Hell is far under honey
And what shall we discover
All these treasures are empty
So I am sailing farther
All the bandits and the lawyers
The prostitutes and the priests
The barters as well as the thieves
Well they all sit upon the same feasting table
Laughing and crying, spill fable after fable
All are subjected to the same crucible
Adhering to principles that their opposites ridicules
For this environment is taunting and daunting
The past, present and future are always intertwining
Yet in truth we are merely subjects
That inhabit the vessel known as the fools ship
I'm laying in the open water
Heaven is above me
Hell is far under honey
And what shall we discover
All these treasures are empty
So I am sailing farther
