Artifact Pirate - Echoes of a Fading Past Lyrics

In fleeting arms, we lose our way
What is it that we crave each day?
Flesh-bound thrills or love long gone
A fragile flame we leaned upon
Every dawn, we search, we yearn
For solace past each twisted turn
But shadows chase, they hold us fast
We wear the scars of the past
Artifact Pirate, just a sign
A fleeting ghost through space and time
Leading where we can't define
A lost horizon, undefined
Haunted whispers, deep, profound
Echoes buried, yet still found
Bullets can't erase the threat
Who can kill what hearts forget?
If only we could rise, take flight
Feel weightless, soaring out of sight
Would I still be bound right here
A spark awaiting skies to clear?
Artifact Pirate, just a sign
A fleeting ghost through space and time
Leading where we can't define
A lost horizon, undefined
Do you want to be the spark I need
Light the fuse, fulfill the creed?
I'm set to rise, to leave the ground
No landing place, no ties to bound
What can we vow, what truth remains
When minds are locked in fragile chains?
Battered thoughts against the wall
Hoping one might break them all
Artifact Pirate, just a sign
A fleeting ghost through space and time
Leading where we can't define
A lost horizon, undefined
Deep inside, we know no more
Freedom's just an empty door
Illusions carved with fragile grace
Fading echoes we can't trace
I'll feel the wind, cold and true
Proof I exist, though passing through
