Northwest is where I´m headed,
Underneath the golden sky
I´m searching for a wisdom
That every man seeks to find
I´ve got wicked thoughts a brewin´
Many even deeds I´ve done
I´m looking for a reason
For a reason not to run

I´ve always been dark
With light somewhere in the distance

I´ve always been dark
With light somewhere in the distance

I´ve got no destination
No place to call my own
I´ll explore the constellations
Till I find the course I mean to hone
But come fever or come famine
Come the biting winter cold
Just put two coins upon my eyelids
So I can pay the poor man´s toll

I´ve always been dark
With light somewhere in the distance

I´ve always been dark
With light somewhere in the distance

I´ve been so unforgiving
Stranded in old traditions

I´ve always been dark
With light somewhere in the distance

I´ve always been dark
With light somewhere in the distance
