The Hermit |
The mantle of attainment |
Weighs heavy on his shoulders |
Guided by a lantern |
Flickering he grows older |
A refuge found in exile |
He shuffles on in blindness |
You’ll take his hand, he’ll lose himself |
Bewildered by your kindness |
Enshrouded by darkness |
A figure slowly forms |
Through many years of banishment |
No shelter from the storm |
To find this slave of solitude |
You’ll know him by his star |
Then take his hand, he’ll lose himself |
Knowing who you are |
