Lasting Traces memento

I've sacrificed my dreams to cast anchor at the calm sea.
My fate is sealed once I close my eyes. Is there anything left for me?
No, no there's nothing left except for grey thoughts from the time
we left behind a long time ago. Yeah, yeah it's just a line in the sand
and not written in stone. There‘s nothing left so I'm floating here alone.
Now it doesn't matter that a storm is brewing on the horizon – It comes
for me. It seems I won't be more than a single page in a random book.
Is there anything left for me?
No, no there's nothing left except for grey thoughts from the time
we left behind a long time ago. Yeah, yeah it's just a line in the sand
and not written in stone. There‘s nothing left so I'm floating here alone.
I wanna leave a memento to posterity. I just wanna be more than ash and dust.
