Lyrics:

I travel the air, yet I cannot breathe
Where lieth my soul in this motionless breeze?
Lost in the passing of destiny
Forever to travel, yet ne'er to be free
Travel if you dare beyond the line

I travel the wave, yet I cannot be
Where lieth my soul in this waterless sea?
Barren this desert of yearning be
Forever to travel, yet ne'er to be free
Travel if you dare beyond the line

Chorus:
For I travel, yet I cannot breathe
As I sail in this waterless sea
While my soul is still lost to the breeze
In my heart I will never be free

I travel the light, yet I cannot see
Where lieth my soul in this sad destiny?
Lost in the tide of an unending sea
Forever to travel, yet ne'er to be free
Travel if you dare beyond the line

(Chorus)

I travel the line, I long to be free
I fear that my soul has a strange destiny
Where'er I follow, divided I'll be
Forever to travel, yet ne'er to be free
Travel if you dare beyond the line

(Chorus)
