[edit] Song meaning
The Lighthouse's Tale is about a lighthouse, the keeper, and his wife. The lighthouse serves as a narrator to tell how the keeper married a woman who later sailed in a fierce storm. The next day, the keeper finds that she had died and promises he will soon be with her. He buries her and then sacrifices his life for her.
