| Song | The Hermit |
| Artist | Steve Hackett |
| Album | Voyage Of The Acolyte |
| 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 |
