lyrics

cast away in salt spray
no I don't wanna be
I don't want to see it yet
between the lines an absence of style
between the earth and the sky
it goes for miles

said you'd wait
said you'd stay
called it fate
you said a lot that day

name them
bury them
to each his own
come here partisan
I'll show you the road
show you the road

far above the clouds and all
even the strongest fall
the ocean drowns us all

I sail with the black ships
soulless armada
stalking the life and the light up on shore
respect was demanded
forgiveness longed for
set sail in April
forgotten by fall

where will it end
where will it end
where will it end
where will it end
where will it end
