lyrics

Hunger and thunderclouds
Filling our heads with doubt
Out on the open seas
Maybe the land was just a dream

We’ve been so hardened now
Drifted so far from ground
I don’t remember much
About how firm it was
Maybe the earth is washed in flood

But I fought it so, knowing all I know
Faith, keep me afloat while the waves batter this boat

Fishes they called you out
Ocean it pulled you down
I won’t be led astray
Cling to this wooden frame
My only hope that I might be saved

But I fought it so, knowing all I know
Faith, keep me afloat while the waves batter this boat
Just like me to drift from the moment my eyes shift
From the dock out to the deep, ‘til the void’s all I can see

The horizon north to south is as blue as earth is brown
I would trade all I once had for my feet to feel hard ground

When I’m ashore I will get my [head right/hair dried]
