Dead Mans Sea

Feel like old boat on a dead man's sea,

With no rest before me

If the sun don't stop its burning rays,

It will surely leave its mark

It's always here,

The fortunes are still at our ease

So don't be long,

Just 'cause your heartaches are gone

So you lost all the things that were close to your heart

Like the name that was sewn on your sleeve

It's all gone away, but it's my cut feet on the ground

And i've seen it all, the one step sound

It's a battered soul crown

And now it's your cut feet on the ground

You try to look up but still fall down

And i sail on with the fish is under my skin

And the words are thrown to the wind

It's all too real, so i sail on

On to the race again,

As we learn to replace the men that we know

It wasn't supposed to be so defeating and demeaning

As our hearts are held over our heads

Pushed along the rail

Now my heart belongs to the sea, but my hands are tied to the wheel

And all i know is my bondservant soul must soon be freed

And as the flood tore into this haul,

I looked in and saw my shell fall away

'cause this world is make believe

An open eye is a window seat on a long ride back home

On to the race again,

As we learn to replace the men that we know

It wasn't supposed to be so defeating and demeaning

As our hearts are held over our heads

Pushed along the rail.
