LYRICS
SAILOR
Crimson button’s glowlight strike
Beneath the clouds we’re alright
Start the ship turn the wheel
Cleave the air in which we deal
Cryptic crosswinds catch the sails
A lover’s touch that never fails
Captain cutlass a pirate’s dream
In stealing feelers shadows lean
Sailing on an inner sea
What you are is what you’ll be
Swimming in the world’s duress
Drowning us in lies and stress
Sailing on an inner sea
What you are is what you’ll be
Swimming in the world’s duress
Drowning us in lies and stress
Sailing on an inner sea
What you are is what you’ll be
Swimming in the world’s duress
Drowning us in lies and stress
Diamond dolphins leap and sway
Crested wave-tops gold and grey
Curling lightships invert the sky
Mirrored bright in moonlit eyes
Sawtooth martyrs in basking shoals
Roll over bibles of night black coals
Silver sextant breaking shells
Steering courses on the edge of Hell
Sailing on an inner sea
What you are is what you’ll be
Swimming in the world’s duress
Drowning us in lies and stress
Sailing on an inner sea
What you are is what you’ll be
Swimming in the world’s duress
Drowning us in lies and stress
Sailing on an inner sea
What you are is what you’ll be
Swimming in the world’s duress
Drowning us in lies and stress
Darkened triremes cross my dreams
Rowed by many ghostly teams
Splash and crash to reach the land
Until they’re beached upon the sand
Storms imprint upon the sky
They frighten those who don’t know why
Boiling clouds of blue and black
I can stop them coming back
Sailing on an inner sea
What you are is what you’ll be
Swimming in the world’s duress
Drowning us in lies and stress
Sailing on an inner sea
What you are is what you’ll be
Swimming in the world’s duress
Drowning us in lies and stress
Sailing on an inner sea
What you are is what you’ll be
Swimming in the world’s duress
Drowning us in lies and stress
Black Lady by @maurofiligheddu
