lyrics

Caught in a storm, and there's no way back from this,

The blackest eyes staring out from the abyss.

Weathered maps won't do you no good,

Only a fool would think they could.



The water turns red,

An insatiable thirst, and the more blood you give, the worse it that it gets.

The children of a disease, the way hell is paved with good intentions.

So still, the water turns.

Desperately clinging to a sinking ship,

The captain is overboard swimming with fins.



Shark attack,

They'll shred you to pieces tear you limb from limb.

Shark attack,

They'll burden your body, engulf you with sin.

This is the roll call, it's too late to swim - Death is closing in.

This is the curtain call, and now it's over let the fun begin.



Yeah! Aren't we feeling so agreeable now?

I don't know man, It's kind of hard to speak with a gag in my mouth.



It's a race to the bottom, but no one can sink to the top.

We can't make it to the shore, we're too far from the docks

This thing isn't perfect but it's all that we've got, so hey, maybe stop shooting holes in the ship?

I've grown tired of the guilt... trip.



You think we're heading to the shore,

But the only thing you're heading us off is the plank,

With the soft bigotry of low expectations.

You silence those who don't mold the same way,

Virtue signalling, you're only ever a witness to what you want to see,

A perpetual victim of identity.

In a labyrinth of suffering, we created the creature that's lurking.



There is one way back from this,

Hand in hand we’ll wade through the abyss,

Navigate the seas and the sands, the land of the damned.

The land of the damned.

Step by step, we find our way.

Step by step, we'll find our way.
