Lyrics
Looking out, looking up
I still can't find where I once was
Now I'm lost, hurricane
So many dreams like stormy weather
You thought it was hard for you
But it might be worse for me
Sailing in to desperate waters
and great catastrophe
Driftin free the wind blowing ships on the sea
Torn to shreds, shrouded masts
Silent heartbreak, clouded pasts
Broken chains where anchors laid
Misty skies, the oceans of regret
You know it was hard to do
For a moment the impossible seems
So much like our real existence
But I never did awake from that dream
Driftin free the wind blowing ships on the sea
Looking out looking up
I never found where I once sailed from
What is this surrounding me?
An earthly body, a ship at sea?
Sailing out for mythic harbors
My insecurities are pulling me down
I run aground
No grand philosophies can help me now
I'm driftin I'm lost at sea
