Compass Rose

from Still Life by The New Warden

/

lyrics

Plot your course, set your sail for exotic winds across the waves
Dreaming of distant shores, wanna leave the sands of home
One things for sure, you're gonna sail these seas alone

Rope 'em in, tie them up and take the wheel
take the cargo and detach, it doesn't matter how you feel
Cast my luck to the briny deeps, let the currents carry me
one things for sure, gonna sail these seas alone

You've succumbed to the Siren's song
You'll be lost before too long
You'll be lost

Should you find yourself marooned with only drink to keep you sane
dreaming of familiar faces, but the details smudge by the sponge of memory
and you long for home again, wish you remembered the way
one things for sure, gonna sail these seas alone

I hope you keep this compass close to your chest when you sail these seas alone

You've succumbed to the Siren's song
You'll be lost before too long
You'll be lost
You'll be lost
