Lyrics Man, O Shipwreck - Attalus

Man, O Shipwreck

always searching never finding.
growing colder every mile.
life a thread that keeps unwinding on this unforgiving isle.
man o vessel lost and stranded.
how you’ve lost your innocence.
look at yourself — understand it.
you’ve been shipwrecked ever since.
shadows fall as waters rise in.
this a cruel calamity.
silhouettes on the horizon.
shadows of humanity.
man o ship without a captain.
who will clean up the debris?
look at yourself — see what happened.
Justice saw your mutiny.
but shattered sails still have their glory.
beautiful though broken art.
scattered on the rocks a story.
fragments of an Author’s heart.
man o shipwreck on the high seas.
look at yourself — see what I see.
all the things you could have been.
man o shipwreck on the high seas.
look at yourself — see what I see.
all the things you could be again.
