The Spirit Of Shackleton |
| This is no exaggeration |
| I truly am alone |
| A hundred million clicks |
| And eight long months from home |
| But i’m holding to my promise |
| I’ll land and plant the flag |
| For god and corporation |
| And the greater good of man |
| There’s no law that can touch me |
| My sins are mine to keep |
| I’m a rocket, i’m an island |
| And on my shore she sleeps |
| I’m not coming back from here |
| I’ve been too far now |
| I’m cold but i’m not scared |
| In the Spirit of Shackleton |
| Pretty droplets of crimson |
| Surround me as they drift |
| Bonding together |
| Or bursting into mist |
| So i open up my mouth to them |
| And offer out my tongue |
| They are salty and sweet |
| Like the memory of love |
| I’m not coming back from here |
| I’ve been too far |
| I’m cold but i’m not scared |
| And i’m unshackled |
| I’m not coming back from here |
| I’ve been too far |
| I’m cold but i’m not scared |
| In the Spirit of Shackleton |
