Lyrics The Oddest Sea - The Speed of Sound in Seawater

The Oddest Sea

It’s land
at last
I see mountains
from the top mast
Land ho!
Virgin earth
untouched ground
flawless soil we’ve found
We’ll claim it
we’ll own it
the first men to know it
What’s that in the distance?
Let’s travel ashore
What are these strange ruins?
Someone’s been here before
This structure’s familiar like something I’ve seen
Inside of a nightmare or a fever dream
But the way that dream ended…
Well, nevermind
Brace yourselves, my shipmates
Unsheath your sharpened swords
But no sane man could prepare
for what was behind that door
Get in the life boat
get in the life boat, matey
I’m not a lifeguard
But you can get in my life boat, baby
