The Great Exchange |
I crewed on a fair golden ship that |
Went down at the dawn of the world |
We mutinied had sentenced our captain to die |
'Fore our sails had barely unfurled |
We sank shortly after our riot |
Wanton flames and our powder kegs met |
While I swam for my life became voices aloft |
Joyful, unearthly and dread |
Singing of a violent |
Tireless mystery |
That one would give his life |
To save his enemies |
Too bone tired to keep my arms moving |
To swim or even grasp out to straws |
Undertow drew me down into its cold |
And infinite, indigo jaws |
I was singing of a violent |
Tireless mystery |
That one would give his life |
To save his enemies |
Thought I must be dead or dreaming |
When my captain still battered, betrayed |
Pulled me up, laid me over the beam he clung to Breathed his last and sank under the waves |
Your body is a bridge |
Across an endless sea |
Your body is a bridge |
Across an endless sea |
