lyrics

Let’s put this city in our rear view
It’s just another character in a story
That never really meant much of anything
Well there’s a red sky tonight
That reflects off your eyes
Don’t you dare look back
We’re leaving all that past behind

We sail without anchors
On these endless seas
The line of the horizon
Is all we’ll ever need
We’ve no need for swallows
Tattooed ink, to carry us home
May the sharks take our bodies
The devil can take our souls

Place a silver coin under the masthead
And pour some wine out on the deck
All the dead we’ve left behind
Are the gulls flying in our wake
Keep the feather of a wren slain
On a new year’s day
On a string around your neck
We’ve got some storms ahead
And if we all
Held to the course we’re born with
We would never learn
What adventure really meant

We sail without anchors
On these endless seas
The line of the horizon
Is all we’ll ever need
We’ve no need for swallows
Tattooed ink, to carry us home
May the sharks take our bodies
The devil can take our souls

We’re deaf to the sirens
That threaten to draw us off course
Focused on Polaris
On and on into the dawn
We’re deaf to the sirens
That threaten to draw us off course
Focused on Polaris
On and on into the dawn
