ALBATROSS

ALBATROSS

Sins can’t be scratched in the sand
No merciful tides wash away
The darkness will not dissipate
Upon the arrival of light of day

CHORUS
So heavy it weighs
The albatross
Is yours to claim…

Hope does not make anchors float
No sign of a ship sent to save
The last trace of life to be had
Was cast to the depths of a watery grave

CHORUS
So heavy it weighs
The albatross
Is yours to hang
To hang…

Forever the fool has been lured
By sirens who call from the waves
The promise is left unfulfilled
And dashed into splinters by rocks in the fray

CHORUS
So heavy it weighs
The albatross
Is yours to claim
So heavy, so heavy
So heavy it weighs…

Drowning,
You’re drowning alone
Drowning,
Going under alone
