lyrics

No one remembers who they are
What are they praying for?
Who are they praying to?
Why are they scratching against the boards?
I hope their prayers
Aren’t answered
I think we are
Where we belong

I think that’s the shore
A perverse miracle
There’s few left to save
Quiet in the bilge
Not even a whisper
Exhale as the oars turn
They’ve gathered at the aft
To jettison all the provisions
From the bay
Now they throw themselves
Men overboard
Women overboard
Children overboard

Flesh on the cleats
Hark! We’ve caught the wind
That shore grows closer
Hark! Lamp light!
The boom swings
And a few more go over

The lines have all burned like the jib
The scratches all over the boards
Read that their prayers
Were heard
The heeling called back
The groans called back
