Silverstein - A Shipwreck In The Sand

"Once upon a time,

before the lakes and rivers were polluted,

before the animals were poached to extinction,

and before man had destroyed the earth's atmosphere,

there was a great ship.

This vessel was to venture into new waters,

to find new resources to make life easier and more enjoyable.

It was a simple mission for the crew,

who were excited to be a part of this union.

They pledged to the captain and vow to be there no matter what,

in sickness, health, and possible death.

As time passed by, there was no new land to be found.

As the days grew shorter, and the nights grew longer and colder,

the crew became more and more skeptical about the captain's vision.

Originally passionate and committed, true and faithful,

they now began to revolt."

Cross the line

I was honest and never promised anything

Just a brotherhood to stand for something

And everyone should take the lead

Follow your dreams

If you don't try you fail

And the mutiny started

And the captain was overthrown and chained

He asked them why

Their lives had changed

There's no gold to be found

No treasure in the ground

We won't die for this

We won't die for you

You've lost your mind

I was honest and never promised anything

Just a brotherhood to stand for something

And even if they disagree

Follow your dreams

If you don't try, you fail

His dream is now

A shipwreck in the sand

They gave up

Then made all their demands

The storm consumes

Fifty seven souls

Die in vain

Whose love they stole?

This union, a battle fought and lost

This union was not about the cause

This union was never about love

This union, this union

This union, a battle fought and lost

This union was not about the cause

This union was never about love

This union, this union

This union, a battle fought and lost

This union was not about the cause

This union was never about love
