|
Periscope extends the lens |
|
Veiney hands can't mend |
|
Your broken little babies remains |
|
We all fall to bits just the same |
|
Eyes down for a full house |
|
Yeah, I love you long time |
|
They christened me |
|
Just to give me name |
|
Now I know that I'm to blame |
|
There was no man in his eyes |
|
And no lights to beam home those ships |
|
Can't even extend out his arm |
|
To go and cash in his chips |
|
I wish that I could not so rightly place this |
|
But least I can say that I was there |
|
That I witnessed his demise |
|
But you my lucky son |
|
Because of your size |
|
You would not remember |
|
This has sent your only son |
|
To an early grave |
|
What you thought was an accident |
|
Was deliberate |
|
There was a twitch in his hand |
|
As I offered him mine |
|
But our captain only cared about his crew |
|
But you would not remember, would you? |
|
And when that time does come, my brother |
|
And I should offer you my hand |
|
You'll know just what to do |
|
What not to put me through |
|
You must remember |
|
Come your expiration |
|
Come your sell by date |
|
And there is no companion |
|
It'll be too late |
|
All this misfortune is punishment |
|
He sings of gods that desert him |
|
He falls again but undeterred |
|
He hides from the light |
