Battered and broken but we are still buoyant, my friends Take time to laugh about failure and untimely ends Climb over the bad days and trade all the nightmares for light And everything, everything is all right
We travel in circles, intent on retracing the lines Until someone breaks it and stretches it out into time Fear is a compass, your courage creates a new road And out on the wire, we try and ignore what’s below
Eroded memories populate darkness with ghosts So we take a drink of the moon as it lights up the coast We dream of the ones who we miss when the sun bows its head And promise ourselves we’ll meet them again when this ends
We're caught in the middle of something we can’t escape And we know nothing about I shed the shackles and chains But a prisoner’s mind is a darkening cloud I crossed a river and clung to a tree Then I swam in a sea of self doubt Now I lay my head in the sand A shipwrecked man
Save me or give me my own means This water and sand are all that I am Maybe I’m blessed Save me or give me my own means This water and sand are all that I am A shipwrecked man
