The New Breed
Thrive, young sailor
Don't listen to the words they preach
The waves won't collapse if you follow
You follow the light instead of your head
The Priest, he waved you from the harbour with a warm smile
And then he turned his back
And he told us, he told us to mourn for your lost soul
But he won't
Bring me down
There's no room for foul mouth preachers on hallowed ground
(He's gotta leave this town)
You're not the one we need
Your words, they sound like nothing but madness
And we've gotta have faith the new breed
Strive, wanderer
Try not to laugh at the times when the disbelievers
Told us, they told us the storm could never bring you home
Bricks and mortar can't keep this vessel in between salt and sunshine
You put your faith in the fragile
And those families back home
They're surrounded by wolves and they'll never know
They seem saints
When the water turns wine
But there's bitter smiles
In wolves' eyes
You're not the one we need
Your words, they sound like nothing but madness
And we've gotta have faith the new breed
You're not the one we need
Your words, they sound like nothing but madness
And we've gotta have faith the new breed
Ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh
We've gotta have faith in the new breed
The new breed
We've gotta have faith in the new breed
The new breed
Yeah
We've gotta have faith in the new breed
Don't listen to the words they preach
The waves won't collapse if you follow
You follow the light instead of your head
The Priest, he waved you from the harbour with a warm smile
And then he turned his back
And he told us, he told us to mourn for your lost soul
But he won't
Bring me down
There's no room for foul mouth preachers on hallowed ground
(He's gotta leave this town)
You're not the one we need
Your words, they sound like nothing but madness
And we've gotta have faith the new breed
Strive, wanderer
Try not to laugh at the times when the disbelievers
Told us, they told us the storm could never bring you home
Bricks and mortar can't keep this vessel in between salt and sunshine
You put your faith in the fragile
And those families back home
They're surrounded by wolves and they'll never know
They seem saints
When the water turns wine
But there's bitter smiles
In wolves' eyes
You're not the one we need
Your words, they sound like nothing but madness
And we've gotta have faith the new breed
You're not the one we need
Your words, they sound like nothing but madness
And we've gotta have faith the new breed
Ohh, ohh
Ohh, ohh
We've gotta have faith in the new breed
The new breed
We've gotta have faith in the new breed
The new breed
Yeah
We've gotta have faith in the new breed
