Licking Tin

Of the moments big and small
Cast eternal lines across
The ocean of lost and forgotten lives
We remember them all

When I was just a boy I heard it quite clear
Never turn your back on us and never live in fear
We believe in many things, traditions we hold dear
But all we know for sure is we die alone

So we go sailing around the world
And the blown magic stalls on for words
In the cultures we find unfurl
And we bore them with all we know

And over centuries the burden of fear
Slowly turned until replaced from travel far and near
We believed in many things, traditions we held dear
we changed them all, and still we die alone

So we go sailing around the world
And the blown magic stalls on for words
In the cultures we find unfurl
And we bore them with all we know

Of the moments big and small
Cast eternal lines across
The ocean of lost and forgotten lives
We remember them all

So we go sailing around the world
And the blown magic stalls on for words
In the cultures we find unfurl
And we bore them with all we know
