Tight Ship
In the ocean, how have we lost our way
To find along the trail a trial beyond our sails
In the ocean, how have we lost our way
In time the storm will fade
We fight to hold our place
How long have we been on this journey
Memories fail, the image is dirty
Vision is blurry
Can I get a grip on the earth
And sit where it's sturdy
Didn't occur to me
I'd forgotten the path's not properly mapped
It's choppy, I'm onto the obvious dance
Revisiting battles I've won in the past
I want to relax
Want to loosen my grip, I want to collapse
I want to give way to the waves
I want them to take me away
Don't want to come back
So what is the chance I'll reach where I've got to be
One man to compete with an odyssey
Same storms will repeat so commonly
How many times can I beat those off of me
Well, if I've done it before I could do it again
If I came all the way to this place
Then I may as well take it all through to the end
So what's another tide
Am I going to let it win when I've come to fight
Knowing where I've been through the troubled times
When I could come alive, knowing that there's something
On the other side
So we run a tight ship to last
'Til we light up the sky of a distant land
And the wind attacks, when it kicks and jabs
You'd better brace those bones and fix the mast
Keep strict through it
You need all your strength and your tact and your faith
And your wit through it
The sea's hip to it
It'll take your weight, so lean into it
In the ocean, how have we lost our way
To find along the trail a trial beyond our sails
In the ocean, how have we lost our way
In time the storm will fade
We fight to hold our place
The pain to hold on through this wave
When all your bones can break
Will show you're on your way
You're so strong
In the ocean, how have we lost our way
To find along the trail a trial beyond our sails
In the ocean, how have we lost our way
In time the storm will fade
We fight to hold our place
To find along the trail a trial beyond our sails
In the ocean, how have we lost our way
In time the storm will fade
We fight to hold our place
How long have we been on this journey
Memories fail, the image is dirty
Vision is blurry
Can I get a grip on the earth
And sit where it's sturdy
Didn't occur to me
I'd forgotten the path's not properly mapped
It's choppy, I'm onto the obvious dance
Revisiting battles I've won in the past
I want to relax
Want to loosen my grip, I want to collapse
I want to give way to the waves
I want them to take me away
Don't want to come back
So what is the chance I'll reach where I've got to be
One man to compete with an odyssey
Same storms will repeat so commonly
How many times can I beat those off of me
Well, if I've done it before I could do it again
If I came all the way to this place

Will show you're on your way
You're so strong
In the ocean, how have we lost our way
To find along the trail a trial beyond our sails
In the ocean, how have we lost our way
In time the storm will fade
We fight to hold our place
