Black Box

Lady El Faro, chaos came callin'
Brewin' due north of the bow
One heard a warning, another a deadline
Their choices echo aloud

Lighthouses on the sea saw the swell, felt the breeze

Ship starts creakin', captain's caught sleepin'
Black box won't follow you
Water gets quicker, sailors get sicker
Black box won't follow you
Whispers won't follow you

Lady El Faro lies on the bedrock
Poor like a San Juan lottery
Some went out lookin' after the wind fell
Searchin' for her lost thirty-three

The wheel took a fatal turn, secrets out, live and learn

Ship starts creakin', captain's caught sleepin
Black box won't follow you
Water gets quicker, sailors get sicker
Black box won't follow you
Whispers won't follow you down

Old ghost, your voice still lingers
Victims point their fingers
Can't deny a storm
When God decides to bring her on

Ship starts creakin', captain's caught sleepin
Black box won't follow you
If you sell lies, then the company buys them
Black box won't follow you
Whispers won't follow you
Whispers won't follow you
