Adrift Lyrics

I have faced a hundred armies
I have been a mercenary too
Imagine taking lives with
A thousand deaths denied from you
Never going to see my country prosper
Never going to stand with brothers lost at war
Never going to taste the gift of freedom
I'm bound and shackled forevermore

The lone survivor adrift on the endless sea
The abyss beckons me...
Oh, witness!

Bodies on the ramparts
Banners stained with blood
I am cursed and deathless, the silence deafens
Fortune will provide fresh wind for my sails
Upon a lonely tide I drift home

Inside there is a yearning
To embrace the ground with open arms
Never going to gaze into the eyes
Of mercy, splendor, grace, or lore

The lone survivor adrift on the endless sea
The abyss beckons me...
Oh, witness!

Bodies on the ramparts
Banners stained with blood
I am cursed and deathless, the silence deafens
Fortune will provide fresh wind for my sails
Upon a lonely tide I drift home

The waves roll on...
...and everything I've lost is swallowed whole

SOLO: WRIGHT

The lone survivor adrift on the endless sea
The abyss beckons me...
Oh, witness!

Bodies on the ramparts
Banners stained with blood
I am cursed and deathless, the silence deafens
Fortune will provide fresh wind for my sails
Upon a lonely tide I drift home
