pattern-seeking animals - lifeboat كلمات الأغنية

i. nearer now to heaven

(instrumental)

ii. fitful dreams

fitful dreams of drowning in my sleep
thrashing in the darkness of the deep
gasping, never knowing if i’d breathe again
sirens from the surface as the ship began to shake
i was cast into this nightmare wide awake

everyone on the lifeboat, the ship is going down
the captain left the bridge and now he’s nowhere to be found
pray for every soul again, we’ll walk on solid ground
everyone on the lifeboat, the ship is going down

listing hard the first mate took the helm
ever unprepared and overwhelmed
destined by three fates to fail _ “we’re doomed” he cried
nearer now to heaven, i’m a man of mortal sin
i’m afraid that god will never let me in

everyone on the lifeboat, the ship is going down
the captain left the bridge and now he’s nowhere to be found
pray for every soul again, we’ll walk on solid ground
everyone on the lifeboat, the ship is going down
iii. dull the sword of damocles

a promise of adventure so i went to sea
to reinvent my destiny
i disavowed my demons
but they followed me

on a voyage to the dark side
some are willing, some are shanghaied
every ripple hides a riptide unforeseen
fate’s a cruel machine
time’s the enemy
as i wait

god, dull the sword of damocles
they will hunt me down, lord help me please
i am on my knees and praying
there’s a hole in my heart that is shaped like you
hold it up to the light, you can see right through
i was only trying to hide, i wasn’t straying

living in the past where the rent was cheap
my goals were shallow but my gene pool deep
guess i missed the news one morning
i was fast asleep
what had started as a cold war
heated quickly with an uproar
soldiers settling an old score mercilessly
h_llish harmony
will they come for me
as i wait

iv. never more than human

maybe there is no tomorrow
god is testing my belief
endless seas, impending sorrow
death may be my last relief

now i drift a lowly crewman
i was destined by my birth
to be never more than human
i was bound unto this earth
save me
save me

i was young, in need of answers
asked my father for advice
life, he said, is taking chances
if you don’t, boy, best think twice

ebbing waves, embracing violence
heartened by my hopes of land
rowing like a ghost in silence
praying soon my oars touch sand

save me
save me

now i drift a lowly crewman
i was destined by my birth
to be never more than human
i was bound unto this earth

save me
save me

v. what happens when you die

maybe no one’s left to rescue me
overhead the storm clouds won’t recede
trying to believe but i just can’t pretend
twilight at the end, the northern lights dance across the sky
i don’t want to know what happens when you die

will i be forgotten evermore?
will i walk on heaven’s golden shore?
angels offer comfort as a calm descends
twilight at the end, the northern lights dance across the sky
i don’t want to know what happens when you die

twilight at the end, the northern lights dance across the sky
i don’t want to know what happens when you die
twilight at the end, the northern lights dance across the sky
i don’t want to know what happens when you die
