lyrics

There's incredible horrors
They're just out of reach
There's no woman or man
Who can claim their defeat

You can pray for salvation
Or pray for relief
But there's no way of stopping
The things we unleashed

There's vultures above
And there's monsters beneath
A gargling noise
Rising up from the deep

And it's calling me

Father please save us
From what we have done
The Heavens are falling
And demons now come

There's no time to waiver
There's nowhere to run
All of the things we created
Are gone

They're circling up high
Watching over the waves
The vultures swoop in
Carried on by the gales

As we're setting sail

We're sailing off
(We're sailing off)
Ooooh oooh
By the pale light of the moon
(Here we go)
We're sailing off
(We're sailing off)
Oooo ooooh
And we're bound
We're bound
We're bound to get there

We're sailing off
(We're sailing off)
Ooooh oooh
By the pale light of the moon
(Here we go)
We're sailing off
(We're sailing off)
Oooo ooooh
And we're bound
We're bound
We're bound to get there

Soon we'll be safe
There's a haven in sight
When out of the blue
Comes a fierce beam of white

It tears off the hull
Sets the mainsails alight
The vultures cry out
As we
Drift
In
To
The
Night

The Northwinds
That brought us here
Will now guide us home

In the shadow
Of a seabound life
We'll never be alone

We're sailing off
(We're sailing off)
Ooooh oooh
By the pale light of the moon
(Here we go)
We're sailing off
(We're sailing off)
Oooo ooooh
And we're bound
We're bound
We're bound to get there

We're sailing off
(We're sailing off)
Ooooh oooh
By the pale light of the moon
(Here we go)
We're sailing off
(We're sailing off)
Oooo ooooh
And we're bound
We're bound
We're bound to get there
Soon.
