Brother Craig`s Lost At Sea Lyrics

Lost At Sea Lyrics

Floating like driftwood

Enslaved by the sea

Resolutely refusing to die

Without amnesty



He’s tossed by the waves

He’s all out of flares

Nobody saves

Nobody cares

Dehydrated lips speak words of despair

In unanswered prayer



Amidst a sea of words (amidst a sea of words)

He only hears the sound of sea birds

Who only whisper of a world beyond the waves

And all those points of light (all those points of light)

The gently winking stars of night

Not out of sight but still his eyes are glazed



And though his eyes perforate the horizon

He still can't find escape from his world

He lifts his head in unwanted motion

But he can't see himself tonight

Just broken starlight

And waves



Stupid yet headstrong

She stands on the beach

She’s calling his name out

But he doesn't hear her voice from where

His vessel so small

Boat’s bullied by waves

To nowhere at all

Dehydrated lips speak words of despair

In unanswered prayer



Amidst a sea of words (amidst a sea of words)

He only hears the sound of sea birds

Who only whisper of a world beyond the waves

And all those points of light (all those points of light)

The gently winking stars of night

Not out of sight but still his eyed are glazed



Keep calling his name

Keep calling perhaps he'll hear you

Keep calling his name

Maybe now he's not the one



The one who’s exiled from the world of you and me

The one who can't be reached, the one who's lost at sea

The one whose social skills have gone to atrophy

The one who drifts apart, the one who's lost at sea

The one who’s lost at sea . . .



Floating like driftwood
