Foreign Harbours 歌詞

Through the murkiest of waters you would never hesitate to swim In budding innocence a breath of sweeter air it did me bring Once so green so green so green around the gills No chasm dark enough to hinder you from plunging headlong in Today the crystal pool has clouded little left to say We navigate through murky waters poles poles poles apart I cannot change the way that time has played a hand in forming this our fate Nor trim the weeds that clog and choke the flow once pure Shored up shored up shored up in foreign harbours now Docked in at quays from which there can be no escape Each to our not so supple virtue we do cling From foreign harbours we each seek seek seek the final word Oh foreign harbours now In truth our legacy will have the final say Time she'll show whether they'll sink or they will swim We bear the scars of those before us A procession without end A silver chord that binds nobility to sin Shored up shored up shored up in foreign harbours now Docked in at quays from which there can be no escape Each to our not so supple virtue we do cling From foreign harbours we each seek seek seek the final word Oh foreign harbours now Shored up shored up shored up in foreign harbours now Docked in at quays from which there can be no escape Each to our oh so brittle versions do we cling From foreign harbours we still seek seek seek the final word Oh foreign harbours now
