Build for me your tightest ship
make the oars run swift and fast.
Send me out your strongest crew
make their hearts and minds steadfast,
Bless me with Athena
there's no meaner, she's the best.
For when we hit the roughest seas
we'll need all we can get.

You say "sink or swim"
what a cruel, cruel phrase
I'd rather fly
don't want to be caught in this endless race

The first beast that will appear
will entice us with money and fame.
If you listen long enough
you'll forget there's anything else.
Tie me to the mast
of this ship and of this band.
Tie me to the greater things
the people that I love.

You can walk the plank
do the dead mans float
Never let them see
your heart is pounding full of hope.

Let the last storm hit us
let it strike at the hardest part.
Turn us all to mutiny
turn this boat upside down.
I am not the captain
I am just another fan.
Sailing off the edge of truth
into the end of you.

Eye of the storm
what a cruel, cruel myth
There's no bigger spotlight
than shown on the ones brave enough to live.

The end of you, end of you, end of you,
I've been looking for you
The end of you, end of you, end of you,
I've been looking for you
