Stormalong

Captain Alfred Bulltop Stormalong was an American folk hero and the subject of numerous nautical-themed tall tales originating in Massachusetts. Stormalong was said to be a sailor and a giant, some 30 feet (9.1 m) tall; he was the master of a huge clipper ship known in various sources as either the Courser or the Tuscarora, a ship purportedly so tall that it had hinged masts to avoid catching on the Moon. more »

He ran, he ran
In hope to catch
The ship called youth
"A man, Be a man"
They say as they hand
Him to the noose
So he has taken an oath
Left their hopes on him
And his home
If he doesn't make it on time
To make it outta this town
He'd rather kiss the sea and drown

There's no near resort
The night turns cold
The ship rises and falls
On the sea's whim
The forces of the sky
Allied to take my fate
One more time

They sang, they sang
The sirens that he can't
Survive the storms
Waves wild, raised by bones
And the eye won't close
So he calls for a truce
For the sake of his crew
"I don't want to live
My own vile truth
If I now relent
Then tell me who will soothe
The storm I face alone?
The world is one big corpse
When I'm not where I want"

There's no near resort
The night turns cold
The ship rises and falls
On the sea's whim
The forces of the sky
Allied to take my fate
One more time

Keep a journal
Through your journey
And once it's over
Observe the pages
Do They show pity?
(Do they show pity?)
Do they know cities?
(Do they know cities)
Half erased drawn cages
Glory in escapism
Do the pages
Love how you've faced the dangers?
Or do They think you're a stranger?
The pages of your tale
(Tear them all)
When you're a stranger to the world
And to your own
Will they mourn?
When you're gone

There's no near resort
The night turns cold
The ship rises and falls
On the sea's whim
The forces of the sky
Allied to take my fate
One more time

Oh, one more time
One more life
But I won't take signs
I will sail away
As the harbour fades behind
Heart's a silhouette
Sends out no regret nor fright
