The Cult

The Cult are a British rock band formed in 1983. They gained a dedicated following in Britain in the mid 1980s as a post-punk band with singles such as "She Sells Sanctuary", before breaking mainstream in the United States in the late 1980s as a hard rock band with singles such as "Love Removal Machine" and "Fire Woman". The band fuse a "heavy metal revivalist" sound with the "pseudo-mysticism ... of The Doors [and] the guitar-orchestrations of Led Zeppelin ... while adding touches of post-punk goth rock". Since their earliest form in Bradford during 1981, the band have had various line-ups; the longest-serving members are vocalist Ian Astbury and guitarist Billy Duffy, the band's two songwriters. more »

The boats have sailed away 
I stand here on the shore 
Can't see them anymore 
Can't see them anymore

Waving from afar 
To the land called home
Can you come back soon? 
We wish we could 
We think we've gone too far 
On this ship of fools
We think we've gone too far 
On this ship of fools

And now I walk the shore 
Searching for my soul 
Born in sea and sky 
I was born in sea and sky 

Cast afloat the sea 
Is the ship of fools
And cast afloat the sea 
Is the ship of fools

Heaven's know why 
They went away 
They're all aboard 
Except for me 
Can you come back soon? 

We wish we could 
We think we've gone too far 
On this ship of fools 
On this ship of fools 
On this ship of fools

And now I walk the shore
Searching for my soul 
And born in sea and sky 
I was born in sea and sky

In this ship of fools
In this ship of fools
Cast afloat the sea
Is this ship of fools

We think we've gone too far...
