lyrics

Brothers! Did you hear the Call?
Our Captain needs us once more

we will again defy the big sea
Together we laugh against the angry foam

The dog days are over
forgotten in nelsons blood

run like the boys you once where
to wooden mother and mad father

We sail
we hope
to fail
to die

but all
we find
is another letdown

we chant
for our
last fight
that will

lead us to our watery end

we laugh
and scream
against
the sea

so she
will send
the father of all storms

just he
will bring
salvation
and lead
to our
final destination

show us more childsplay
we beg for a real lesson
only you can bring
us to our last haven

We sail
we hope
to fail
to die

but all
we find
is another letdown

we chant
for our
last fight
that will
lead us to our watery end

we laugh
and scream
against
the sea

so she
will send
the father of all storms

just he
will bring
salvation
and lead
to our
final destination

take us back
drag us down
where we are
where we are from
