Wreck

Gentle Giant

The ship's rising up from the sea to the sky heyeheh Hold on


Just one sorry scream and a desperate cry heyeheh Hold on


Their lives pass before them before they die heyeheh --





The sea yawns around like a boiling hell heyeheh hold on


And souls disappear with the toll of that bell heyeheh hold on


The arms of the sea they are dragging them down heyeheh hold on


And sorrows and sins they are lost as they drown heyeheh --





How strange when you think that the sea was their way;


And a meaningless death is the price they pay


For their living was made from the deep


To their people in comfort and keep


Keep all their people and places there


Never to be seen again, never to be loved and their last embrace --


And the kiss has a salt bitter taste





Now all that remains is the deep cruel sea heyeheh hold on


And wreckage of things that used to be heyeheh hold on


No stone marks the place of that watery grave heyeheh hold on


Together they die both the weak and the brave heyeheh hold on





The arms of the sea.... etc.
