Tempest from Apathy: Reborn by Apathy

All aboard on this journey
To a land abroad never seen before
Where the legends tell tales of glory
Rivers run with gold and drink to cure the old

Clouds ahead in the distance
Sensing dread from the deafening silence
But we sail on valiantly
In defiance of the tempest

Heading straight through the darkness
Far too late to escape it
So we ride against the current
Battered by the relentless torrent

In the eye
We catch a glimpse of that which lies
Beyond the other side
The waves are calm
But the worst is yet to come
As the clouds return

Hanging on by our dear lives
As the winds begin to rise again
Twenty men swept overboard
Claimed its sacrifice, at last storm subsides

"Land ahoy!" Calls a shipmate
We'd rejoice if not for one thing
While we inch forth desperately
Sinking slowly into the sea

On the shore of foreign water
We arrive a score left behind
Was it worth it, the cost of life
Is our fortune just to be alive

Now one by one here we gather
All around to start all over
We rebuild, slow but sure
And pray that one day we will return
