Redemption from Roadside Flowers by the Silent Boys

Redemption

I fell into the sea of dizzy expectations
Am I the one for you? I keep my eyes on the horizon
I’m sunk without the last laugh
Off keel without the last word
And I know you see what’s going on
I’m lost at sea but not quite a shipwrecked fool

I can hear the songs of the sirens
beckoning me and leading me astray
What if I could find my way home?
Would you greet me with a welcoming embrace?


I fell into the sea of unwanted self-reflection
An icy cold baptism, the cleansing of this troubled soul
I’m finished with the seasick lies
And all those leaking alibis
I hope you see what’s going on
I’ve been lost at sea but now I’ve righted this ship

I could hear the songs of the sirens
Beckoning me, failing to lead me astray
The turbulence of humility
The white seagulls mean that dry land is ahead

There’s no fear in my eyes!
There’s no fear in my eyes!
There’s no fear in my eyes!
There’s no fear in my eyes!
