Into The Storm

about

Oh captain, my captain
Where are we now
Are we nearing the new age
Can you see it from the bow
Are those stars I see shining
or just signals from the crowd
And is that the crew crying out
Trying to turn us back around

(Chorus)
What do they see
Floating in the breeze
It's carrying me
What do they hear
In this dissonant sea
it can't be ceased
It'll just keep on dragging us onward

Red sky's rolling in
The wind's dragging us down
Toward the beast in the waves
And the earth breaking sounds
And the sails been torn to shreds
By the ice shot down from the clouds
And the heart of every man
Has been weighed down a thousand pounds

(Chorus)

When the morning comes
And our ship is all but gone
You can still hear the screams and cries from the storm
And you can feel the weight
Of the crashing of the waves
As they roar

(Chorus)

Oh Captain, my captain
Where are you now
Are you still leading that ship
Somewhere up in the clouds
Can you see your crew landing
in this new age that you've found
And can you feel the tale end
As the last note begins to sound
