White Sail

Verse 1

A white sail pulls me through the gale
My mast against the sky
We tack to south on a ragged trail
Leave the shallow shores behind

Verse 2

Waves are whispering old stories
The stars burn through the haze
There’s no random in these glories
A purpose in this craze

Chorus

Though the ground keeps slipping under
They can’t break the will I trust
While the world shakes down in thunder
I will rise from waves and dust

Verse 3

We're on the edge, we scream and fight
The heavens split in two
We are the stubborn, born in the night
We'll make our light break through

Verse 4

The sail it cracks like thunder loud
The endless sky is callin’
I'm chasin' dreams through a haunted cloud
And time itself is stallin’

Chorus

Though the ground keeps slipping under
They can’t break the will I trust
While the world shakes down in thunder
I will rise from waves and dust
