after all our dreams went down 
sinking for our very eyes 
still echoing the sound 
oh the frozen dreadful cries

witnessed the passing of our only loves
lose a barrel to the sea
why did you choose my only love
it could of easily been me

but it seems there was some other plan
one i don't care to understand 
in the refuge of these foreign arms
i could find your holy land

how can it be that we defy this tragedy 
from this lifeboat in the dark 
is it wrong that we [bad word] together 
wind and sorrow bear a spark

in our soul and desperation  [bad word] thing we'd ever known 
but to admit that to have loved, would be blasphemy 
just to show we had our ground

how can it be that we defy this tragedy
from this lifeboat in the dark
is it wrong that we [bad word] together
wind and sorrow bear a spark 

how can it be that we defy this tragedy
from this lifeboat in the dark
is it wrong that we [bad word] together
wind and sorrow bear a spark 

how can it be that we defy this tragedy
from this lifeboat in the dark
is it wrong that we [bad word] together
wind and sorrow bear a spark
