The Dead Men Stood Together (Alternate) Lyrics

Oh, my enemies they ride off the cupboard in smoke
Laid to rest all my dreams in the sea
And somewhere I know that I've got to go
In the air, or down in the drink

I was warned by the winds to turn in defeat
But I spit in their face, and they spit back at me
And with all my air I screamed: now I see
I am lost, I am lost; please help me

Now I wait for her song
I've been out here for weeks
And I'm still all alone
Yeah, I wait for her song
'cause only a siren
Only can lead you back home

With the weight of the world strapped firm to my feet
I stepped to the edge, and I fell on my knees
I took my last breath, and then I cut myself free
I am yours, I am yours; please, take me

Now I wait for her song
I've been out here for weeks
And I'm still all alone
Yeah, I wait for her song
'cause only a siren
Only can lead you back home

We are...
We are...
All lost...
