The Rescue Party Lyrics
We're kept alive by a hunger to survive
And a will to reach the journey's end
We keep in mind all the men we left behind
Promise to return for them again
My body weeps for a deep and dreamless sleep
But I'll settle for what tomorrow brings
And I lost my mind, perhaps my sense of time
To the purgatory of forgotten things
Ooooooh
Ooooooh
This battered boat- she can barely stay afloat
So we push her through the world's most troubled sea
We curse the night, and everything in sight
'Cause we rage against a tireless enemy
Oh, my body shakes as I fight to stay awake
Flying reckless on these tired wings
This too shall pass, and we'll leave it in the past
In the purgatory of forgotten things
Ooooooh
Ooooooh
And a will to reach the journey's end
We keep in mind all the men we left behind
Promise to return for them again
But I'll settle for what tomorrow brings
And I lost my mind, perhaps my sense of time
To the purgatory of forgotten things
Ooooooh
So we push her through the world's most troubled sea
We curse the night, and everything in sight
'Cause we rage against a tireless enemy
Flying reckless on these tired wings
This too shall pass, and we'll leave it in the past
In the purgatory of forgotten things
Ooooooh
