Sail! Sail! Sailing uncharted A life set adrift is a life meant for me Setting sail from this land and out to the sea Blow wind blow, take my soul across the sea wherever you may be A life set adrift is a life meant for me Sail! Sail! Sailing uncharted

Omens 04:49
lyrics

Omens Omens Ringing (of) the bells by no one Omens Omens Drown in a sea of fears Omens Omens Cast me away from these Omens Omens leaving behind my peace of mind See the world that's spinning round hold you to the floor See the ships go sailing by while standing on the shore See the clouds they're gathering stirring up the waves See the tide that's going out that's where I need to be The ground you walk, the steps you take, the structures that you build Will hold you up until they break and then your dreams are killed What you need is security, a plan to back you up Until the breech that break them down and leaves you all shook up Hear the bells it sounds like they're ringing but who pulled the string It wasn't me you see I was singing I couldn't hear them ring Wasn't it you who threw the stone, cast it out to sea? Maybe it was you see I was just whistling to the beat Omens Omens Ringing (of) the bells by no one Omens Omens Drown in a sea of fears Omens Omens Cast me away from these Omens Omens leaving behind my peace of mind See the cats that groom themselves walk away from me See the sharks they're swimming round, waiting to be free See them come and tie me down, I ain't gonna flee See me laugh when I'm overboard cast out to the sea When I land the tide comes in, holds me to the floor I kick my legs and swim away like I never have before At the top my heart will pound as I swim away The life I feel as I swim around will keep me from death Hear the bells it sounds like they're ringing but who pulled the string? It wasn't me you see I was singing, I couldn't hear them ring Wasn't it you who threw the stone, cast it out to sea? Maybe it was you see I was just whistling to the beat

Cut me off and change my course, you can try Throw me down into the brig, you can want Strip me of my right to be, you can hope There are those who sell their souls, but it ain't me I won't fall into your trap I will just sink the ship Jolly Roger fly so high Luring those who pass him by Jolly Roger catch his eye Then he'll leave you high and dry Where you lie Hear his cry When you defy I will never yield control I will never let him on Before (I do) I will jump off Leave this sinking ship behind Cut me off and change my course, you can try Throw me down into the brig, you can want Strip me of my right to be, you can hope There are those who sell their souls, but it ain't me I won't fall into your trap I will just sink the ship Jolly Roger fly so high Luring those who pass him by Jolly Roger catch his eye Then he'll leave you high and dry Where you lie Hear his cry When you defy Jolly Roger leave me be You can't stop me can't you see? Jolly Roger I forsee I will always be set free Set degree To the sea I will be free

Siren's Song 04:10
lyrics
buy track
Hear that in the air it's a melody Draws me in to see a girl so sweet Standing on the shore singing to the sea Catch her with a glance and she'll give you a treat Oh no! Watch out! Don't look! Turn back! Oh no! What's that? Don't know! Walk on! See the thing that's over there behind her back? The thing that sort of looks alive who's time has passed? The thing that maybe is a dream burned to black? That's the one that stopped on by to talk to her last Oh I know she looks so good Standing there her arms extended calling out my name Don't be fooled by the song she sings It's just a tune to draw you into her perfect trap When you're there she'll pin you down Steal your soul and that's how she will Kill you with her Siren's Song

Rock Bottom 07:26
lyrics
buy track
Sometimes in life you sink And sometimes in life you swim It don't matter to me I can take it either way Won't you sail away with me Sometimes you gotta sink To know you feel at all Take in one last breath Before you take the fall I will see you there before We're on rock bottom Yeah we're on the bottom Down in the murky depths When the darkness closes in There ain't a light around To see your paling skin I can see it all and more Pressure closing in Will take your breath away Pin you to the floor And leave you where you lay I will pull you up before We're on rock bottom Yeah we're on the bottom The surging of the storm Is stirring up the waves Digging the tombs of those Who fill their early graves I can hear it rolling in Turmoil is all around In the water that you tread All around are waves Splashing over your head I will throw you a line before We're on rock bottom Yeah we're on the bottom The ship we're sailing on Is broke and full of holes Down under the sea It sinks with all its souls I can feel it going down Oh tamer of the sea Won't you let us in your realm We're heading for the rocks With no one at the helm I will take control before We're on rock bottom Yeah we're on the bottom Change the course and don't look back to find out who you are Sink or swim you gotta fight to keep yourself afloat I don't know just who I was or why I never tried All I know is the time is right to set out to the sea

Lost at Sea 05:43
lyrics

Lost at sea in a sea of liquid Harmony dancing in my jaded Eyes I see all the colors of the Melody that is coming from the Waves I hear crashing up against the Atmosphere that was brought about by Yesteryear that will send me to the New frontier and I stand here thinking What have I got to offer that will Let me by into the roll that will Signify the beginning of the change in tide There will be I'm out of range to hear your call To tell me where I need to go I'm out of range I've gone too far Where I've gone I don't know The thing you see is no one here To tell me where I need to be I guess I'll just decide myself Where to go and what to do It's up to me to find my way To the place that I belong Where that is I don't know The course I'll take is what I'll find Lost at sea in a sea of liquid Harmony dancing in my jaded Eyes I see all the colors of the Melody that is coming from the Waves I hear crashing up against the Atmosphere that was brought about by Yesteryear that will send me to the New frontier and I stand here thinking What have I got to offer that will Let me by into the roll that will Signify the beginning of the change in tide There will be I lost myself while out to sea Drawn off course to where (you are) The crashing waves are all I know Of what we are and who I am With the tide I will float on Holding on with all my might To the time I spend chasing waves Splashing down onto the shore When I land the tide will surge Like it never has before The seas rise onto the land The towns will flood with all my waves

Sunken Treasure 04:26
lyrics
buy track
Exploring down to the depth (is) the only way to find Sunken down so deep the treasures of mankind Finer than pure gold and diamonds how they shine Discoveries to big they really blow my mind To go away and never come back or stay right where I'm at A choice I have that's mine alone to make To sink or swim in the water so deep or stand here on the shore It's all part of the risk I choose to take The way I choose to say my name be it shouted or suppressed Is how I choose to have it said at all The face I see inside the mirror that stares on back at me Is the one I picked as the one I want to see Sunken down so deep The treasures that we seek Causing me to be The person that you see Oh how I need it so bad to find my way Exploring down to the depth (is) the only way to find Sunken down so deep the treasures of mankind Finer than pure gold and diamonds how they shine Discoveries to big they really blow my mind Searching on through the night I try to find my way To the place I seek of which I'll never stay Holding on to the dream I keep that thought at bay Journey's end will never come and that's what I'm trying to say The gold and jewels that I collect the treasures that I keep Will only serve to weigh me down I fear Cause when I jump into the sea any way I go I need my legs to swim away from here The words you say as I swim away the way in which you feel Are words the wind will never let me hear The omens that come into my life to dowse my inner light Is something that I'm keeping very near Sunken down so deep The treasures that we seek Causing me to be The person that you see Oh how I need it so bad to find my way

Waves 04:03

Riding the wavers is all I know Riding the waves around Riding the waves through high and low Riding the waves oh yeah Oh how I know that I've said it before Oh how I know it's getting old But I would rather die than stand on the shore Just waiting for my blood to get cold Push up ahead and into the fog Rise and fall with the flow of the tide Take control of the wheel of the cog Turn around and go for a ride Heading into the storm Whereby I will perform The life of which I speak Uncharted waters I seek Riding the wavers is all I know Riding the waves around Riding the waves through high and low Riding the waves oh yeah From the beginning of the journey I said I will take control of the ship I guess I got it stuck in my head I'll be the one that's making the trip I don't know how long it will be Till I reach the place that I find All I know is that all I can see (is) The land I love from inside of my mind Heading into the storm Whereby I will perform The life of which I speak Uncharted waters I seek Riding the wavers is all I know Riding the waves around Riding the waves through high and low Riding the waves oh yeah

Conquistador 04:52
lyrics

Don't tell me that there is another land Where life is a treasure that sits in the sand Don't tell me to go there and sit by the bay Watching the tide that can take me away I gotta go Chasing the tide I gotta know What does it hide So I'm sailing away A life set adrift is a life meant for me Setting sail from this land and out to the sea Blow wind blow take my soul 'cross the sea wherever you may be Raise the sails and set me free A life set adrift is a life meant for me There is a heading that I must follow Taking me to a place far away To a land I can dream of and be there tomorrow A land that's free from a life ton astray I will explore And I will claim Conquistador That's my name So I'm sailing away Look in the mirror to sail away Look to yourself to plot the course Look to the stars to guide your way Look to the world to find the source Of where you must go Look to the sky to see the light Look up ahead to find the shore Look up above to save your life Look at the way in which you become Conquistador

The Walking Seattle, Washington

The Walking is a Seattle-based power trio founded in 2012 by Matt Felton, Tyler Rath, and Marcus Powell. To classify The Walking with a genre is an exercise in futility. We do not conform to genre, stereotypes, or the expectations of the music industry. Nor are we afraid to experiment with new sounds and new ways of doing things no matter how crazy they sound. ... more
