I'm a buoy
In a city of sharks and sailors
I'm an astronaut
Over uncharted waters
It's come around again
Pass and stow
Sharks and sailors
Sharks and sailors
Sharks and sailors
Sharks and sailors
Returning like superheroes
Chained to their places
As unforgettable
As sunken ships
Sharks and sailors
Sharks and sailors
Sharks and sailors
Sharks and sailors
My climate is a half-moon
Wrapped around a series of old maps and spaceships
Here I sleep at seven
The dial sits at three
My body it steers for the center
On this day I've lost face
Mutiny of pirates
On this day, I've lost face
Mutiny of pirates
Pass and stow
Mutiny of pirates
Pass and stow
Mutiny of pirates
Sharks and sailors
Sharks and sailors
Sharks and sailors
Sharks and sailors
An unbridled attention for the clouds
In the shadow of the almighty lighthouse
They become thieves and murderers when the night happens
Rot and tobacco saturate into everything
The direction is of the universe
Crashing bowls in the hull of a failing boat
But it's trying, and they know how hard it's trying
They know
They know
They know!
