The captain sounds the siren
There's disaster up ahead
Well it's not what I expected
But there's a shipwreck 'round the bend
Preparing for the waters
It's still freezing here you know
With a final prayer for courage
Easing down and off they go
You pray to God that somebody will find you
Fate in hand, the lucky few remind you
Shoot a flare into the skies
A flash of light to catch my eyes
Send a lifeboat out or drop a rope
Well sometime soon there's bound to be
A rescue for some company
Leading us to find a way back home
This ship is slowly sinking
But there are choices left to make
We could stop and watch in terror
Or just swim from our mistakes
You pray to God that someone will remind you
Fate in hand, the future always finds you
Shoot a flare into the skies
A flash of light to catch my eyes
Send a lifeboat out or drop a rope
Well sometime soon there's bound to be
A rescue for some company
Leading us to find a way back home
So we hope, so we hope
You were always there in the horizon
Blinded and I tried my best to see
Nothing's there to search for right behind us
To greet the waves that carry us and everything we'll be
You pray to God that somebody will find you
Fate in hand, the lucky few remind you
Moving from this sinking ship
Some promises that trace our lips
No one wants to make it out alone
Well sometime soon there's bound to be
A rescue for some company
Leading us to find a way back home
In every space we have a dream
As futile as it all may seem
Nothing else could keep our lives afloat
So we hope, so we hope
So we hope, so we hope
So we hope, so we hope
So we hope, so we hope
