So on I sail, those cliffs behind

And all was quiet in my mind

New worlds I thought that I could see

And promise waiting there for me

A quiet place to fill my cup

No storm, no hate, no, not enough

But all that land I thought I found

Was only water for the drowned

I woke to see the storm had eased

But still, I could not make my peace

When plenty came to empty me

Of all the things I dreamed we'd be

Son, you can't fight the waves as they break

Your prayers for mercy, the water will take

A promise thе world has been whispering to man

"Never again"

So nеver forget the ways we failed

On we sail

The water rose with roaring sound

As we all raced for the low ground

And all masks fell there on the shore

And all I've ever been is war

So on I sail, those cliffs behind

Of many more, this war is mine

A heavy weight, this empty cup

I've carried all I've given up

Son, you can't fight the waves as they break

Your prayers for mercy, the water will take

A promise the world has been whispering to man

"Never again"

So never forget the ways we failed

On we sail
