Everybody's back in town
Give me the armor and let me prepare
It can be easy or difficult to steer
The heart and breath stops, death cheats death, it's clear
Time and tide wait for no man
Slowly realize as fast as you can
Thought I saw a glimpse of how you were at five
Ain't it strange how these things take you by surprise?

We are drifting on the deep sea
And I can't navigate the stars like my father
Oh, we're drifting out to sea
Into deep water
If we're scared, it puts us under

The more you talk the less you mean
You told me that when I was just seventeen
When it sinks in you will not always be here
Funny how all your small worries disappear

We are drifting on the deep sea
And I can't navigate the stars like my father
Oh, we're drifting out to sea into deep water
Oh, we're drifting out to sea into deep water
Oh, we're drifting out to sea into deep water
Oh, we're drifting out to sea into deep water
Oh, we're drifting out to sea into deep water
If we're scared it puts us under

If you're thinking what you know is true then tell them
Let them know this
And if your time comes
Ask the question
Were you tender for those you hold dear?

We are drifting on the deep sea
And I can't navigate the stars like my father
Oh, we're drifting out to sea into deep water
Oh, we're drifting out to sea into deep water
Oh, we're drifting out to sea into deep water
Oh, we're drifting out to sea into deep water
