lyrics

Something’s passed
A change in the air
Rhythmic pounding
Has died away
Deafening, Silence
Rings in my ears
Could this be, the end
Can I go home?

Jump out of bed, Run up the stairs
2 steps at a time
The anticipation, fragile hope
Rise with each stair
And from the top, I can see
The waves have ceased
The clouds have gone, the wind has left
And I can see the shore

After all that I’ve been through, it might be over
Rescue might just come today
Days turned to weeks; this nightmare didn’t want to end
Rescue might just come today

I rush to tell the other keeper
And wake him from his sleep
The storm has passed
And we can go home, go home
He just stares right through me
Doesn’t seem to care
For a second I thought the old man
Might still be there

I can see, the relief boat coming
I can see, my freedom
I can see, the relief boat coming
I can see, my freedom

The men come ashore
With a smile and a hand shake
They’ve no idea
Just what we’ve seen
Where do you start?
To explain what’s happened
Ones mans died
The others lost his mind

So I lead them
To the our fallen keeper
They slowly realise
The hell we’ve lived through
And as we leave
And pass on the torch
3 more men
Brave life on the rock
I can’t feel
Any sympathy
I’m just glad
To be safe and free
