Can you hear the sirens cry   From across the water?      For your blunders we bore the blame    For all who splintered in our wicked wake    You tied yourselves up on your masts    Asked to take what's not been given    Employ for your purpose, all that you find    But we are waterborne, we are not your kind    We've sacrificed our dreams in your lucid streams    For your grander schemes, but we're leaving soon       At the water's edge, for your sake we bled    Tempting you, though empty to the bone    Know that we are not grateful    For your guidance and shelter       On a stage of your design    We stood beautiful and empty    We would have traded your trials and fears    For the freedom to sail off from here    We've sacrificed our dreams in your lucid streams    For your grander schemes, but we're leaving soon       At the water's edge, for your sake we bled    Tempting you, though empty to the bone    Know that we are not grateful   No more settled and faithful    We will never be grateful       Can you hear the sirens cry?
