The Altogether - Shipwreck Song Lyrics

Oh! Brother here
Waiting on the eastern shore
Oh! Sister dear
Tell me what you're waiting for
We've been tossed about
Freezing on the eastern shore
Waves that spat us out
Tell me what you're freezing for
As I lay clinging to the mast
Ears still ringing from the blast
Looked up to the swirling stars that swore that they would guide us
Now gone, swallowed by the moon, tugged at the sheets to hide us
In this cloudy place
Where no one knows your name when they see your face
Go rescue him
Drowning on the eastern shore
It's sink or swim
So tell me what you're drowning for
We have fought the fight
Clinging to the eastern shore
Now we wait for night
Tell me what you're clinging for
And when the storm came raging past
Don't you feel you're aging fast?
And clouds that you swore bore the shape of your own mother
Explode, everybody starts to look like one another
When the lightning hits
Your name was all you had, now it's blown to bits
So let us begin
Living on the eastern shore
Let the players in
Tell me what you're living for
Oh! Brother here
Waiting on the eastern shore
Oh! Sister dear
Tell me what you're waiting for
Oh! Brother here
Waiting on the eastern shore
Oh! Sister dear
Tell me what you're waiting for
Tell me what you're waiting for
Tell me what you're waiting for
