List & Heel Songtext

I long still for your arms my love
Hold me close away from things I've done

The waves crash the hull
In morning's quiet calm
The calm before the storm
The break before the dawn
Before the shelling starts
And black clouds above
Hang over our heads
They bring a flash of death
The cold reaper's hand
Tries to pull me in

Lances spread off port
Aim to split our sides
The run's fanning wake
Looks a mile wide
And as the blister breaks
And the ballasts fill The ship's bell is rung
List and heel with ash cans in the distance
Silence deafened, bled in, scuttled and lost

Time stands still
Stands still
Time stands still

Time stands still for us my love
Our anchor dragged in the smoked out sun
No hope still for your words to come
All is fair in a war un-won
I still stand, I still breathe
While only salt and death surround me
I long still for your arms my love
I long still for your arms
