Rough Waters Lyrics by As A Conceit

Ebb / Flow

2014

I've seen tides on the beach, collecting the corpses
Of those in between the fled and the homesick
I thought I'd never leave, too afraid of the courses
I did what I did, to cleanse my remorses

I set sail, not to leave things behind but so set things ahead
I set sail, to watch the streams pass me by not my fears hold me back

Aweigh the anchor, to our salvation
It's the journey that means something, not the single destination
And on we go

We went too far to turn back now
We went this far just to turn this around

Don't wait for me awake, we're heading home
We're coming home

We're coming home, we still stand strong
We never saw it coming
We're coming home, still miles to go
We can still hear their calling

And now winds are against us, I'll take my time
Odds were against us, we did not seem to mind
Winds are against us, we will abide, just blow from the top of your lungs

Aweigh, aweigh the anchor
Are we, are we still welcome home?
Aweigh, aweigh the anchor
Are we, are we still welcome?

It calls for a toast to the best of the intentions
It calls for a toast to the worst of the occasions
Worst of the occasions

So leave the docks, no reason to keep safe

We're coming home, we still stand strong
We never saw it coming
We're coming home, still miles to go
We can still hear their calling

We're heading home
We're coming home

We're coming home, we still stand strong
We never saw it coming
