Castaway Lyrics by Theocracy

Ghost Ship

2016

[Verse 1]
Destitution, all the others have gone
Left you there all alone
Don't be afraid, this world is not your home
Disillusioned, just a pilgrim passing through
Disdained in everything you do
But there's a single light that's shining through the dark
Because of you

[Pre-Chorus 1]
A sense of honor with no care for reward
But they set their sails and left you there on the shore
To look on 'til they're gone
Disappeared past the horizon

[Chorus]
One by one they sailed away, for a brighter day
Now you're just another castaway
So fly the flag 'til your ship comes in
Keep the faith, my friend, and one day we'll be together once again

[Verse 2]
Isolation, always counting the cost
Always bearing your cross
But in the end your gain will far outweigh
The things you've lost
So when the world has passed you by, and every promise was a lie
And all the friends you had
Have turned their backs on you
Don't wonder why

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You're shunned and cast out just for taking a stand
Left on an island all alone in the sand
Off they go, but you know your ship is coming in tomorrow

[Chorus]
One by one they sailed away, for a brighter day
Now you're just another castaway
So fly the flag 'til your ship comes in
Keep the faith, my friend, and one day we'll be together once again

[Bridge]
Start a fire and stay alive, you're so far from home
Everyone is gone, but I won't leave you alone, I promise
This is the covenant I've made 'til the end, my friend
A blood promise, and some things last forever

[Solo: Val]
[Orchestral Section]

[Chorus]
One by one they sailed away, for a brighter day
Now you're just another castaway
So fly the flag 'til your ship comes in
Keep the faith, my friend, and one day we'll be together once again

Marvel not if the world hates you, 'cause it hates Me, too
For the heart of man is nothing new
So eye the prize for the race you've run
Well done, my son, enter into all that I've prepared for you
