Paroles de Corsican Mastiff Stride
We sail we sleep we scry dead landWe dig a pit beneath the sand
A place to keep the sun at bay
At dark we rise and find out way
With our faithful companion by our side
Put it all on the table and let it ride
Close to the dropoff on our long slide
The land we left becomes a dream
The names we knew go up like steam
They leave some trails against the sky
All but invisible to the eye
With our faithful companion by our side
Put it all on the table and let it ride
Close to the dropoff on our long slide
Call off the search party
Let mourners wail by the shore
Point to the spot where our ship disappeared
We're not coming home any more
Should you succeed and breach the coast
You tell your friends you've seen a ghost
You tell them all there's nothing here worth dying for Close to the dropoff on our long slide
Close to the dropoff on our long slide
The land we left becomes a dream
The names we knew go up like steam
They leave some trails against the sky
All but invisible to the eye
With our faithful companion by our side
Put it all on the table and let it ride
Close to the dropoff on our long slide
Call off the search party
Let mourners wail by the shore
Point to the spot where our ship disappeared
We're not coming home any more
Should you succeed and breach the coast
You tell your friends you've seen a ghost
You tell them all there's nothing here worth dying for Close to the dropoff on our long slide
