A Shipwreck In The Sand

Once upon a timeBefore the lakes and rivers were pollutedBefore the animals were poached to extinctionAnd before man had destroyed the earth's atmosphereThere was a great ship.This vessel was to venture into new watersTo find new resources, to make life easier and more enjoyable.It was a simple mission for the crewWho were excited to be a part of this unionThey pledged their allegiance to the captainAnd vowed to be there no matter whatIn sickness, health, and possible deathAs time passed by, there was no new land to be foundAs the days grew shorterAnd the nights grew longer and colderThe crew became more and more skeptical about the captain's visionOriginally passionate and committed true and faithfulThey now began to revolt.You crossed the lineI was honestI never promised anythingJust a brotherhood to stand for somethingAnd everyone should take the leadFollow your dreamsIf you don't try, you failAs the mutiny started and the captain was overthrown and chainedHe asked them why their minds had changedThere's no gold to be found, no treasure in the groundWe won't die for thisWe won't die for youYou've lost your mindsI was honestI never promised anythingJust a brotherhood to stand for somethingAnd even if they disagreeFollow your dreamsIf you don't try, you fail.This dream is nowA shipwreck in the sandThey gave up, they made all their demandsThe storm consumed fifty seven soulsWho died in vain, his love they stoleThis union, a battle fought and lostThis union is not about the causeThis union was never about loveThis union [x2]This union, a battle fought and lostThis union is not about the causeThe union was never about loveThis union [x2]This union, a battle fought and lostThis union was about about the causeThis union was never about a love
