Drift 02:27
Lyrics: We're too far south for the sun to set Yeah we're drifting. We're too far south for the sun to set Yeah we're drifting.

Lyrics: It was down at old Joe's bar room, at the corner by the square The usual crowd was assembled, and big Joe McKennedy was there. He was standing at my shoulder, his eyes were bloodshot red. And he turned to the crowd around him, These were the very words he said: I went down to St. James infirmary, I saw my baby there She was stretched out on a long white table, So cold, so white, so fair. Let her go, let her go, God bless her Wherever she may be She may search this wide world over And never find a sweet man like me. Let her go, let her go, God bless her Wherever she may be She may search this wide world over And never find a sweet man like me.

Lyrics: Shadows passing through, We're in the southern lands, Fighting complacencies of man, Summers left on land, We faded through it all, It's chilling and it's cold, There's growlers at on our shores We're far from land, Far from land, Radars on horizons, Seeing ice instead of sand. You don't know just how far you have come, Until it swarms into the depths of sound resounding back to you. We're far from land, Far from land, Radars on horizons, Seeing ice instead of sand.

Watchkeeper 03:04
Lyrics: Wake up inside your melancholy, It's time to start to move, Watch out for its all around you and you'll see how far you've come. Wake up, watch out and realise. All you have is the present, Time doesn't exist Watch out your going to far, you'll see the tides have turned, Hold fast to what you believe in, you have control of it all, Wake up. Wake up, watch out and realise. All you have is the present moment, Time doesn't exist You're in control

In The Fog 03:51
Lyrics: As the night draws a close, and we're sitting back Deep in thoughts of poetry and prose Hanging out watching our backs And we turn through the portholes And we're not really sure what we're here for The clouds are in Because we're deep inside the fog We're deep inside the fog Its clouding us in And the temperature's raising But our spines are becoming frozen And even though we're wasting time and resources, We're just floating And we're full of all our passion And we're striving for success And although we have no answer yet But still we're searching, and searching, and searching and searching We're deep inside the fog We're deep inside the fog Its clouding us in Yeah, we're deep inside the fog We're deep inside the fog Its clouding us in
