Schwa Lyrics

Descent into the Maelstrom

Lyricist: John Mullins
Vocalist: John Mullins

Out in the middle of the sea 
Over my head and way too deep 
Safe from my life and nothing left to keep 
Out of the corner of my eye 
as I watch the sails bend towards the skies
Blackness in the corner of my eye 

chorus: 
I wanna go home 
Sail away 
So I roam 
For today  

Approaching is the coming storm 
Will sink my ship with a swing of it's arm 
Can't avoid the wrath of the storm 
Batten everything down 
Or we shall never make the ground 
Take the wheel bring us hard around 

chorus 

Now comes the rain in the shadow of the hurricane 
There's nobody left to carry on my name 
The wind picks up its speed 
Sucking up air with an evil greed 
Momentum for a deadly deed 

I wanna go home  

I think of all I have missed 
As my ship is sent into the abyss 
My ship dives in a final twist 
I go down 

chorus
