Struggle with the current
Dragged down into the dark
No reward waiting
No salvation or arkUnseen borders
To protect the nation state
Sink like stones to the bottom
Not once a white man's fateOne final escape
Deported into the deep
Three hundred sixty-six
Too many heroes for the hull to keepUpon a heartless sea
Where dreams come to die
Upon a heartless sea
Our willing sacrificeThat's someone's sister
That's someone's son
That's someone's sister
That's someone's son
I've got a sister
I'm someone's son
I want a better life
And I'm not the only oneThat's someone's sister
That's someone's son
I've got a sister
I'm someone's son
I want a better life
And I'm not the only oneAs the waves come crashing
With the rejected and poor
Bodies upon bodies
They shall overcome no moreSo hail to the capital
That will set us free
Free to drown and free to die
To slave eternallyUpon a heartless sea
Where dreams come to die
Upon a heartless sea
Our willing sacrificeThat's someone's sister
That's someone's son
That's someone's sister(that's someone's sister)
That's someone's son (that's someone's son)
I've got a sister
I'm someone's son
I want a better life
And I'm not the only oneThat's someone's sister(that's someone's sister)
That's someone's son (that's someone's son)
I've got a sister
I'm someone's son
I want a better life
And I'm not the only oneAfter forcing them to want our lives
We rip the honor from their sacrifice
We close our coffers and we close our eyesAfter forcing them to want our lives
Rip the honor from their sacrifice
We close our coffers and we close our eyesDragged down by the weight of freedom
Dragged down by the loss of hope
Dragged down by the weight of freedom
Dragged down by the loss of hope
Yeah, c'mon
Dragged down by the loss of hope
