Lifeboat Lyrics


After all, our dreams went down
Sinking for our very eyes
Still echoing the sound
Oh, the frozen dreadful criesWitnessed the passing of our only loves
Lose a barrel to the sea
Why did you choose my only love?
It could have easily been meBut it seems there was some other plan
One I don't care to understand
In the refuge of these foreign arms
I could find your holy landHow can it be that we defy this tragedy
From this lifeboat in the dark?
Is it wrong that we could come together?
Wind and sorrow bear a sparkIn our soul and desperation
Truest thing we'd ever known
But to admit that to love would be blasphemy
Just to show we had our groundHow can it be that we defy this tragedy
From this lifeboat in the dark?
Is it wrong that we could come together?

Wind and sorrow bear a sparkHow can it be that we defy this tragedy
From this lifeboat in the dark?
Is it wrong that we could come together?
Wind and sorrow bear a sparkHow can it be that we defy this tragedy
From this lifeboat in the dark?
Is it wrong that we could come together?
Wind and sorrow bear a spark

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

The self-titled debut album from Chris Shiflett & The Dead Peasants shows a new, perhaps unexpected side of the longtime Foo Fighter lead guitarist: his skill at writing slightly dialed-down, infectious Americana-laced rock songs. The album is chock-full of soulful pedal steel- and twang guitar-accented songs steeped in his longtime appreciation of classic country artists (Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Hank Williams), rockabilly (Gene Vincent, Elvis, Eddie Cochran), and deep-rooted rock bands (The Replacements, The Rolling Stones, X).
