lyrics

ANCHOR'S WEIGHT

Draw the ropes together, another anchorʼs weight
Fastens us to the ocean floor and seals this vesselʼs fate
Scrape along the bottom to find a catch to hold
Stir the silt that murks the view, and watch the mission fold

Now I donʼt know where we went wrong,
But I sure know where these things belong

Whitewashed by the excess of another anchorʼs weight
Swallowing your anger with another Captain straight
Never sought to navigate beyond your wreckless fate
Revel in your denial as you damn the ones you hate

Now I donʼt know where we went wrong,
But I sure know where these things belong
