The temperature is falling
The tide is coming in
Fleeing a sinking ship
Throw caution to the wind
The captain blind with alcohol
Steered straight into a glacier
In nationalist frenzy
Shackled to a mast
And I hope your flag keeps you warm
You'll be a lucky man
Enjoy your isolation
Thrashing with the drowning rats
A childhood memory – your wedding day
Your high school graduation
Flashes by in seconds
Enjoy your isolation
A demagogue is gasping
For air a mile deep
See how the mighty fall
Even rabid wolves can weep
Apostles clutch at dead wood
Now drifting on the surface
The others fled, so now what?
God is dead
Sanctity in a familiar face
Never escape from your cage
Dressed head to toe in your colours
Your windows and doors they stay closed
