Lyrics

I Am Ahab

There's magic in the water That attracts all men (all men) Across hills and down streams The turning Of the tide Outlook Future bright Selfish Beauty shines Light cloud rain drive on Thirteen years to this day red planet aligned Into sight Sixty thousand years of light Fascination with a mountain put to sea Built to slay and conquer All with teeth of beasts
