open seas part 1 [keep me honest] lyrics
conquer the ocean by the noon day’s sun
by the stars that same water turns to ice
retreat the sails unclothe the skinny mast
and package me with whiskey and a pair of dice

that noon day sun has got crescent+like motion
& only starts fly up above
weak are my eyes as i follow their movement
when luck should grant
me wind that’s gentle enough

oh but you see me at my worst
my bones yawn in days like these
oh but it keeps me honest
this winter’s bringing me down to my knees
but it keeps mе honest on these opеn seas
gone are those summer days of food to spare
i savour now each crust of bread
now is the test of my generous claims
promises i may have made when my heart was fed

i’ve seen the fishes as they rise to taunt me
they move too fast for my
cold tired hands
but i’m resourceful and
i’m building a net
so come join me for dinner if you
ain’t got other plans

oh but i am yours and ever shall be
oh wherever i go you are with me

so climb aboard now because
all are welcome
the water’s wetter where
our morals bend
you think you’re evil but
i think that i could top you
but beggars can’t be choosers
and we all need friends

i’ll light a fire as i wait
for love to find me
my onle hope is that
i have enough wood
i often find when
i’m running out of patience
i’m able to withstand more than
i though i could
i’m able to withstand more than
i though i could
