Maiden Voyage Lyrics

Now open your hands

The wounds are still bleeding

You're nailed to the wall

The vultures are feeding

Steal… everything you were taught

Even-keel, never stray from the plot

Brokered deals as society rots

Contempt for what you've wrought

Now open your eyes

And stare through the darkness

Encased in the glass

Obscuring and blurring the path

Pride… as the sails are unfurled

You're born to die, that's the way of the world

Left behind, hoping someday they'll learn

Each passenger must wait their turn

Can you tell them, what was your name?

Tossed aside on the baggage claim

Was it worth it? Was it?

That's the price of fame…
