Steal From the Thief

We’ll steal light from the darkness,
Even the faintest star still shines
We’ll find hope among the heartless
In faith it’ll never find
We’ll smile at what’s been stolen,
We’ll take back from the thief
Whatever it takes :II (3x), it can’t take belief
The thief arrived, unwanted, an uninvited, shadow on our door
We drew the shade, closed the curtain, our burden was more than before
1st it took dreams, then it took time, couldn’t get hope, lord knows it tried
Took us to the gates of perdition, it took conviction, but we saw the light
Chorus
Were steadfast, undaunted, we lit candles and studied cards
In the darkest hour of the taking we saw the lights from afar
You can’t wish, upon a star with your eyes falling at your feet
So pick up your chin, let your smile begin to take something back from the thief

C-Level
The chosen few, it’s all new, impressed into Ahab’s crew, can’t see you but they say you’re here
Remanded deck hand, far away from dry land suddenly your form appears
Boat slip, a ghost ship, a fate trip, gone adrift you’re something everybody fears
Took the news determined to keep you in the captain’s view, ride the tides until we’re clear
We’re all chasing a great white whale, with tidal waves all around, C-Level with an even keel, together we can take him down
Typhoon, harpoon, Quequeg ocean blue, unanchored on an unknown course
Black water, blue water, white cap, sea otter, I’m adrift but still on board
Star map, wave’s lap, moonraker’s sail flap, every storm needs a port
Windward, leeward, scuttlebutt, sea bird, a race with a great reward
Chorus
Regale Ishmael Pequod full sail shots across the starboard
Taciturn, rope burn, center line, bow-to-stern, we’ll win the battle and the war
Skyline, shoreline, Starbuck feelin fine he knows
we’re on a home course
Permission, remission, revision, the listen the waves finally found the shore

Face of the Rain

Low pressure rising, black clouds in the sky
Thunder mumbles, but it can't disguise
When lightning strikes, it shines a light
And we all recognize, the face of the rain
