about

We are the ship and life is the journey. The treasure is within, and you end up where you started.

lyrics

Precious cargo

Precious cargo, I was given, treasures and the hands to keep them
Precious cargo, off to see the world and all its wonders given
Walking into darkened corners, how was I to get your notice?
Precious cargo, time’s a wasting, as the days go by I’m counting

What was once a flood, is now a trickle
What I have to show you, is precious little
I don’t want to leave this vale of tears without a ripple

As the river bears its load along, all the streets and streams and channels long
Walking in the night don’t matter, just as long as I deliver

Precious cargo, I was laden, with a payload and a lantern
Precious cargo, I was given, treasures and the hands to keep them

What was once before, is now beyond
What I have to show you, is in my hand
I don’t want to leave this vale of tears without a ripple
