Arvato Digital Services - Ship of Fools lyrics

In the guts of a ship in the middle of the sea Stands a ring for the rivals for everyone to see They spar around the center of their own duality The audience is full and pressed against the ropes Chanting for blood of the loser of the bout The fighters and their fears it symbolizes hope They want to escape but there is no way out Speaker and the spoke, the axle and the wheel The teller and the tale, the flower and the bee The sword and the steel, the beast and the yoke The fish and the sea, the prisoner and the jail Like God asking Abraham to k** his only son He cries out for help, he stares at the sun He never gets an answer when the day finally comes When David fought Goliath he wasn't bound to (?) Now he'll never hit his mark, his opponent makes the rules He's a servant of the story and the gallery confines Driftin' on a sea of words, trapped on a ship of fools Speaker and the spoke, the axle and the wheel The teller and the tale, the flower and the bee The sword and the steel, the beast and the yoke The fish and the sea, the prisoner and the jail Sinkin' on the ship of fools Sinkin' on the ship of fools Sinkin' on the ship of fools Sinkin' on the ship of fools You clamor for an outcome, a candid dénouement The hunger for a resolution manifests the end Concludes with ovation of the blood of your hands He knows he couldn't help her when she needed him the most What he gave her won't undo the one thing that he took Like a vine around a flower, love in a fatal dose His story won't endure, losers never write the books The speaker and the spoke, the axle and the wheel The teller and the tale, the flower and the bee The sword and the steel, the beast and the yoke The fish and the sea, the prisoner and the jail The fire and the smoke, the starved and the meal The head and the tail, the nut from the tree The wax and the seal, the dagger and the cloak The loss and the grief, the hammer and the nail
