Iron Will Over Open Sea (versie 2)

Verse

Old wooden hull beneath our feet

Salt in the beard, fire at our chest

Sailors pray to gods they can't see now

Every mile is a breath away from home

Rope burns my palm but I won't let go

Windscreen cracked but we're still whole

Stars ahead look like scattered light

Nothing left of fear on this night

Pre-Chorus

Hold the wheel, hold your ground

This is everything you're shouting for

I can hear it building in the dark

Tell me when will we break through to spark

Chorus

We ride the storm with iron will over open sea

Nothing's gonna take this from us now

Hands on the masthead, faces turned to light

We burn down every doubt before sunrise tonight

Verse 2

Salt spray freezing where our hearts used be

Someone's shouting, someone's singing free

Icebergs break like ancient armor's thawing

Every wave is a door we're slamming open

Your shoulder knocks into mine in the sway

No room for shadows when dawn comes at bay

I was lost but this water knows my name now

This is how heroes turn to fire and snow

Pre-Chorus

Hold the wheel, hold your ground

This is everything you're shouting for

I can hear it building in the dark

Tell me when will we break through to spark

Chorus

We ride the storm with iron will over open sea

Nothing's gonna take this from us now

Hands on the masthead, faces turned to light

We burn down every doubt before sunrise tonight

Bridge

I won't be a ghost of what I used to know

This ship was built for the fire that we throw

The sky turns white and the black gets thin

This is where heroes start to begin

Chorus

We ride the storm with iron will over open sea

Nothing's gonna take this from us now

Hands on the masthead, faces turned to light

We burn down every doubt before sunrise tonight
