lirik lagu the slip - the nashua rose
[verse 1]
story goes
he was a sailor on the nashua rose
no one knows
why it was this boy that the captain chose
from the crow, to the skipper
to the galley hands, below
man saw some thing, in that ocean
that terrified them
so they just had to know
[verse 2: brad barr as the “captain”]
“it came from god, or the devil
or from jupiter, astray
take this candle, god be with you, son
it’s to the east about a mile away.”
[chorus: brad barr as the “captain”]
you can lay your head down
silence like a tomb; what i wish for you.”
[verse 3: brad barr as the “sailor”]
“little boat, if i climb into you
will you stay afloat?
we both know, it’s a n0ble sailor’s final home
i’ve had no preparation
now i’m stranded here, alonе
if my heart fills with water
let mе go peaceful through the darkness below.”
[bridge]
he saw no beast like the hydra
but a breathing light surround
when a door finally opened
the sailor knew his boat would not turn around
[chorus: brad barr as the “captain”]
you can lay your head down
silence like a tomb; what i wish for you
[instrumental break]
[additional text in lyric booklet:
at this point, the sailor enters the dense, glowing fog, where he is overcome by a sensation of peace and lightness. he is so drawn in that he forgets, for a while, about everything else. little does he know that every minute he spends in this portal is roughly equivalent to a year in earth time.]
[outro]
when upon returning
the boy was old and grey
no one knew his name
