Parka Kings, The lyrics - Midnight Sails


Title: Midnight Sails
Artist: Parka Kings, The
Album: !Bienvenidos!
Year: 1997
Submitted by: Hooper_X


Depart the shore, the wind strikes sail
To stretch it out across the sky
Lean steady on the drunken rail
No small steps we do or die

The hero’s tale the loser’s gripe
A swollen fist, a blackened eye
Retold with twists and turns of tongue
More bloody as the bottles dry

Disembarked, the trail’s lost
So choked and overgrown with weeds
Cloudy skies, half-lidded eyes
Fulfilling wants, destroying needs

Rekindled hate, the long-lost lie
Reminded by a fearful glee
Security, the blanket’s warm
But shivers the cold bones decree

Left before and left behind
Relics of a smaller time
Glass it meets the blacktop streets
And parts in shards of changing minds
