The Wreckers

The breakers roar on an unseen shore

In the teeth of a hurricane

We struggle in vain

A hellish night - a ghostly light

Appears through the driving rain

Salvation in a human chain

All I know is that sometimes you have to be wary

Of a miracle too good to be true

All I know is that sometimes the truth is contrary

Everything in life you thought you knew

All I know is that sometimes you have to be wary

'Cause sometimes the target is you

Driven aground, with that awful sound

Drowned by the cheer from ashore

We wonder what for

The people swarm through the darkling storm

Gather everything they can score

Until their backs won't bear any more

All I know is that sometimes you have to be wary

Of a miracle too good to be true

All I know is that sometimes the truth is contrary

Everything in life you thought you knew

All I know is that sometimes you have to be wary

Of a miracle too good to be true

All I know is that sometimes the truth is contrary

'Cause sometimes the target is you

The breakers roar on an unseen shore

In the teeth of an icy grave

In the teeth of an icy grave

The human chain leaves a bloody stain

Washed away in the pounding waves

Washed away in the pounding waves

All I know is that sometimes you have to be wary

Of a miracle too good to be true

All I know is that sometimes the truth is contrary

Everything in life you thought you knew

All I know is that sometimes you have to be wary

'Cause sometimes the target is you

All I now is that memory can be too much to carry

Striking down like a bolt from the blue

All I know is that sometimes the truth is contrary

Everything in life you thought you knew

All I know is that sometimes the truth is contrary

'Cause sometimes the target is you
