Salt in my mouth
Iron in my lungs
The horizon don’t answer back
I learned the names of broken waves
Before i learned to trust
Every promise carved in light
Turned brown with rust
Maps were drawn by cleaner hands
Than the ones i use
They said “follow the star”
Like stars don’t lie too
Compass spinning like a drunk
Needle laughing in my palm
Every rule they sold as truth
Sank before the storm
Nautical star
You burned so bright, you burned me blind
Nautical star
I bled my way through every sign
No god above these blackened seas
No shore that waits for me
Still i sail
Still i sail
Under a nautical star
Every port was just a deal
With a different face
Shake my hand, steal my breath
Call it grace
I tied my fate to painted lights
Hanging in the sky
Funny how the cleanest stars
Watch you die
Wind don’t care what you believe
Rope cuts same for saints and thieves
Every oath i swallowed whole
Still tastes like grief
Nautical star
You burned so bright, you burned me blind
Nautical star
Left me nothing left to find
No god above these blackened seas
No shore that waits for me
Still i sail
Still i sail
Under a nautical star
Let it spin
Let it break
I don’t need a line to take
If this ship goes down tonight
It goes down mine
Nautical star
You lied in light, you lied in time
Nautical star
I bled for every sign
No god above these blackened seas
No mercy written in the deep
Still i sail
Still i sail
Past the nautical star
