The Watcher In The Storm
by CJ Frei
Lyrics
Verse 1
Black skies rolling, the sea turned gray
Old hands whispered, "Don't look that way."
Lightning split where the cliffs stand worn
There he stood through the driving storm.
Not a sailor, not a king
Silent as remembering.
Pre-Chorus
Every captain knows the tale
Passed from fathers under sail.
Chorus
The Watcher in the storm
Eyes upon the sea
Standing through the thunder
Waiting endlessly
No voice ever spoken
No footsteps ever found
Only when the heavens break
Does the Watcher come around.
Verse 2
Many chased the phantom shore
None returned to tell us more.
Some said warning, some said fate
Some believed he'd guard the brave.
When the waves began to rise
You could see those ancient eyes.
Bridge
Maybe god...
Maybe man...
Maybe just a story
Too old to understand.
But every storm
Still tells his name.
Final Chorus
The Watcher in the storm
Keeper of the deep
Standing through the ages
Where forgotten legends sleep.
When the thunder calls our names
And hope is nearly gone
Some still swear they see him there...
The Watcher...
Watching on.
