Like Sailing Into A Storm

by Chasing Phantoms

1.
When you took a roller to the writing on the wall, You found that there was nothing you could do. When you drew conclusions, you came running down the hall, Screaming Healing, It's a slow resurrection, learning a lesson in breathing, breathing And bleeding, It's a painful confession, blessed redemption, I'm breathing I'm breathing And somewhere there's a sunrise as the world keeps spinning round And somewhere there's a brother, lying murdered on the ground And the dirt cries out for his crimson blood as it's forced to drink it down Oh where's the healing, the healing? All your light Passing by I turn away with burning eyes All your light breaking through All my ties are anchored in you Save me, Save me I'm suffocating in all your light, all your light All my days Searching for Phantom waves to bring me to shore Save me, save me I'm suffocating in all your light, all your light All your light

You keep me at a distance, now don't you? I guess that's just as well. I won't ask any questions, darling And you don't have to tell Oh how we tear ourselves apart Yeah we tear ourselves apart And we push them away, but there's no one to blame 'Cause we tear ourselves apart All of these moments I wish that I could do over again But here we go, around and around And there's love enough for you Yeah there's love enough for you Oh there's love enough for you, you don't have to go searching I know you hide in the silence Losing yourself in the crowd But despite all your efforts the sunlight is finding you out And there's love enough for you Yeah there's love enough for you Oh there's love enough for you, you don't have to go searching Oh there's love enough for you Yeah there's grace enough for you Oh there's love enough for you, you don't have to go searching May I be transformed I rest in a sacrifice not my own

Home [live] 03:44
When the salt of your skin mixes in with your wounds You've inflicted yourself, oh you're fooling yourself Break it down, break it down like you do Break it down, break it down like you do You've been dying to leave, now you'd kill just to stay And the signs have been pointing in every which way Break it down, break it down like you do Break it down, break it down like you do Oh my home, my home is a place I don't know We've led wandering lives since we stepped from the garden Built a heavenly tower to reach for the stars, and You just broke it down like you do So break me down, break me down Oh my my, won't you make up your mind? Won't you just let it go, let it go? Oh my home, my home is a place I don't know The grass is greener, it's greener on the other side, the other side We always want what we don't have The grass is greener, it's greener on the other side, the other side We always want what we can't have 'Cause we've led wandering lives since we stepped from the garden Built a heavenly tower to reach for the stars, and You just broke it down like you do So break me down, break me down Oh my my, won't you make up your mind? Won't you just let it go, let it go? Oh my home, my home is a place I don't know

Mutineer 02:37
Oh Mutineer, wish you were her This old ship's full of ash and broken souvenirs All my days, all my days are passing by I'm afraid I'm losing sight, I'm losing sight Oh Mutineer, won't you please steer? This old ship's run aground too many times, I fear All my days, all my days are passing by I'm afraid I'm losing sight, I'm losing time But you're no mutineer You're no mutineer, it's me

Too long I've been trying to play it safe Too long I've been timid and afraid Standing planted with my feet on the shore I'm stepping out of this boat into the sea Oh let the skies rain down on me Why are you all pulling me so hard? Pulling me so desperately apart into you, ocean waves I'm stepping out of this boat into the sea Oh let the skies fall down on me Chained beneath the tremors Hear the ocean weep I can feel the memories slipping away In the calm of the deep Though I am under the waves, I will still sing Open my lungs, in comes the sea Open my lungs, in comes the sea

about

David Grandouiller and Greg Evans had planned to write the album called Like Sailing Into a Storm during their senior year of high school in 2012/2013, but other things got in the way. The concept, artwork, and name have been resurrected for a five-song Chasing Phantoms EP, meant to serve as a preview to a full-length album to be released (hopefully) late in 2014. Thanks for listening. We hope you enjoy.
