Lyrics to Voorhees

periscope extends the lens

veiny hands can't mend your broken little babies remains

we all fall to bits just the same

eyes down for a full house

yeah i love you long time

they christened me just to give me name

now i know that i'm to blame



there was no man in his eyes

and no lights to beam home those ships

can't even extend out his arm

to go and cash in his chips

i wish that i could not so rightly place this



but least i can say that i was there

that i witnessed his demise

but you my lucky son

because of your size

you would not remember



this has sent your only son

to an early grave

what you thought was an accident

was deliberate



there was a twitch in his hand

as i offered him mine

but our captain only cared about his crew

but you just would not remember would you



and when that time does come my brother

and i should offer you my hand

you'll know just what to do

what not to put me through

you must remember



come your expiration

come your sell by date

and there is no companion

it'll be too late

come your expiration

come your sell by date

and there is no companion

it'll be too late



all this misfortune is punishment

he sings of gods that desert him

he falls again

but undeterred he hides from the light
