Track Insight / Lyrics

I kept the lamp lit for the fleet Where salt and heavy iron meet I watched the grey horizon glow While cold north winds began to blow The thunder rolls from far away It turns the morning gold to grey The heavy guns begin to shout And blow the steady candle out One lone helmet in the mud Washed in rain and washed in blood Steel is resting in the clay While the thunder leads the way I walk the shoreline in the haze Counting all the lonely days I find a strap of leather torn Where a young man's hope was born One lone helmet in the mud Washed in rain and washed in blood Steel is resting in the clay While the thunder leads the way The tide comes in to take the shore I cannot hear the cannons roar The water cleans the rusted rim As the evening light grows dim No name is carved upon the shell Just a story none can tell It sits beneath a broken tree Looking out across the sea I bring it home to keep it dry Underneath a winter sky I polish off the grit and grime In this heavy stretch of time One lone helmet in the mud Washed in rain and washed in blood Steel is resting in the clay While the thunder leads the way Just a piece of steel in the clay Until the thunder fades away Fades away Yeah, fades away
