Peril - Maritime

We begin with sages and the onionskin

Heartbeats back the first bite and the original sin

That’s how it is

Survival of the fittest till we’re all outdone

When there is no counting, who is number one

Who can feel the sun

All our lives in peril

With all our lives in stone

You and me and everyone

And everyone that you know knows it

We begin with sages and the onionskin

When there is no counting who is remembering

Who can feel it end

All our lives in peril

With all our lives in stone

You and me, everyone

And everyone that you know knows it’s done
