Lyrics
The Munjoy Hill fire horn tests the coming fog.
Three forty-seven on the Kegerator log.
My bare feet find the cold spot on the salt-warped floor,
Tracing the grain and listening for the tide to turn the shore.
[Chorus]
The turning bell will sound on the abyssal plain,

[Bridge]
What if the North Atlantic keeps you for its own this time?
A new ghost ship log written in vertebrate and rime.
[Outro]
The turning bell will sound.
Three forty-eight.
