"Castaway" lyrics - JERRY CANTRELL

JERRY CANTRELL
"Castaway"

Daybreak
Wind is blowing strong
No escape
Caught on a reef in the storm
Castaway
Licking his cracked lips, sore
Patient, waits
Hoping the rats reach the shore...

[Pre-Chorus:]
Yeah... yeah

Yesterday
Seems a lifetime now
Remembering
Those he left and how
Out in space
Laughing at all below
Island stage
Plays to his thoughts and ego...

[Pre-Chorus:]
Yeah... yeah

[Chorus: Vocalization]

Dusk fall
Fading sun, no firelight
Memories
Amplify his plight
Gathering
Searching for shelter above
Feel the sting, choking on hoarded love...

[Pre-Chorus:]
Yeah... yeah

[Chorus: Vocalization]

[Outro:]
Thin, cold, tired...
Castaway
