Verse 1:
Sea mines on the assembly lines and close behind’s a hundred coffins
Inject them into the veins of the ocean where demons are the ones doing the exorcisms
Chorus 1:
Minefields in the ocean, ticking like a liquid pendulum
Counting down to their explosion, casting out the spirits like an exorcist
Verse 2:
Blindfolded knights who throw their maces up to strike
Any random passerby whether good or evil
Hate and greed assembled in a factory
Now lurking in the sea and spreading out its tentacles
Chorus 2
Bridge:
Aren’t your wars waged on land enough?
Why don’t you just keep your mankind to yourself?
Leave behind your mess for someone else
Sharks will gladly come to your help

Detonator

Verse 1:
Detonate the mines, happens right on time, it might just blow your mind clean off
Only time will tell, swimming on egg shells, the ocean holds its breath for it to go off
Detonator!
Chorus 1:
I don't feel the fire only healing from the light
Raptured from the shrapnel in the twinkling of an eye
Jesus wasn't kidding when he said the end was near
Like a thief in the night I'll disappear
Verse 2:
Halt, put your weapons down, down underground
Until they can’t be found anymore
It's a forgotten war, minefields on the shore, detonating long after the war's over
Detonator!
Chorus 2
Verse 3:
Disconnect the wires, before we all expire, but the water is turning into fire now Everybody down, the bombs have stopped their ticking sound, five seconds till Heaven's all around

O God, please tell me there is more than this.
That this cold abyss is not the end.
Tell me it’s more than an accident, a warning to teach a lesson.
Show me how it’s all part of the plan.
(Did you hear that? Is this submarine haunted?)

Show Me How To Live
04:02
|
|||
|
Verse 1:
And with the early dawn moving right along, I couldn’t buy an ounce full of sleep
And in the aching night under satellites I was not received
I’m built with stolen parts, telephone in my heart
Someone get me a priest
To put my mind to bed, this ringing in my head
Is this the cure or is this a disease?
Chorus 1:
Nail in my hand from my Creator
You gave me life now show me how to live
Nail in my hand from my Creator
You gave me life now show me how to live
Verse 2:
And in the after birth on this quiet Earth
Let the stains remind you
You thought you made a man, you better think again
Before my role defines you
Chorus 2
Bridge:
Into your loving hands I will land and roll out of my skin
And in the final hour I will stand ready to begin
Ready to begin, ready to begin

Hundred Crosses
04:54
|
|||
|
Verse 1:
They say a hundred mines, they forgot to sweep.
A hundred passersby now a hundred casualties.
Casting out the spirits of the innocent.
They've become like an evil exorcist.
Thev’ve become an evil exorcist.
Chorus 1:
I hear/see there are a hundred crosses, floating on the waters,
Unlucky sons and daughters, victims of the war.
Unsuspecting foes of a board room's votes.
Show me just one policy worth them dying/killing for.
Verse 2:
I guess the real question how to win the war,
Is how to make a person not want to use their sword.
You take away their weapons, they'll kill you with their fists.
They'll find a way to be an evil exorcist.
They’ve become an evil exorcist.
Chorus 2
Bridge:
Only ninety-nine crosses I can find.
One mine was left behind, casts my spirit high.
Chorus 3:
Oh, I have become one of those hundred crosses…
I hear there are a hundred voices, joining in the chorus.
A hundred universes suddenly blacked out.
They're lifting me to join them up above the waters,
Where politics and causes have all been long forgot.’

Breaking Waves
03:41
|
|||
|
Verse 1:
Breakers on the sea, advancing steadily. Little by little taking territory. The armies will erode till Pangaea’s covered over and the Earth is once again formless and void.
Chorus 1:
Breaking waves crashing on your accolades. Break you down, water torture down the drain. One by one till your soul is what remains. Break you out, breaking from the breaking waves.
Post-chorus:
Break you down and wash you away
Breaking from the breaking waves
Verse 2:
Break it down and wash it away. Breaking from the breaking waves. Simple H2O crushing your machines. Ships and submarines breaking down to smithereens. The breakers won’t desist, clinging to your wrist like exorcists feeling for the pulse of a human being.

Eternal Father, strong to save
Whose arm doth bind the restless wave
Who bidd’st the mighty ocean deep
Its own appointed limits keep
O, hear us when we cry to Thee
For those in peril on the sea
Amen

Rusty Shipp Nashville, Tennessee
Named after the frontman Russ T. Shipp, the band has created a sound known as Nautical Rock ‘n’ Roll. Characterized by its
dark, underwater atmosphere, haunting vocals, and unconventional riffs, the music is a perfect fusion of grunge and surf rock, though it is most memorable for the Beatlesque hooks in every single song.
