Setting Sail - The Generators

She came west under desert skies

Had to leave

That broken home far behind

She went running

About as fast as she can

A father’s crime

A daughter’s life shattered

By the touch of the hand

The Santa Ana winds were blowing

The palm trees were going

Dancing back and forth

Headed for skyscraper lights

With rage inside

Yeah she set her course

She’s going running now

From that broken town

She’ll be leaving now

Leaving it all behind

It was automatic

All the reasons to panic

Who now is gonna throw her a line?

No rescue team

To come on scene

And provide her with a beacon of light

Where the skyline meets this place

Far beneath from these broken dreams?

Under fading stars appears this graveyard

For the ones who’ve gone lost at sea

Setting sail now

Doomed to fail now

Into the rage

Of this on coming storm

Setting sail now

To no avail now

Where lost children

Come up washed ashore

She’s going running now

From this broken town

She’ll be leaving now

Leaving it all behind

Setting sail now

Doomed to fail now

Into the rage

Of this on coming storm

Setting sail now

To no avail now

Where lost children

Come up washed ashore

Heads or tails now

Drifting into

Complete disbelief

Setting sail now

Going to capsize down

Down to the bottom

The bottom of the sea
