Story behind the song
The ship of fools is an old allegory that has long been used in Western culture in literature and paintings. With a sense of self-criticism, it describes the world and its human inhabitants as a vessel whose deranged passengers neither know nor care where they are going. Ships of fools featured as wagons in medieval Carnival Parades.
There is something coincident happened when I write this song
Frist I wrote it about 2 months ago,but not finished,and at the night of 31 March all of a sudden there is something inside my head,so I kept on working and working,16 hours later,I finished it,it was 1 April (this song is called Ship of Fools,I didn't realized before)
And then,there is more,in the chorus I worte such lyric:"blessed by the thunder at night",after I recorded my voice,I play it back,I heard a thunder in the track,but I didn't do it,I played each track in solo,try to find where it is,finally I put my headphone down,it was raining outside,so it was a real thunder happen to or should I say mystically been recorded
Lyrics
Is this the flood of civilization
Carried by the wind,the sea is open-end
they get no destination
there is no mercy across the nation
while nature is gone even god is wrong
crazy is desecration
sail under the murky sky
blessed by the thunder at night
and you can hear them hymn(hum) the tune
em... ...
they hum and they hum to the lord
where is the port of deviation
where there is a land,they long to be
find the salvation
but their hope is always on the horizon
when passion is gone their soul is drown
leaving no explanation
sail under the murky sky
blessed by the thunder at night
and you can hear them hymn(hum) the tune
em... ...
they hum and they hum to the lord
