This is about the Halifax explosion

lyrics

“Ocean of Answers”

Now who are you to put me down
When I've seen so many brothers drown
That thin fake smile you're wearin’ now
In time will be a frown
Welcome to the year subs shot us down
Few ships to build in this barren town
Gonna drown my sorrows underground
No convoy in sight
Ships sank to the ocean ground

Aye, aye, up she goes
The flames are high wondrin'
Iffin' anyone knows
It'll be one minute before she blows
And I guess that's all I know

Mont Blanc and the Emo did let one go
Went a mile in the air with a tidal flow
The survivors left had to be brave
To the cold they were a slave
Look at these people standin’ round
Round up the dead
Homes blown to the ground
Got somethin’ to say better say it now
When you die they'll wonder how

Aye, aye, up she goes
The flames are high wondrin'
Iffin' anyone knows
It'll be one minute before she blows
And I guess that's all I know

The blast had enough behind her to
Obliterate those nearby the view
Thousands were either maimed or killed
This was the worst that God ever willed
Now just one moment stop the train
If you want these things to be the same
The ammo ship is set to blow
Well hey my good lad you were nice to know
