Lyrics
Instrumental Intro
Intro
Phantom
Intro
Phantom vessels in the night
Frontex pretends they're out of sight
But we see every SOS
While they practice callousness
Verse 1
Ghost ships floating through their zone
Frontex acts like they're unknown
Radar screens go conveniently dark
When desperation leaves its mark
We get the coordinates instead
Count the living and the dead
Pre-Chorus
They make them invisible
To make murder admissible
Chorus
Ferries not frontex, break the silence
Ferries not frontex, stop the violence
Every ghost ship that they ignore
Washes bodies to the shore
Instrumental Break
[Pre-Chorus] They make them invisible
To make murder admissible
Verse 2
Their silence is complicity
In this maritime atrocity
Distress calls on channel 16
Frontex acts like they're not seen
Push-backs disguised as rescue ops
Until the overcrowded boat just stops
Instrumental Break
Pre-Chorus
They make them invisible
To make murder admissible
Chorus
Ferries not frontex, see the truth
Ferries not frontex, for the youth
No more phantoms in the sea
Ferries not frontex, set them free
Guitar Solo
Bridge
International waters, international shame
Ghost ships sinking while they play the blame game
We document every single case
While they erase without a trace
Final Chorus
Ferries not frontex, dreams come true
Ferries not frontex, me and you
Building bridges, not more walls
Ferries not frontex, justice calls
Ferry dreams, ferry dreams
Nothing's impossible as it seems
Outro
Close your eyes and visualize
Ferries not frontex, no more lies
Just safe passage, just a ride
With dignity and hope inside
