I downloaded this song off Kazaa a while back, and it said it was "Ship of Fools" by Erasure. When I listened, it wasn't that song. Here are some of the lyrics, or at least they should be close:

"We're setting sail
From the place on the map
To which no one has ever returned
Drawn by the promise of the joker and fool
By the light of the crosses that burn
Drawn by the promise of the women and the lace
And the gold and the cotton and pearls
It's a place where they keep all the darkness you need
You sail away from the light of the world on this trip baby

You will pay tomorrow
You're gonna pay tomorrow
You will pay tomorrw
Oh-oh-oh-oh
[Can't tell what lyric is here]
You save me from tomorrow (?)
I don't want to sail with this ship of fools
I wanna run and hide, right now"

Anyway, I think that is pretty close to the lyrics, but it might be a bit off. If anyone could tell me what the title is, I would really appreciate it!
