Fight the Sea |
Rotting driftwood on the foreign shores |
Spilling out into the ocean floor |
And the memory’s all you left without a trace |
Paralyzed with the thoughts receeding |
The current sweeps you with its silent bleeding |
Through the heart into the darkest place |
Turn around, there’s nothing to see here |
Run away, no reason to be here |
It’s the ghost who never goes away |
Turn around, and leave this behind now |
See the ground as it bleeds into sky now |
You fight the sea, you’re always going to drown |
All the secrets that you’re holding |
All the memories you hide |
All the frail thoughts that echo in the corners of your mind |
They won’t even last a moment |
The will soon be swept away |
When the ocean takes you in its arms and carries you away |
You carry all your burdens on the cross around your neck |
You take whatever’s left that you salvage from the wreck |
And that haunted past will follow you like a lost dog on the beach |
Nipping at your trail till you’ve drifted out of reach |
Turn around, there’s nothing to see here |
Run away, no reason to be here |
It’s the ghost who never goes away |
Turn around, and leave this behind now |
See the ground as it bleeds into sky now |
You fight the sea, you’re always going to drown |
The broken-line horizon and the castles made of sand |
You tried to hold it in your hand, you tried to understand it |
But the ocean asks the questions, and it holds the answers too |
It dissolves away the lies about the things you thought you knew |
