Water

Quiet as sleeping death
Blind
Blind and unfeeling
The air shimmers
Trading death for beauty
As the sorrow echoes out onto
The coast
As if the entire earth has gone ghost

I’m alone
I’m drowning so slow
I am alone
Try to talk to myself but I don’t listen
Drowning slow off the coast
And I’m heading nowhere

There are voices in the air
Of tragedies in the making
Loveless
Nameless
Waves of madness
I disappear into the black waters
You worry that I won’t come back
Or when I do you’ll have no taste
Happiness it melts into dream
Torn to pieces
The air is pierced by screams

I’m alone
And no one knows
Nobody, I’m on my own
Try to talk to myself but I don’t listen
Drowning slow off the coast
And I’m heading nowhere
Quiet as sleeping death
Night seizes day
My dreams are ripped right out of me
Leaving nothing behind but a shadow

Hey see come follow me

I’m alone
I’m drowning so slow
I am alone
And no one knows
Nobody, I’m on my own
Try to talk to myself but I don’t listen
Drowning slow off the coast
And I’m heading nowhere
