Sea is rising
Running deeper
Takes me through the night
The jagged peace
The razer ease
Will bring you to the warmth
Of my light
Slowly sinking
Steals the tears
And never need the whys
Don't fight the tide
That brings you nearer
All the once was dark
Will be bright
Fall to the edge
Crawl back again
Your yesterdays
Fall far away
All the while
And you run...
Lost in, my world
Locked in my
Lost in, my world
Locked in my world again
No fear
Can harm you
Crawl to the edge
Fall back again
My yesterdays
So far away
Bitten all the while
Dive in, Don't be afraid
Walking from the road you paved
With everything-
And you watch
While the world you built
Fades away
For nothing
Wash away...
(Sea keep rising
Faster, deeper
Brought you through the night
To wash the tears
Numb the fears
And drown me in the cool
