lyrics

Search lights at sea
They strobe off the blades on the lea
Cut wind, throb with sound
And the weight of the waves pulling you down

And all your days
Have fallen by the waves and find you here
Breath strays in time.

Waste to a fault
On the oceans of your days breaths of salt
Burnt eyes search the lights
For a railing or a hand, some reason to fight

And all your days
Have fallen by the waves and find you here
Breath strays in time.

And all your days
Shackled to the dying and the brave
They’ll stray in time

All that you’ve loved
Leaves you straining for the lights searching above.
