Lyrics to Dark Waters




A cold breeze of dawn I feel on my skin

While I'm waiting on the shore

Fly my sorrow o fly away with the wind

As the waves of dark waters roar

If only I'd recall that forgotten time

Sank in dark waters of yore

I'd gather shards of what was mine

Washed piece by piece ashore



If I could dive deep and grow my own fins

I'd like to swim like a sea serpent swims

Towards the horizon and the morning star

Play in the foams of waves from afar

If I could dive deep and grow my own fins

I'd like to swim like a sea serpent swims

To rule all the seas and the roots of the earth

To shape all new cycles and witness all the dying and rebirth



Surface is my heavens I worship the light

Between semidarkness and eternal night

I see setting sun through a fragmented glass

Firmament sustained by eelgrass



A cold breeze of dawn I feel on my skin

While sailing under grey skies

Fly my sorrow o fly away with the wind

Like vapours from dark waters rise

If only I'd recall that forgotten time

Sank in dark waters of yore

I'd gather shards of what was mine

Washed piece by piece ashore



If I could dive deep and grow my own fins

I'd like to swim like a sea serpent swims

And rule all the seas and the roots of the earth

To let them all know and see what it's worth

If I could dive deep and grow my own fins

I'd like to swim like a sea serpent swims

To shed salty tears for the passing of all

Abyss calls me and I'm not ready to answer the call



Could I dive into the dark

The darkest of the trenches of the deep



Surface is my heavens I worship the light

Between semidarkness and eternal night

I see setting sun through a fragmented glass

Firmament sustained by eelgrass



The blue-grey darkening the increasing pressure

Cooling blood vessels heart rate going low

Blind visual nerves unable to measure

An empty universe waiting for me below

Waiting below



I am the soul of the ocean

Every grain of sand on the seaside

I set the tides in purposive motion

To wash down the shelves my pain to subside



The blue-grey darkening the increasing pressure

Cooling blood vessels heart rate going low

Blind visual nerves unable to measure

An empty universe waiting below
